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.

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.
