If you are so steeped in structural parameters that you chortle over inappropriate variables ... If you watched The Sopranos just for the bridges pictured in the opening montage ... you are a candidate for Brian Brenner's latest collection of humorous essays that celebrate life as a practicing civil engineer. In this book you'll learn valuable skills, like egosurfing and how to use tribbles in a meeting to tell the engineers from the contractors. You'll ponder what bridges would be like if they could sing, and you'll discover friendships you never knew bridges could have through social media. Brenner also invites you to consider serious subjects, like the transition from student to professional engineer and the growth in girth of engineering standards. He speculates on what will happen when, one day, some researcher determines that the current amount of information is good enough. Until then, Too Much Information: Living the Civil Engineering Life will entertain you even while is shows just how well civil engineering can explain life"--Back cover. 000757448 506__ $$aAccess limited to authorized users. 000757448 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000757448 60010 $$aBrenner, Brian R. 000757448 650_0 $$aCivil engineers$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000757448 650_0 $$aCivil engineering$$vAnecdotes. 000757448 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xSocial life and customs$$vAnecdotes. 000757448 7001_ $$aMarshall, R.$$q(Ryan),$$eillustrator. 000757448 7001_ $$aRessler, Stephen J.,$$ewriter of foreword. 000757448 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBrenner, Brian R.$$tToo much information.$$dReston, Virginia : American Society of Civil Engineers, c2015$$z9780784413944$$w(DLC) 2015011096$$w(OCoLC)907621757 000757448 852__ $$bacq 000757448 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000757448 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4534216$$zOnline Access 000757448 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:757448$$pGLOBAL_SET 000757448 980__ $$aEBOOK 000757448 980__ $$aBIB 000757448 982__ $$aEbook 000757448 983__ $$aOnline
