Finite element Design of Concrete Structures

CONTENT :

Truss and beam structures
Shear walls and deep beams
Slabs
Shell structures
Three-dimensional building models

Over the last few years, electronic data processing has changed

the work of engineers throughout all fields of construction. This

is particularly true for design of structures, doing which is

impossible to imagine today without the help of computer

software. Even simple structures such as, for example, a simply

supported reinforced concrete beam under uniform loading, are

designed using the help now easily available from computers.

One must admire this. In many cases, these computer

calculations are faster, less costly and thus more profitable than

using manual calculations.

Presentation : Electric Vehicules & Waste management

As everybody know , the field : construction technology management it related with managing of project (energy , sustainable , building (passive , thermal ...)  , construction site ( foundation , slab ...) , environment...)
NB: I don't have more space, it's because of that i share it with you in Dropox :
https://www.dropbox.com/home/Presentations?preview=electric+vehicules.ppt
https://www.dropbox.com/home/Presentations?preview=Waste+Management.pptx
1- waste management 

•The collection, transportation, and disposal of garbage, sewage, and other waste products.

Waste management encompasses management of all processes and resources for  proper handling of

waste materials, from maintenance of waste transport trucks and dumping facilities to complianc with

health codes and environmental regulations.

2- electic vehicules:

lElectric vehicles, such as hybrid car is a clean car that runs on electricity instead of fuel. It is

therefore a sensible solution to struggle against pollution.

lHowever, production and storage of electricity consumed by the engine causing various forms of

pollution.

lElectric cars are more urban vehicles.

What do you think about this Idea!

Civil engineering : Elements, Qualities and ideas

The civil engineering profession is not less pervasive for a very long time, as evidenced by the Roman roads and aqueducts. Historically, civil engineering has designed and built the necessary infrastructure to well-being. Transport networks today are more complex, the boldest and most diverse construction materials, but the mission remains the same: to provide the company the equipment it needs.?

Civil engineering elements:
Whether it's the elements of bridges, buildings, dams, or tunnels, structures, water supply, energy, or protection against natural hazards, or transportation planning, civil engineering projects are part of a long-term perspective, which means taking into account their sustainability and their impact on the environment or the development territorial, economic and social aspects.

Qualities of civil engineer:

As an civil engineer, you are helping not only to the design, planning and implementation of the infrastructure, but also to its maintenance and operation. Depending on the size of the project, one and the same person may be entrusted with all of these tasks, or participate in a team work

What is your idea?

In addition to mastering the basic techniques of construction, you must also be creative, in order to propose solutions that can get a membership as wide as possible to your projects.
