EXPANSIVE SOILS- THE HIDDEN DISASTER

D. Earl Jones, W. G. Holtz · 1 Aug 1973

Each year, shrinking or swelling soils inflict at least $2.3 billion in damages to houses, buildings, roads, and pipelines-- more than twice the damage from floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, and earthquakes. Yet Washington continues to spend billions of dollars for flood control, but almost nothing to lessen damages from swelling soils. When they are dry, expansive…

Tomorrow's Schools

Socrates Ioannides, Robert P. Beall · 1 Jan 1992

While “what’s wrong with education” looms as a national concern, many communities are doing something positive about it. They’re constructing new schools designed to take youngsters into the next century. In Louisville, Ky., the Jefferson County Public School Board has embarked on an ambitious building program to upgrade and build new facilities for its educational…

BREAKING DOWN THE BARRIERS

Ashraf Habibullah · 1 Jun 1991

This work analyzes on nanoscale spatial domains the mechanical features of electrospun membranes of Polycaprolactone (PCL) loaded with Functionalized Magnetite Nanoparticles (FMNs) produced via an electrospinning process. Thermal and structural analyses demonstrate that FMNs affect the PCL crystallinity and its melting temperature. HarmoniX-Atomic Force Microscopy (H-AFM), a modality suitable to map the elastic modulus on…

Civil engineering template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Civil engineering format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Civil engineering template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official ASCE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Civil engineering use?
Civil engineering uses Author–year (ASCE) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., B. Jones, and C. Lee. (2023). "A representative article title." Civil engineering, 12(3), 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Civil engineering?
No. DocuGuru generates the ascelike-new LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a ASCE-ready Civil engineering document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Civil engineering template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Civil engineering format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Civil engineering?
Civil engineering is a engineering and computer science journal published by ASCE. DocuGuru's Civil engineering template matches ASCE's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Civil engineering PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Civil engineering template (the ascelike-new class) that is ready to submit to ASCE, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Civil engineering template cost?
You can start writing in the Civil engineering template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Civil engineering PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
