VDOT's subscription to the ASCE Library database means a constant influx of new articles, E-Books and standards.  These E-books are brand new for 2019 and may be of interest to VDOT engineers:

 

 

Climate-Resilient Infrastructure: Adaptive Design and Risk Management

 

New!
Climate-Resilient Infrastructure

Adaptive Design and Risk Management
Committee on Adaptation to a Changing Climate                                                                 
Edited by Bilal M. Ayyub, Ph.D., P.E

MOP 140 provides guidance for and contributes to the developing or enhancing of methods for infrastructure analysis and design in a world in which risk profiles are changing and can be projected with varying degrees of uncertainty requiring a new design philosophy to meet this challenge.
