Description

This useful reference book not only embraces the whole scope of civil and structural engineering but also includes wherever relevant, the fields of drawing-office practice, electrical engineering, hydraulics, mechanical engineering, mining, photogrammetry, railways, sewage disposal, soil mechanics, statistics, structural design and topographical surveying. This third edition has been brought completely up-to-date and metricated throughout. It contains entries concerning the most modern techniques - such as electronic distance measurement - to have been adopted since the original edition was published in 1980. The book also contains a table of civil engineering units with their conversion factors.
