ASCE ( American Society of Civil Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Civil Engineers represents more than 150,000 members of the civil engineering profession in 177 countries. Founded in 1852, ASCE is the nation’s oldest engineering society. ASCE stands at the forefront of a profession that plans, designs, constructs, and operates society’s economic and social engine – the built environment – while protecting and restoring the natural environment.

Stresses from Loads over Rectangular Areas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The fundamental solution for the stresses induced in a semi-infinite isotropic homogeneous elastic medium by a concentrated point load applied normally to its plane surface is extended to an optimally designed rectangular ...
Generalized Beam Element on Two‐Parameter Elastic Foundation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A stiffness matrix and nodal load vector of a beam element on a two‐parameter elastic foundation is developed for concentrated loads, concentrated moments, and linearly distributed forces. The formulation is based on the ...
Torsional Resistance of Single Pile in Layered Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Analysis and mathematical solutions are presented for a torsionally loaded pile embedded in two-layered soil deposit assuming elastic behavior. Soil shear modulus is assumed to be constant in each layer or to vary linearly ...
Use of Fibers and Welded-Wire Reinforcement in Construction of Slabs on Ground
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Different types of fiber-reinforced concrete have been advocated and used as a replacement for welded-wire reinforcement (WWR) in slabs on ground, leading at times to conflicting opinion and/or unrealistic expectation about ...
Free Vibration of Partially Supported Piles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Solutions for the natural response of partially supported piles assuming soil to be a Winkler model are presented for the two cases when both ends are either simply supported or free. The effect of axial load is considered ...
