Circular Curves (Surveying Mathematics Made Simple, #4)
by Jim Crume
Providing an overview of specifying, from selecting materials and products to writing the specification documents, Specifying Buildings is a new guide to this important part of the construction process. Where it differs from most books is in covering the management of the specification process, making sure that the design intent is transferred to the building assembly as specified.Covering a wide range of practices, Stephen Emmitt and David Yeomans have ensured the book has global relevance with...
Wake Up Survey Be Awesome Gift Notebook for a Surveyor
by Useful Occupations Books
Based on the proceedings of a symposium, this volume aims to provide a state-of-the-art discussion on the use of the Global Positioning System (GPS), in combination with Inertial Navigation Systems (INS), for the detailed sensing of the Earth's surface. Divided into two parts, the book first discusses GPS/INS with respect to theory and modelling, equipment trends, estimation methods and quality control, algorithms and software trends. It then describes the applications of these kinematic systems...
