The \texttt{ascelike.cls} document class, the bibliographic style \texttt{ascelike.bst}, and example files are available on the \texttt{ctan} web-site \cite{Kuhn:2011a}. Although it is \emph{not} produced by ASCE, its agents, or employees, \texttt{ascelike.cls} is now referenced on the ASCE web-site. \par The program \texttt{ascelike.cls} is distributed under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License Distributed, available from the CTAN archives; either version 1.1 of the License, or any later version. If you modify \texttt{ascelike.cls}, you should rename it so that ``altered'' copies are not later proliferated. \par The document class ``\texttt{ascelike.cls}'' requires the following supplementary files: \begin{itemize} \item \texttt{ifthen.sty}, \item \texttt{setspace.sty}, \item \texttt{endfloat.sty}, and \item \texttt{lineno.sty}. \end{itemize} \emph{Without these files,} \texttt{ascelike.cls} \emph{won't work}. These files are typically included in \LaTeX\ distributions, such as the \textsf{TexLive} and \textsf{MikTex} distributions. All of these files are also freely available from the Comprehensive \TeX\ Archive Network (CTAN) archive, through \verb+http://www.ctan.org+ or \verb+http://www.tug.org+, although they may need to be unbundled from a \verb+*.dtx+ form. If one of these files is not installed as part of your \TeX\ system, then download the file from the CTAN archive and place it in the same folder as your manuscript files. On Debian GNU/Linux systems, the \texttt{setspace.sty} file is part of the \texttt{texlive-latex-recommended} package; the \texttt{endfloat.sty} file is part of the \texttt{texlive-latex-extra} package; and the \texttt{lineno.sty} file is part of the \texttt{texlive-humanities} package. \par In addition to \texttt{ascelike.cls}, the file \texttt{ascelike.bst} can be used with the bibliographic tool \textsc{Bib}\TeX\ to produce ASCE-like reference citations and entries (with the weird use of quotation marks around titles, etc.) \cite{Kuhn:2011a}. An example bibliographic data base is given in \texttt{ascexmpl.bib}. \par In addition to these essential files, we have found the following packages very useful: % \begin{itemize} \item \texttt{graphicx.sty} and its companion files for incorporating encapsulated post\-script (figure) files into the document \item \texttt{times.sty} for typesetting with Times fonts. \item \texttt{subfigure.sty} for arranging and numbering sub-figures \item \texttt{amsmath.sty} and its companion files for the AMS extensions to mathematical formatting (\texttt{amsfonts.sty}, \texttt{amssymb.sty}, and \texttt{amsbsy.sty}). \item \texttt{url.sty} can be used to embed the underscore ``\_'' and ampersand ``\&'' symbols with web addresses. \end{itemize} % All of these packages are freely available from the CTAN archive, but they are also included in most \LaTeX\ distributions. % \section{Input and Options} You should prepare your \verb+*.tex+ input file as a regular \LaTeX\ file using the standard \texttt{article.cls} constructs, but, of course, substitute \texttt{ascelike} for \texttt{article} in the opening \verb+\documentclass+ command. You will likely need to specify a number of options as described below. In addition, \texttt{ascelike} provides two new commands: \verb+KeyWords+ and \verb+NameTag+, both of which are described further below. \par Document class \texttt{ascelike.cls} provides the options given below. The \verb+Proceedings|+\-\verb+Journal+ options are the most important; the other options are largely incidental. % \begin{enumerate} \item Options \verb+Journal|+\verb+Proceedings+ specify the overall format of the output man\-u\-script. \par \texttt{Journal} produces double-spaced manuscripts for ASCE journals. As default settings, it places tables and figures at the end of the manuscript and produces lists of tables and figures. It places line numbers within the left margin. All of these default settings can altered with the options that