Ich bin Schweisser ich war jung und brauchte das Geld Notizbuch
by Schweier-In Press
This volume describes a DETR and industry-funded research project carried out at BSRIA to investigate alternative control strategies for existing air cooled chillers which incorporate thermostatic expansion valves and to consider ways of improving the chiller energy efficiency. It describes a test facility constructed to house a standard air-cooled chiller of 35 kW cooling capacity, which allowed the chiller load and ambient temperature to be controlled across a wide range of conditions; present...
Much has been written about Building Information Modelling (BIM) driving collaboration and innovation, but how will future quality managers and engineers develop digital capabilities in augmented and video realities, with business intelligence platforms, robots, new materials, artificial intelligence, blockchains, drones, laser scanning, data trusts, 3D printing and many other types of technological advances in construction? These emerging technologies are potential game changers that require ne...

Schedule Delay Analysis (Standards)
Prepared by the Schedule Delay Analysis Standard Committee of the Construction Institute of ASCE. Schedule Delay Analysis, Standard ANSI/ASCE/CI 67-17, presents guiding principles that can be used on construction projects to determine the impact of delays. Critical path method (CPM) schedules can be of evidential value to demonstrate causation and liability and to apportion delays when they occur on a project. CPM schedules will influence the quantification of delay and, ultimately, whether a p...
Избранные геодезические сочинения
by К.Ф. Гаусс, С.Г. Судаков, and Н.Ф. Булаевский
Addressing the interactions between the different design and construction variables and techniques this book illustrates best practices for constructing economical, long life concrete pavements. The book proceeds in much the same way as a pavement construction project. First, different alternatives for concrete pavement solutions are outlined. The desired performance and behaviour parameters are identified. Next, appropriate materials are outlined and the most suitable concrete proportions deter...
