Introduction and Laboratory Testing

Beschreibung

Civil Engineering Materials: Introduction and Laboratory Testing discusses the properties, characterization procedures, and analysis techniques of primary civil engineering materials. It presents the latest design considerations and uses of engineering materials as well as theories for fully understanding them through numerous worked mathematical examples. The book also includes important laboratory tests which are clearly described in a step-by-step manner and further illustrated by high-quality figures. Also, analysis equations and their applications are presented with appropriate examples and relevant practice problems, including Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) styled questions as well those found on the American Concrete Institute (ACI) Concrete Field Testing Technician - Grade I certification exam.

Features:

• Includes numerous worked examples to illustrate the theories presented
• Presents Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination sample questions in each chapter
• Reviews the ACI Concrete Field Testing Technician - Grade I certification exam
• Utilizes the latest laboratory testing standards and practices
• Includes additional resources for instructors teaching related courses
