Degradation phenomena can affect civil structures over their lifespan.
The analysis of experimental results and theoretical developments provides useful design criteria for the fabrication of CNT/cement composites optimized for SHM applications in civil engineering.
Taking into account that CNT/cement composites are developed for real applications in civil engineering, the effect of water content on the piezoresistive response is of interest.

In this case, some of the civil construction experts could not acclimatize themselves to the application of value engineering when they are in charge of international project management.
Value engineering is the first lecture for civil building contractor to adapt and learn before going global.
Concept of Value Engineering From the origin of word “Value Engineering”, the original meaning of value engineering is that in the Engineering construction field, through elemental evaluation and redesign of the project, to make the construction cost reduce to minimum.
Due to the translation problem, the contractor’s domestic engineering have a certain difference on the understanding of value engineering.
These are the benefits of value engineering. 6.

Nevertheless, its application in civil engineering area is not easy because many building structures are inhomogeneous.
Introduction Concrete is a construction material frequently used in civil engineering.
As a non-traditional, non-destructive analysis method, the Acoustic Emission Method was used for civil engineering experiment.
The typically case in civil engineering is the location of a waveguide into the prepared hole in wood or concrete [9].

Analysis on Whole Life Cycle Cost Management of Highway Engineering Huihong Fenga, Xiaoping Dingb, Jingsi Chenc and Yu Chend School of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Southwest Petroleum University, Chengdu, Sichuan, 610500, China afenghh163@163.com, bdingxiaopingshu@163.com, csummer68123@126.com d694595905@qq.com Keywords: Highway Engineering, the Whole Life Cycle, Engineering Cost Management.
According to the analysis of the current problems in highway engineering cost management, this paper puts forward the idea of the whole life cycle cost management in highway engineering, and elaborates the specific contents and the control methods of engineering cost management for all stages in the construction process.
Therefore, it must run through the project life cycle that the highway engineering cost management to effectively control the engineering cost, and to achieve good investment returns.
Thus the engineering cost will lose control finally.
Secondly, it should to use value engineering to optimize the design scheme.

Meanwhile, one military helicopter crashed due to strong fog and airflow, while the 33 civil helicopters carried out the rescue permissions only twice per flight per day.
Therefore, we should establish three layers of aviation emergence rescue architecture which includes the leadership of the state council aviation emergency rescue office, area relief forces from the seven civil air traffic control bureau, and the province rescue center in the seven areas with the civil rescue forces primarily and the military rescue forces complementary.
