| Kurzbeschreibung
Encyclopedic in scope, this volume is a multidisciplinary reference of engineering measurement tools, techniques, and applications. Whether engineers are attempting to state requirements quantitatively and demonstrate compliance, to track progress and predict results, or to analyze costs and benefits, they must use the right tools and techniques to produce meaningful, useful data. This volume covers civil and environmental engineering, mechanical and biomedical engineering, and industrial engineering and is the most comprehensive, up-to-date reference set on engineering measurements--beyond anything on the market today.
