Dit boek behandelt de algemene kenmerken van verbindingen in staalconstructies en het berekenen van mechanische verbindingsmiddelen en lassen volgens NEN-EN 1993 (Eurocode 3).

* Hoofdstuk 1 bespreekt de rol van verbindingen in een staalconstructie en benoemt de verschillende onderdelen. Ook komen de belangrijkste aspecten bij het ontwerp en de detaillering aan de orde en wordt ingegaan op de rol van de computer bij het ontwerpen en berekenen van een staalconstructie.

* Hoofdstuk 2 gaat over h...

Dit boek behandelt de kenmerken en constructiesystemen van stalen hallen en het ontwerp van een éénbeukige geschoorde hal volgens Eurocode 3.

• Hoofdstuk 1 gaat over de bouwopgave van hallen en behandelt de algemene (niet-constructieve) aspecten die te maken hebben met het ontwerp van een (stalen) hal, zoals: de typologie en gebruiksfuncties, de verschillende opdrachtgevers, de bedrijfsactiviteiten en het programma van eisen, het bouwproces, de bouwkosten én de duurzaamheid.

Traditionally, Arnold Toynbee and Nikolai Kondratieff have held that the Industrial Revolution began between 1776 and 1780, around the time of the invention of James Watt’s atmospheric Steam Engine. This revolution, supposedly arose suddenly, as a spontaneous ‘Big Bang’ event that created The Industrial Revolution, akin to a Virgin Birth without precedence.

There is an important historical reason for systematically tracing the historic roots of the 18th-century Industrial Revolution ba...

What Went Wrong? 6th Edition provides a complete analysis of the design, operational, and management causes of process plant accidents and disasters. Co-author Paul Amyotte has built on Trevor Kletz's legacy by incorporating questions and personal exercises at the end of each major book section. Case histories illustrate what went wrong and why it went wrong, and then guide readers in how to avoid similar tragedies and learn without having to experience the loss incurred by others.

This proven and internationally recognized text teaches the methods of engineering design as a condition of successful product development. It breaks down the design process into phases and then into distinct steps, each with its own working methods. The book provides more examples of product development; it also tightens the scientific bases of its design ideas with new solution fields in composite components, building methods, mechatronics and adaptronics.

The economics of design and develo...

Based on a former popular course of the same title, Concepts of Chemical Engineering for Chemists outlines the basic aspects of chemical engineering for chemistry professionals. It clarifies the terminology used and explains the systems methodology approach to process design and operation for chemists with limited chemical engineering knowledge. The book provides practical insights into all areas of chemical engineering with well explained worked examples and case studies.

The new edition con...