are described below. It also numbers the appendices with Roman numerals and produces proper headings for sections, subsections, subsubsections, appendices, and abstract. It produces the proper page margins and numbers the pages. \par \texttt{Proceedings} produces camera-ready single-spaced manuscripts for most ASCE conference proceedings. As default settings, it places figures and tables within the text. It does not place line numbers within the left margin. Pages are numbered, and the bottom left corner can be ``tagged'' with the author's name (this can be done by inserting the command \verb+\NameTag{<+\emph{your name}\verb+>}+ within the preamble of your document). All of these default settings can be altered with the options that are described below. It also produces the proper page margins as given on the old shiny, camera-ready paper (with the light blue lines) supplied by ASCE. It produces proper headings for sections, subsections, subsubsections, appendices, and the abstract. \item Options \verb+BackFigs|InsideFigs+ can be used to override the default placement of tables and figures in the \texttt{Journal} and \texttt{Proceedings} formats. \item Options \verb+SingleSpace|DoubleSpace+ can be used to override the default text spacing in the \texttt{Journal} and \texttt{Proceedings} formats. \item Options \verb+10pt|11pt|12pt+ can be used to override the default text size (12pt). \item The option \texttt{NoLists} suppresses inclusion of lists of tables and figures that would normally be included in the \texttt{Journal} format. \item The option \texttt{NoPageNumbers} suppresses the printing of page numbers. \item The option \texttt{SectionNumbers} produces an automatic numbering of sections. Without the \texttt{SectionNumbers} option, sections will \emph{not} be numbered, as this seems to be the usual formatting in ASCE journals (note that the appendices will, however, be automatically ``numbered'' with Roman numerals). With the \texttt{SectionNumbers} option, sections and subsections are numbered with Arabic numerals (e.g. 2, 2.1, etc.), but subsubsection headings will not be numbered. To change this default depth of numbering when the option \texttt{SectionNumbers} is invoked, insert the following commands in the preamble of your document:\\[2mm] \begin{tabular}{ll} \verb! \setcounter{secnumdepth}{1}! & Number sections only\\ \verb! \setcounter{secnumdepth}{3}! & Number sections, subsections, \\ & and subsubsections \end{tabular}\\[2mm] Even with the \texttt{SectionNumbers} option, you can use the ``starred'' form, \verb!\section*{ }!, to create a section heading without numbers. This might be desirable for an Acknowledgements section at the end of a paper. Note, however, that the starred form will not suppress the numbering of subsections or subsubsections. \item The options \verb+NoLineNumbers|LineNumbers+ can be used to override the default use (or absence) of line numbers in the \texttt{Journal} and \texttt{Proceedings}. \end{enumerate} % \section{Sections, subsections, equations, etc.} This section is included to explain and to test the formating of sections, subsections, subsubsections, equations, tables, and figures. Section heads are automatically made uppercase, which is great unless your section heading contains mathematics, \verb+$$+. If a heading does contain mathematics, you will need to modify \texttt{ascelike.cls}, in particular the line containing the \verb+\uppercase+ command. To force mathematics symbols to become bold within a section heading, try using the \verb!\boldmath! command before the in-line math: for example, \verb!\boldmath$a_{i}=\sqrt{\beta}$!. % \subsection{An Example Subsection with math, \boldmath$a_{i}=\sqrt{\beta}$} No automatic capitalization occurs with subsection headings; you will need to capitalize the first letter of each word, as in ``An Example Subsection.'' % \subsubsection{An example subsubsection} No automatic capitalization occurs with subsubsections; you will need to capitalize only the first letter of subsubsection headings. \par And now we include an example of a displayed equation (Eq.