Concrete-filled Tubular Members and Connections (Paperback): Xiao-Ling Zhao, Lin-Hai Han, Hui Lu Concrete-filled Tubular Members and Connections (Paperback)
Xiao-Ling Zhao, Lin-Hai Han, Hui Lu
R2,258 Discovery Miles 22 580 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Using steel and concrete together utilizes the beneficial material properties of both elements. Concrete filled steel tubes represent a good example of a concrete - steel composite structure, and are particularly useful as columns in high rise buildings and bridge piers. They can be used in a range of fields, from civil and industrial construction through to the mining industry. Several aspects of concrete filled tubes have received little coverage in existing design standards, design guides or relevant books, but are addressed here: construction methods or quality and their effect on performance, confinement, creep effects, pre-load effects, size effects, seismic behaviour and post-fire behaviour, worked examples under practical conditions, numerical simulations, mechanics models, concrete-filled double skin tubes, SCC(self-consolidating concrete)-filled tubes, HPHSC (high performance high strength concrete)-filled tubes, high strength steel and thin-walled tubes filled with concrete, and fiber reinforced polymer strengthening of concrete filled tubes. This book not only summarizes the research performed to date on concrete-filled tubular members and connections but also compares the design rules in various standards (Eurocode 4, AISI-LRFD, ACI, AIJ and Chinese Standard), and provides design examples. An invaluable guide for professionals and a detailed source of information for graduate students and beyond.

From Principles to Practice in Education for Intercultural Citizenship (Paperback): Michael Byram, Irina Golubeva, Han Hui,... From Principles to Practice in Education for Intercultural Citizenship (Paperback)
Michael Byram, Irina Golubeva, Han Hui, Manuela Wagner
R1,502 Discovery Miles 15 020 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The contributors to this volume have collaborated to present their work on introducing competences in intercultural communication and citizenship into foreign language education. The book examines how learners and teachers think about citizenship and interculturality, and shows how teachers and researchers from primary to university education can work together across continents to develop new curricula and pedagogy. This involves the creation of a new theory of intercultural citizenship and a procedure for implementation. The book is written by teacher researchers who aim to help other teachers, and concludes with reflections on the lessons they have learnt which will help others to implement these ideas in their own practice. The book is essential reading for foreign language educators and researchers, students in pre-service teacher training and teachers in in-service training.

A Study of Teachers Perceptions of ICC Teaching in China (Paperback): Han Hui A Study of Teachers Perceptions of ICC Teaching in China (Paperback)
Han Hui
R2,109 Discovery Miles 21 090 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book is an inquiry into teachers' belief of inter/cultural teaching (IC) in the Chinese English language teaching (ELT) context in which teachers' understanding is fundamental to any pedagogical practice or reform. Through a questionnaire survey among Chinese English teachers, the author tends to find out the status quo of teachers' perception on various aspects of IC-oriented ELT context in China, including teacher's perspective of the objectives of language and culture teaching; teacher's understanding of 'culture'; the cultural topics they favored to teach in the classroom; the techniques they use to teach culture; time allocation to cultural teaching and finally their attitudes towards intercultural communicative competence . The results suggest that the Chinese English teachers' conceptualization of ICC and its relevance to ELT is vague in spite of their perceived goal and desire to develop students' ICC. Such results indicate the significance of intercultural teacher education and interculturalization of ELT in the Chinese context.
