Product #003-0018 — $39.00 $30.00
Crane Safety on Construction Sites (ASCE Manuals and Reports
on Engineering Practice No. 93) was written to aid the construction
industry in the management of crane operations. Crane operations
in construction range from unloading and setting equipment on
a one-time basis to using numerous cranes that perform multiple
tasks on larger complex projects. This manual addresses these
variables by clearly defining and assigning crane management
responsibilities. It discusses issues such as safety plans, responsibilities,
supervision and management, operations, training, manufacture,
crane safety devices, and regulations in some detail as they
relate to crane management. Appendixes are provided that list
additional resources, manufacturers of crane safety devices,
and explore case studies of crane accidents. |

The information regarding the dynamic response of lattice towers
is currently scattered throughout the literature, making it difficult
for the practicing engineer to obtain the information necessary
for design purposes. The Task Committee prepared this report
by compiling and clarifying current methodologies for the dynamic
response of communication towers in a single source. Both self-supporting
lattice towers and guyed lattice masts (guyed lattice towers)
are included.

This Manual issues methods to improve the earthquake response
of electric power systems. It deals with major power system elements-power
generating stations, transmission and distribution lines, substations,
system communications and control, and ancillary facilities and
functions. A large portion of the document is devoted to high-voltage
substations, as this is where most power system damage has been
concentrated.

ASCE 7-02 is the basis for the extreme wind loads of the 2002
NESC and will form the basis for the ice/wind combined loads
of the 2007 NESC. The revised Minimum Design Loads for Buildings
and Other Structures, SEI/ASCE 7-02, gives the latest consensus
requirements for dead, live, soil, flood, wind, snow, rain, ice,
and earthquake loads, and their combinations, that are suitable
for inclusion in building codes and other documents. Revisions
incorporated in SEI/ASCE 7-02 include significant changes made
to the following sections: general provisions, load combinations,
live loads, flood loads, wind loads, snow loads, earthquake loads,
and atmospheric ice loads. |

When subsurface utilities are discovered during the construction
phase, the costs of conflict resolution and the potential for
catastrophic damages are at their highest. That is why the collection
and systematic depiction of reliable data for existing subsurface
utilities is critical if engineers are to make informed decisions
and support risk management protocols regarding a projectýýýs
impact on these utilities. CI/ASCE Standard 38-02 presents a
credible system for classifying the quality of utility location
information that is placed in design plans. The Standard addresses
issues such as: how utility information can be obtained; what
technologies are available to obtain that information; how that
information can be conveyed to the information users; who should
be responsible for typical collection and depiction tasks; what
factors determine which utility quality level attribute to assign
to data; and what the relative costs and benefits of the various
quality levels are. Used as a reference or as part of a specification,
the Standard will assist engineers, project and utility owners,
and constructors in developing strategies to reduce risk by improving
the reliability of information on existing subsurface utilities
in a defined manner. |

This IEEE Standars product is part of the Color Books family.
The IEEE Yellow Book provides plant engineers with a reference
source for the fundamentals of safe and reliable maintenance
and operation of industrial and commercial power systems, regardless
of system size or complexity. The most effective utilization
of the information contained in this guide would be its inclusion
in a long-term maintenance and operation strategy that is tailored
to the individual needs of each power system. This strategy would
ensure long-term reliability and would include a procedure for
auditing performance. To ensure the safety, reliability, maintenance,
and operation of systems, the IEEE Yellow Book establishes specific
procedures. Information is provided to offer guidance for the
establishment of administrative and control procedures, as well
as the organizational capabilities necessary to ensure reliable
system operation. The level of performance reliability is stressed
and several maintenance strategies are reviewed, including record-keeping,
testing and inspection methods, and auditing maintenance and
operation performance. Several chapters in the book are entirely
devoted to safety issues, such as the review of safety equipment
and recommendations for the management of unusual or hazardous
activities. |