~\ref{eq:Einstein}) % \begin{equation} \label{eq:Einstein} E = m c^{2} \;, \end{equation} % a figure (Fig.~\ref{fig:box_fig}),% % \begin{figure} \centering \framebox[3.00in]{\rule[0in]{0in}{1.00in}} \caption{An example figure (just a box). This particular figure has a caption with more information than the figure itself, a very poor practice indeed. A reference here \protect\cite{Stahl:2004a}.} \label{fig:box_fig} \end{figure} % and a table (Table~\ref{table:assembly}).% % \begin{table} \caption{An example table} \label{table:assembly} \centering \small \renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.25} \begin{tabular}{l l} \hline\hline \multicolumn{1}{c}{Assembly Attribute} & \multicolumn{1}{c}{Values} \\ \multicolumn{1}{c}{(1)} & \multicolumn{1}{c}{(2)} \\ \hline Number of particles & 4008 \\ Particle sizes & Multiple \\ Particle size range & $0.45D_{50}^{\:\ast}$ to $1.40D_{50}$ \\ Initial void ratio, $e_{\mathrm{init}}$ & $0.179$ \\ Assembly size & $54D_{50} \times 54D_{50} \times 54D_{50}$ \\ \hline \multicolumn{2}{l}{$\ast$ $D_{50}$ represents the median particle diameter} \\ \hline\hline \end{tabular} \normalsize \end{table} % Notice that the caption of Fig.~\ref{fig:box_fig} contains a citation of a bibliographic item \cite{Stahl:2004a}. This can lead to the following errors: \begin{verbatim} ! Illegal parameter number in definition of \reserved@a. ! Missing control sequence inserted \end{verbatim} These errors are avoided by protecting citations within captions, as \verb|\protect\cite{...}|. % \par A new command \verb+\KeyWords{}+ can be used to produce a labeled list of key words. It can be placed anywhere in the document and produces an unindented paragraph of keywords at that location. % \section{Citations and bibliographic entries} When used together, \texttt{ascelike.cls} and \texttt{ascelike.bst} produce APA~/ \emph{Chica\-go Manual of Style} citations in name-date format. The code in \texttt{ascelike.bst} is a modification of the \texttt{chicago.sty} and \texttt{chicago.bst} packages. The following citation options are available: \begin{itemize} \item \verb+\cite{key}+ produces citations with full author list and year \cite{Ireland:1954a}. \item \verb+\citeNP{key}+ produces citations with full author list and year, but without enclosing parentheses: e.g. \citeNP{Ireland:1954a}. \item \verb+\citeA{key}+ produces citations with only the full author list: e.g. \citeA{Ireland:1954a} \item \verb+\citeN{key}+ produces citations with the full author list and year, but which can be used as nouns in a sentence; no parentheses appear around the author names, but only around the year: e.g. \citeN{Ireland:1954a} states that \ldots \item \verb+\citeyear{key}+ produces the year information only, within parentheses, as in \citeyear{Ireland:1954a}. \item \verb+\citeyearNP{key}+ produces the year information only, as in \citeyearNP{Ireland:1954a}. \end{itemize} % \par The bibliographic data base \texttt{ascexmpl.bib} gives examples of bibliographic entries for different document types. These entries are from the canonical set in the ASCE web document ``Instructions For Preparation Of Electronic Manuscripts'' and from the ASCE web-site. The References section of this document has been automatically created with the \texttt{ascelike.bst} style for the following entries: \begin{itemize} \item a book \cite{Goossens:1994a}, \item an anonymous book \cite{Moody:1988a}, \item an anonymous report using \texttt{@MANUAL} \cite{FHWA:1991a}, %\item an anonymous newspaper story ("Educators" 1993), \item a journal article \cite{Stahl:2004a,Pennoni:1992a}, \item a journal article in press \cite{Dasgupta:2008a}, \item an article in an edited book using \texttt{@INCOLLECTION} \cite{Zadeh:1981a}, \item a building code using \texttt{@MANUAL} \cite{ICBO:1988a}, \item a discussion of an \texttt{@ARTICLE} \cite{Vesilind:1992a}, \item