\u003cp\u003eWhat makes a Bic click? Why do squirt guns squirt? And how do pop-up thermometers know it’s time to pop? Using this compilation of “Everyday Engineering” columns from NSTA’s award-winning journal Science Scope, engage middle-schoolers in hands-on investigations of the science and engineering behind objects they probably take for granted. The collection consists of 14 activities. Each includes a clear explanation of the science and history behind an item’s development plus a materials list, student data sheets, and safety suggestions. The collection is intended to be useful to classroom teachers as well as scout leaders, engineers leading outreach activities, after-school and summer enrichment program staff s, and parents. In addition to exposing young people to the marvels of design behind seemingly simple objects, Everyday Engineering may just spark a lifelong interest in engineering. \u003c/p\u003e

Engineering Geology

Engineering Geology By:David George Price,Michael de Freitas Published on 2009 by Springer Science & Business Media Click The Button Below To Download The Book This book is written to explain the influence ground conditions can have upon engineering with rocks and soils, and upon designing, analysing and executing an engineered response to the geological and geomorphological processes acting on them; these subjects form the essence of Engineering Geology. The text is written for students of the subject, either geologists or engineers, who encounter the challenge of idealising the ground and its processes for the purposes of design and of quantifying them for the purpose of analysis. With this in mind the book describes how geology can dictate the design of ground investigations, influence the interpretation of its findings, and be incorporated into design and analysis. The reader is constantly reminded of basic geology; the |simple| things that constitute the |big picture|, a negle...
