Glazed Panel Construction with Human-Robot Cooperation
ISBN: 9781461414179 / Angielski / Miękka / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. These days, construction companies are beginning to be concerned about a potential labor shortage by demographic changes and an aging construction work force. Also, an improvement in construction safety could not only reduce accidents but also decrease the cost of the construction, and is therefore one of the imperative goals of the construction industry. These challenges correspond to the potential for Automation and Robotics in Construction as one of solutions. Almost half of construction work is said to be material handling and materials used for construction are heavy and bulky for...

Field Guide for Construction Management: Management by Walking Around
ISBN: 9781462067121 / Angielski / Miękka / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From any perspective, the ideal construction project is one in which the contractor shows up on your doorstep with the right price and all of his tools, people, and equipment ready to start, and builds exactly what you want for the price you want and finish on schedule. Everyone then goes away, happy as clams. This is the ideal, but it never occurs. The world is a competitive place; to survive, contractors must think competitively in order to win work. They must find a way to complete a quality project for the lowest price. Circumstances can easily derail even the best plans and...

Concrete Durability: Achievement and Enhancement: Proceedings of the International Conference, Dundee, July 2008 (EP 88)
ISBN: 9781848060395 / Angielski / Twarda / 1000 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In recent decades, great progress has been made in developing specifications and application technologies for durable and sustainable concrete. Performance-based specifications and durability models have been developed, and concrete has diversified into a group of innovative products, with high strength, low permeability, self compacting, with polymer and carbon fibre reinforcement, and its applications extended to extreme conditions (tropical, marine, seismic etc). For long-lasting concrete structures it is important to use a multi-step approach, so ""replace, repair and retain"" becomes...

Designing Concrete for the Visual Environment: Proceedings of the International Conference held at the University of Dundee, Scotland, UK, on 10 July 2008 (EP 89)
ISBN: 9781848060401 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Concrete is a material that gives architects and engineers great control over its form and appearance, especially where its visual qualities have been fully considered at the design stage. The appearance of concrete can be radically altered simply by intelligent selection of materials, but pigments and surface treatments extend the palette further, and understanding of the interactions between concrete surfaces and the environment can minimise surface deterioration. Concrete can be delivered to its point of use in a fluid state so there are few limitations on the forms which can be created,...

Concrete for Fire Engineering: Proceedings of the International Conference, Dundee, July 2008 (EP 90)
ISBN: 9781848060418 / Angielski / Twarda / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Concrete construction provides inherent fire resistance to structures, and properly designed and detailed concrete construction responds effectively to the requirements of fire safety. Advances in concrete technology enable structures not only to withstand adverse temperature differentials, but also to withstand structural collapse in major fires. Current practice is embracing these developing technologies, based on the uptake of new ideas, and as evidenced by the contributions in this volume. The book includes technical developments in materials and design, and case studies on the...

Sustainable Retrofitting of Commercial Buildings: Warm Climates
ISBN: 9781849712910 / Angielski / Twarda / 482 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite recent improvements in energy efficiency being made in new build, it is important that the existing commercial building sector also take action to meet emission reduction targets. The objectives and challenges of such action will reduce the risk of the sector becoming obsolete due to high energy use and poor environmental performance. This book presents a theory-based, practice-support methodology to deal with sustainable retrofitting opportunities for existing commercial buildings in warm climates using bioclimatic design as the basis. The book has four main parts, focusing on...

Cover Systems for Land Regeneration: Thickness of Cover Systems for Contaminated Land (BR 465)
ISBN: 9781860816840 / Angielski / Miękka / 12 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Cover systems reduce the hazard to human health from contaminated land and provide a medium for plant growth but their design has sometimes been ad hoc, resulting in designs that may be unnecessarily thick, or inadequate. This publication and the accompanying CD ROM help you assess the need for cover systems to reduce exposure to contamination, and to design the thickness of such systems. The design method is intended for simple cover systems on brownfield sites where exposure to contamination must be reduced. The guidance is not appropriate for sites where contamination is so significant...
