"This book is written from the perspective of a practicing engineer with over 35 years of experience now working in the academic world to pass on lessons learned over the course of a structural engineering career. It covers the essential topics that will enable beginning structural engineers to gain an advanced understanding prior to entering the workforce, as well as those topics which may receive little, or no, attention in a typical undergraduate curriculum. For example, many new structural engineers are faced with issues regarding estimating collapse loadings during earthquakes and establishing fatigue requirements for cyclic loading- but are typically not taught the underlying methodologies for a full understanding. Features: Combines advanced practice-oriented guidance on structural building and bridge design in a single volume. Presents a detailed treatment of earthquake ground motion from multiple specifications (ASCE 7-16, ASCE 4-16, ASCE 43-05, AASHTO). Includes calculation details for the advanced student as well as the practicing structural engineer. Provides practical example problems and numerous photographs from the author's projects throughout. A Practical Course in Advanced Structural Design will serve as a useful text for graduate and upper-level undergraduate civil engineering students as well as practicing structural engineers"--

LRFD Bridge Design

This book examines and explains material from the 9th edition of the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, including deck and parapet design, load calculations, limit states and load combinations, concrete and steel I-girder design, bearing design, and more. With increased focus on earthquake resiliency, two separate chapters– one on conventional seismic design and the other on seismic isolation applied to bridges– will fully address this vital topic. The primary focus is on steel and concrete I-girder bridges, with regard to both superstructure and substructure design. 
Features: 
Includes several worked examples for a project bridge as well as actual bridges designed by the author 
Examines seismic design concepts and design details for bridges 
Presents the latest material based on the 9th edition of the LRFD Bridge Design Specifications 
Covers fatigue, strength, service, and extreme event limit states 
Includes numerous solved problems and exercises at the end of each chapter to illustrate the concepts presented 
LRFD Bridge Design: Fundamentals and Applications will serve as a useful text for graduate and upper-level undergraduate civil engineering students as well as practicing structural engineers.

The Honour Drum is a uniquely envisioned and crafted project shared between two Canadian friends—an Indigenous woman from the West Coast and a non-Indigenous man from Ontario—to reach children, families and classrooms across Canada and around the world with a message of great beauty and truth that should not be ignored. This vibrant book is an important starting place for learning and insight that is vital and, for many people of all ages, overdue. The Honour Drum is a love letter to the Indigenous people of Canada and a humble bow to Indigenous cultures around the world.