a masters thesis using \texttt{@MASTERSTHESIS} \cite{Sotiropulos:1991a}, \item a doctoral thesis using \texttt{@PHDTHESIS} \cite{Chang:1987a}, \item a paper in a foreign journal \cite{Ireland:1954a}, \item a paper in a proceedings using \texttt{@INPROCEEDINGS} \cite{Eshenaur:1991a,Garrett:2003a}, \item a standard using \texttt{@INCOLLECTION} \cite{ASTM:1991a}, \item a translated book \cite{Melan:1913a}, \item a two-part paper \cite{Frater:1992a,Frater:1992b}, \item a university report using \texttt{@TECHREPORT} \cite{Duan:1990a}, \item an untitled item in the Federal Register using \texttt{@MANUAL} \cite{FR:1968a}, \item works in a foreign language \cite{Duvant:1972a,Reiffenstuhl:1982a}, \item software using \texttt{@MANUAL} \cite{Lotus:1985a}, \item two works by the same author in the same year \cite{Gaspar:2001b,Gaspar:2001a}, and \item two works by three authors in the same year that only share the first two authors \cite{Huang2009a,Huang2009b}. \end{itemize} % \par ASCE has added two types of bibliographic entries: web-pages and CD-ROMs. A web-page can be formated using the \texttt{@MISC} entry category, as with the item \cite{Burka:1993a} produced with the following \texttt{*.bib} entry: \begin{verbatim} @MISC{Burka:1993a, author = {Burka, L. P.}, title = {A hypertext history of multi-user dimensions}, journal = {MUD history}, year = {1993}, month = {Dec. 5, 1994}, url = {http://www.ccs.neu.edu} } \end{verbatim} Notice the use of the ``\texttt{month}'' field to give the date that material was downloaded and the use of a new ``\texttt{url}'' field. The ``\texttt{url}'' and \texttt{month}'' fields can also be used with other entry types (i.e., \texttt{@BOOK}, \texttt{@INPROCEEDINGS}, \texttt{@MANUAL}, \texttt{@MASTERSTHESIS}, \texttt{@PHDTHESIS}, and \texttt{@TECHREPORT}): for example, in the entry type \texttt{@PHDTHESIS} for \cite{Wichtmann:2005a}. % \par A CD-ROM can be referenced when using the \texttt{@BOOK}, \texttt{@INBOOK}, \texttt{@INCOLLECTION}, or \texttt{@INPROCEEDINGS} categories, as in the entry \cite{Liggett:1998a}. The field ``\texttt{howpublished}'' is used to designate the medium in the \texttt{.bib} file: \begin{verbatim} howpublished = {CD-ROM}, \end{verbatim} % \section{Miscellany} Many ASCE conference proceedings are now published on CD ROM media. I have noticed that instructions on paper formats issued by conference organizers often differ from the standard ASCE instructions. Fortunately most of the differences can be easily accommodated, such as changes in the margins and placement of the authors' addresses. As for margins, these can, of course, be altered by using \verb+\setlength{}+ commands within the preamble to a document without making any changes to \texttt{ascelike.cls}. (See the \LaTeX\ book \cite{Lamport:1994a}, its companion \cite{Goossens:1994a}, or online web documentation.) \par Authors' addresses can be placed below the title (instead of in a footnote) by \emph{not} using the \verb+\thanks+ command. Multiple authors from the same institution can be handled within the \verb|\author{...}| command by using the \verb|\footnotemark| command: \begin{verbatim} \\ Ima Colleague,\footnotemark[1] Member, ASCE% \end{verbatim} \pagebreak % % % Now we start the appendices, with the new section name, "Appendix", and a % new counter, "I", "II", etc. % \appendix\label{section:references} % % Here's the first appendix, the list of references: % \bibliography{ascexmpl} % % And now for some pretty impressive notation. In this example, I have used % the tabular environment to line up the columns in ASCE style. % Note that this and all appendices (except the references) start with % the \section command % \section{Notation} \emph{The following symbols are used in this paper:}%\par\vspace{0.10in} \nopagebreak \par \begin{tabular}{r @{\hspace{1em}=\hspace{1em}} l} $D$ & pile diameter (m); \\ $R$ & distance (m); and\\ $C_{\mathrm{Oh\;no!}}$ & fudge factor. \end{tabular} % \end{document}
