IDC Books - Technical Training that Works
Civil Engineering
Civil engineers design and construct our infrastructure. If it’s on the ground, civil and structural engineers are involved in the design and construction stages. Civil engineers will also plan, design, construct, maintain and recycle the structures in communities such as dams, bridges, roads, buildings, pipelines, railways and tunnels.
Civil and structural engineering short courses by IDC Video provide professional development for practicing engineers and technicians, and offer learning opportunities for technical personnel working in a field other than civil and structural engineering. Course outcomes cover the above listed subjects above and more.
SE-E - Best Practice in Sewage and Effluent Treatment Technologies
This manual has tips and tricks to help you to install an effective Sewage and Effluent Treatment system.
$139.94 Ex Tax: $127.22
CT-E - Designing, Specifying and Constructing with Modern Concrete
This manual deals with the manufacture, design and maintenance of concrete, including details about ingredients and how quality and quantity affects the final product. Other areas covered are: concrete specifications standards and codes concepts such as ready-mix, precast and prestressed concrete and their applications suggestions for best practice for protection and maintenance of concrete.
$139.94 Ex Tax: $127.22
HW-E - Hazardous Waste Management and Pollution Prevention
This manual provides an excellent introduction to mastering the management of hazardous waste materials as well as preventing contamination of the environment. Other areas covered are: legal and regulatory aspects of pollution handling hazardous waste materials within your plant reducing the amount of hazardous waste produced ways to save money through preventing personal injury and preventing or limiting the effects of accidental pollution.
$139.94 Ex Tax: $127.22
SD-E - Structural Design for Non-Structural Engineers
This manual will help you gain the basic knowledge of structural engineering including principles of analysis of structures and their application, behavior of materials under loading, selection of construction materials and design fundamentals for RCC and steel structures.
The emphasis has been kept on the determination of the nature and amount of stress developed under loads, and the way structures offer resistance to it. Being the most widely used construction materials, RCC and steel have been covered in detail, though masonry and timber have been described briefly as well.
$139.94 Ex Tax: $127.22
TN-E - Transportation Planning and Management
This manual will help you anticipate future traffic problems of a transportation network, develop intelligent transportation systems as well as efficient parking systems, and understand the concepts of traffic calming and forecasts. You will be able to put this knowledge into practice to manage traffic in your small neighborhood/complex/construction site.

As Engineers Always Stick to Simple English
Feb 19, 2019
Dear Colleagues,Surely, the KISS principle is one of the most useful engineering tools we have in our armory (KISS means Keep it Simple Stupid, for those who have forgotten). This should be applied to our writing so that it is simple and easy to understand.But this principle is often forgotten. Perhaps, the overriding consideration we mistakenly have is to impress[…] -

Aviation engineering changing shape
Feb 14, 2019
The prototype of the world's longest aircraft is being retired, with new aircraft innovation promised to hit the market soon.The aircraft in question was the Airlander 10: a weirdly shaped plane-airship/blimp that showed what the future of air travel could look like. Needless to say, it does not look like your regular Airbus.It was the product of Hybrid Air Vehicles[…] -
The social value of civil engineering
Feb 14, 2019
India's most famous civil engineer, Sir Mokshagundam Visvesvaraya, once said: ‘Work is worship.'Gustave Eiffel, the French civil engineer responsible for the Eiffel Tower, said: “Can one think that because we are engineers, beauty does not preoccupy us or that we do not try to build beautiful, as well as solid and long lasting structures? Aren’t the genuine functions of strength[…]
