商品描述

This book provides a foundation to understand the development of sustainability in civil engineering, and tools to address the three pillars of sustainability: economics, environment, and society. It includes case studies in the five major areas of civil engineering: environmental, structural, geotechnical, transportation, and construction management. This second edition is updated throughout and adds new chapters on construction engineering as well as an overview of the most common certification programs that revolve around environmental sustainability.

　

Features:

  • Updated throughout and adds two entirely new chapters

  • Presents a review of the most common certification programs in sustainability

  • Offers a blend of numerical and writing-based problems, as well as numerous application-based examples that utilize concepts found on the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam

  • Includes several practical case studies

  • Offers a solution manual for instructors

　

Fundamentals of Sustainability in Civil Engineering is intended for upper-level civil engineering sustainability courses. A unique feature is that concepts found in the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam were targeted to help senior-level students refresh and prepare.

Andrew Braham is an associate professor of civil engineering at the University of Arkansas. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin with a BS in May 2000 and an MS in May 2002. From June 2002 through December 2004, he worked with Koch Materials Company as a field engineer and a research engineer. In June 2005, he returned to school for doctoral work at the University of Illinois and graduated in December 2008. For the next two years, from February 2009 to November 2010, Dr. Braham was a postdoctoral research fellow at Southeast University in Nanjing, China. In November 2010, Dr. Braham began work in the Civil Engineering Department at the University of Arkansas, where he has continued to study transportation materials while expanding into sustainability. A major component of Dr. Braham's laboratory investigates asphalt emulsion, pavement maintenance, and pavement rehabilitation. He has performed research for regional, state, and national funding agencies, along with private industry. He teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in transportation engineering, pavement design, pavement materials, and sustainability. You can find out more about Dr. Braham at www.andrewbraham.com.
