Prepared by the Professional Exam Development Subcommittee, Architectural Engineering Institute of ASCE Principles and Practice of Engineering: Architectural Engineering Sample Questions and Solutions, Second Edition is an essential resource to assist candidates who are preparing for the Principles and Practice of Engineering (PE) examination in architectural engineering. This revised edition lists all questions in the actual test format, which consists of 80 multiple-choice questions, administered in two 4-hour sessions. Each answer is accompanied by solutions that provide test takers with strategies to successfully complete the exam. This book specifies the exam content area for subjects that were identified for architectural engineering. Each content area is assigned an approximate percentage of the exam that reflects the frequency and importance to the practice of architectural engineering. Topics include: Licensing Requirements; Description of Examinations; Examination Development; Scoring Procedures; Examination Procedures; and Instructions. Errata are available (PDF, 107 KB)

This text delivers a fundamental coverage for advanced undergraduates and postgraduates of structural engineering, and professionals working in industrial and academic research. The methods for structural analysis are explained in detail, being based on basic static, kinematics and energy methods previously discussed in the text. A chapter deals with calculations of deformations which provides for a good understanding of structural behaviour. Attention is given to practical applications whereby each theoretical analysis is reinforced with worked examples. A major industrial application consist

Concrete's multifaceted nature has made it very popular today with planners and builders. Besides the enormous potential inherent in its load-bearing capacity, the material offers a diversity of properties and surface characteristics. This publication focuses not just on the design and construction of concrete load-bearing structures, but also especially on concrete's material characteristics and thus on the haptic and sensual side of this material.The Modern Concrete Construction Manual provides planners with expert information on concrete as a construction material, ranging from manufacturing to material characteristics, to the design of concrete load-bearing structures, including details on current digital design and production process options. Designed as a standard reference work, the publication offers comprehensive and detailed insights into a range of topics, including cost-effectiveness, energy and sustainability, renovation, design and interior design. An extensive index of successful projects, with a selection of real-life examples, provides inspiration, while inviting readers to make modern use of this classic construction material.
