1. National Centre for the Performing Arts (China)
The National Centre for the Performing Arts (NCPA) (simplified Chinese: 国家大; traditional Chinese: 國家大劇院; pinyin: Guójiā dà jùyuàn; literally: National Grand Theatre), and colloquially described as The Egg, is an opera house in Beijing, People's Republic of China. The Centre, an ellipsoid dome of titanium and glass surrounded by an artificial lake, seats 5,452 people in three halls and is almost 12,000 m² in size. It was designed by French architect Paul Andreu. Construction started in December 2001 and the inaugural concert was held in December 2007.



Located near Tiananmen Square , the 490,485-square-foot glass-and-titanium National Grand Theater, scheduled to open in 2008, seems to float above a man-made lake. Intended to stand out amid the Chinese capital's bustling streets and ancient buildings, the structure has garnered criticism among Bejing's citizens for clashing with classic landmarks like the Monument to the People's Heroes (dedicated to revolutionary martyrs), the vast home of the National People's Congress, or Tiananmen Gate itself (the Gate of Heavenly Peace).

French architect Paul Andreu is no stranger to controversy -- or to innovative forms. A generation ago, in 1974, his untraditional design for Terminal 1 of Paris 's Charles de Gaulle airport was criticized for its unusual curves, yet Andreu's groundbreaking, futuristic building later was seen to distinguish de Gaulle from more generic European and international air hubs. (The same airport's Terminal 2E, also designed by Andreu, gained attention in 2004 when it collapsed, tragically killing four people.)

Beijing 's daring National Grand Theater is as much a spectacle as the productions that will be staged inside in the 2,416-seat opera house, the 2,017-seat concert hall, and the 1,040-seat theater. At night, the semi-transparent skin will give passersby a glimpse at the performance inside one of three auditoriums, a feature that highlights the building's public nature

Pavilion Features
Nikolay Nosov, a famous Soviet writer of children's literature, once said that the best city in the world should be the favorite one among children. His flower city, a place in the "Adventures of DUNNO and His Friends," has attracted a great number of people. Following the conception of Nosov, the Russia Pavilion has been designed as an ideal city resembling cites in the fairyland, which will give people the impression of a children's paradise. It features 12 irregularly shaped towers in white, red and gold. A 15-meter-tall central building dubbed the "Civilization Cube" links the towers.

Manual for the design of reinforced concrete building structure 2002


In 1985 the Institution published its ‘green’ book, the Manual for the design of reinforced concrete building structures, drafted jointly with the ICE.
Written by and for practising designers, in a concise format, it reflects the logical sequence of operations which a designer follows, and was compatible with British standard BS 8110 at that time.
This revised 2nd edition encapsulates changes arising from:
- amendments to BS 8110, which was republished in 1997 and further amended in 2001;
- the publication of BS 8002 for the design of earth retaining structures; and
- the publication of BS 8666, which superseded BS 4466.
All the amendments are signified by a line in the margin.
The general scope of the manual remains unchanged in that it still covers the majority of reinforced concrete buildings.
It continues to offer practical guidance on how to design safe, robust and durable structures

Design Guide 5 For concrete filled hollow section columns under static and seismic loading
Author: R. Bergmann, C. Matsui, C. Meinsma, D. Dutta | Size: 17.6 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: TÜV Verlag | Year: 1995 | pages: 69 | ISBN: 3824902982


One of the main physical properties of a hollow profile is its optimal efficiency, superior to all other structural elements, in resisting compression. In filling the hollow profile with concrete, one, increase its structural capacity considerably or, potentially, one decreases, for a given load, clutter in reducing the section of a pillar. An excellent resistance to fire is also obtained in this way, without having ecourse to external protection. This aspect is already the object of a precedent dimensioning guide.
This guide is the fifth in the set of works by the CIDECT under the general title "Construction with Hollow Steel Sections". It is destined to help engineers and businessmen anxious to use concrete filled hollow profiles as pillars, as much in buildings as in bridges, under static loads but also under seismic conditions because these profiles behave remarkably in earthquakes

Concrete Fracture Models and Applications
Author: Shailendra Kumar, Sudhirkumar V Barai | Size: 5.1 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2011 | pages: 406 | ISBN: 3642167632


Cementitious materials, rocks and fibre-reinforced composites commonly termed as quasibrittle, need a different fracture mechanics approach to model the crack propagation study because of the presence of significant size of fracture process zone ahead of the crack-tip. Recent studies show that concrete structures manifest three important stages in fracture process: crack initiation, stable crack propagation and unstable fracture or failure. Fracture Mechanics concept can better explain the above various stages including the concepts of ductility, size-effect, strain softening and post-cracking behavior of concrete and concrete structures.

The book presents a basic introduction on the various nonlinear concrete fracture models considering the respective fracture parameters. To this end, a thorough state-of-the-art review on various aspects of the material behavior and development of different concrete fracture models is presented. The development of cohesive crack model for standard test geometries using commonly used softening functions is shown and extensive studies on the behavior of cohesive crack fracture parameters are also carried out. The subsequent chapter contains the extensive study on the double-K and double-G fracture parameters in which some recent developments on the related fracture parameters are illustrated including introduction of weight function method to Double-K Fracture Model and formulization of size-effect behavior of the double-K fracture parameters. The application of weight function approach for determining of the KR-curve associated with cohesive stress distribution in the fracture process zone is also presented. Available test data are used to validate the new approach. Further, effect of specimen geometry, loading condition, size-effect and softening function on various fracture parameters is investigated. Towards the end, a comparative study between different fracture parameters obtained from various models is presented

M.P. Nielsen, L.C. Hoang, "Limit Analysis and Concrete Plasticity, Third Edition" 
C.RC Press | 2010 | ISBN: 143980396X | 816 pages | PDF | 13,2 MB


First published in 1984, Limit Analysis and Concrete Plasticity explains for advanced design engineers the principles of plasticity theory and its application to the design of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures, providing a thorough understanding of the subject, rather than simply applying current design formulas.

Updated and revised throughout, Limit Analysis and Concrete Plasticity, Third Edition adds—

Reinforcement design formulas for three-dimensional stress fields that enable design of solid structures (also suitable for implementation in computer-based lower bound optimizations)
Improved explanations of the crack sliding theory and new solutions for beams with arbitrary curved shear cracks, continuous beams, lightly shear reinforced beams and beams with large axial compression
More accurate treatment of and solutions for beams with circular cross-section
Applications of crack sliding theory to punching shear problems
New solutions that illustrate the implication of initial cracking on load-carrying capacity of disks
Yield condition for the limiting case of isotropically cracked disk

The authors also devote an entirely new chapter to a recently developed theory of rigid-plastic dynamics for seismic design of concrete structures. In comparison with time-history analyses, the new theory is simpler to use and leads to large material savings. With this chapter, plasticity design methods for both statical and dynamical loads are now covered by the book.
