Nature-Based Solutions and Circularity Perspectives in the Built Environment: Multidisciplinary Appr

No customer reviews yet ISBN 9781032834337

The main purpose of this book is to examine the applications of nature-based solutions (NBS) and circularity in the built environment from a multidisciplinary perspective, but with a focus on energy, civil, and environmental engineering. The book is therefore divided into three sections, energy management, hydrology and water management, and applications of sustainable natural resources in soil improvement in the built environment.

Section 1 introduces the concepts of circularity and NBS in the built environment with a focus on energy management in buildings and infrastructure through case studies of auditing, assessment, and best practice in design.

Section 2 examines NBS in the form of water management. Chapters cover urban and rural resilience in water management, the circular design of waste management and NBS in coastal contexts.

In Section 3, chapters and case studies present solutions that can be applied to improve the physical and mechanical properties of the soil. It presents viable options for sustainable reuse of construction materials from civil infrastructure projects, and industrial wastes in soil improvement.

This book is important reading for researchers and professionals in civil engineering, water engineering, coastal engineering, sustainable infrastructure design and urban planning.

2013 Hydrographic Survey Maps-Mississippi River Black Hawk, Louisiana to Gulf of Mexico Mile 324 Ahp
<b>NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT--OVERSTOCK SALE -- Significantly reduced list price</b><br /><br /> This volume is packaged as a binder that consists of 74 loose leaf map sheets. These 74 map sheets are mapped to 1:20,000 publication scale and this volume also contains 12 map sheets mapped to 1:10,000 scale. This resource maps the Mississippi River from river Mile 324 AHP at Black Hawk, Louisiana (LA) to the Mile 23 BHP at Gulf of Mexico. These detailed maps are part of a comprehenisve mapping project produced by the United States (U.S..US) Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) that is developed to provide updated Flood Control and Navigation maps as well as Hydrographic Survey maps for the Mississippi River. The Mississippi River, at over 2,300 miles long is the longest river in the United States (when combined with its tributary Missouri River). It drains most of the area between the Rocky Mountains and the Appalachian Mountains.<br /><br /> American citizens, city and regional planners along the Missisippi River, along with emergency management personnel, flood control engineers, surveyors, and construction specialists may be interested in these maps, especially in flooding and flood prevention/control situations.<br /><br /> Related products: <b>Homeowner's Guide to Retrofitting: Six Ways to Protect Your Home From Flooding</b> is available here: https: //bookstore.gpo.gov/products/sku/064-000-00070-5?ctid=528<br /><br /><b>Divine Providence: The 2011 Flood in the Mississippi River and Tributaries Project in paperback format</b> is available here: https: //bookstore.gpo.gov/products/sku/008-022-00364-9<br /><br /><b>Floods: The Awesome Power </b>can be found here: https: //bookstore.gpo.gov/products/sku/003-000-00692-1<br /><br /><br /><br />
