China, which seems&amp;nbsp;to complete greatest infrastructure projects on a routine basis, has claimed another world-beater with the construction of the longest sea bridge.

According to Xinhua, the bridge has the world's longest cross-sea span.The 41.58-km, eight-lane Qingdao Jiaozhou Bay Bridge, connecting the urban district of the city to its Huangdao district, cost 14.8 billion yuan ($2.3 </description><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNA-aaPZRGyCozPumUDyZIeeanqZ0AvzEsxOuT0X4cGgufjVzG5SxF4RW4PV706Kxi5UmpiRnGXZzyTMmvWBzhp94FfvWxxzk80debU8XoF3HKS36mMK_UcDoVFmwFSAnc7jP7iM7b6glz/s72-c/large.jpg" width="72"/><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">2</thr:total></item><item><title>Truss bridges</title><link>http://pentscivil.blogspot.com/2011/07/truss-bridges.html</link><category>Bridges</category><category>Design</category><category>Steel</category><author>noreply@blogger.com (pents)</author><pubDate>Sat, 9 Jul 2011 03:37:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-672924583190345426.post-2512059844342745024</guid><description>&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;

&amp;nbsp;Introduction
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; As discussed in earlier chapters the main advantages of structural steel
over other construction materials are its strength and ductility. It has a higher
strength to cost ratio in tension and a slightly lower strength to cost ratio in
compression when compared with concrete. The stiffness to weight ratio of steel
is much </description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">1</thr:total></item><item><title>Advanced structural forms</title><link>http://pentscivil.blogspot.com/2011/07/advanced-structural-forms.html</link><category>Design</category><category>Steel</category><author>noreply@blogger.com (pents)</author><pubDate>Sat, 9 Jul 2011 02:45:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-672924583190345426.post-3816892882563989469</guid><description>&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;

General


The primary reference at water-level recording stations is a set of stable bench-marks, installed in
locations where their level should not change. Upon initial set-up of a station, the levels of the
relevant parts of the installation are established and recorded by means of accurate levelling.
At least every two years, the levels of the staff gauges, </description><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh83f3NWyf4wZE_SIOTNidCwvyp2XpitRauuV4Nr3cWg64IcI3rClmU2iMtmqC2F6_CZvHCHFW-lrAZK46j3Krt6ywtwl7rIhOBzD24eP9QJi3rAF7eIq-C3Qkp9-sjNkmDZtAJbMHt4smC/s72-c/civil+engineering+survey.png" width="72"/><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>Non-destructive Testing for Concrete Structures</title><link>http://pentscivil.blogspot.com/2011/07/non-destructive-testing-for-concrete.html</link><category>concrete</category><author>noreply@blogger.com (pents)</author><pubDate>Mon, 4 Jul 2011 11:39:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-672924583190345426.post-2549627826339114863</guid><description>Demand for the development of non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques for
