Ebenso wie die Metalle wird auch das Holz zum Theil vermoge seiner Bildsamkeit, sonst durch Zertheilen bearbeitet. Die Bildsamkeit des Holzes ist gering, so dass die auf sie sich stutzenden Bearbeitungsweisen einen kleinen Raum einnehmen. Die wenigen hierbei zur .Anwendung kommenden Maschinen (es handelt sich vorwiegend urn Biegemaschinen) sollen am Schluss dieses Bandes angefiihrt werden. Es wird fur das Zertheilen des. Holzes in einigem Umfange seine Spaltbarkeit benutzt; die hierher gehOrigen Maschinen (zum Zerlegen des Brennholzes, del' entsprechend vorbereiteten Holzscheiben in Schuhnitgel, Spalten des Rohrs und der Weidenruthen) liegen ausserhalb des Rahmens dieses Buches und werden deshalb weiter unten nur kurz behandelt . .Auch die dem Zusammenfugen der Holztheile dienenden Maschinen sind kurz erledigt, und zwar wei! sie meistens Sonderz ecken angepasst sind. Bei weitem iiberwiegend sind die spanabhebenden Maschinen. Sie nehmen demgemass die erste Stelle und den grossten Raum dieses Bandes ein. Es werden zunlichst die eigentlichen Werkzeuge, deren Wirksamkeit und Erhaltung, dann die Mittel und Verfahren fiir das Entgegenfiihren von Werkzeugen und Werkstucken erortert nnd endlich Beispiele spanab.hebender Maschinen angefiihrt. In Bd. I, S. 2 bis 7 sind fiir den Entwurf der Werkzeugmaschinen massgebende allgemeine Gesichtspunkte angefiihrt.

The scope of disasters ranges from man-made emergency to natural calamity, from a kitchen grease fire to a hurricane or volcanic eruption. It may be just one house that is destroyed, or perhaps a whole infrastructure system is threatened. While each type of event requires a very different scale and type of immediate response, the project management challenges that face restoration and reconstruction professionals after the emergency phase is complete are remarkably similar. Using insights acquired through decades of real-world experience, as well as from his academic research and teaching responsibilities, the author explains pertinent requirements and methods for the contractors and other professionals who bring order from chaos. The first section of the book surveys the managerial skills required to confront the range of disasters that might be encountered and the different project environments involved. The second section examines the details of recovery project management and administration, from materials management to health and safety. The third and final section provides an overview of restoration techniques, from restorative drying to debris management and demolition. This is the first systematic presentation of the tools and skills needed for disaster recovery project management. It is designed primarily for contractors (both large and small firms), although it will also be of value for those who might hire them, the communities they serve, and their organizational partners in the disaster recovery effort. Those who are new to disaster restoration and reconstruction will find the volume particularly useful. Focused on informing the management of projects that recover the built environment, after emergency conditions sufficiently stabilize, the volume supplements and complements books devoted to conventional construction or emergency relief management.

The monograph presents the main results of the author's sixty-year activity in science and engineering fields regarding the application of various multi-hull ships. The shown data are based mainly on the wide experimental results of the author. For fullness of description, some problems are explained in brief by the experimental results of other authors whose names are shown in the text and references. The scope of topics includes a brief history of applications, a list of types, hydrostatics and stability, towing resistance and propulsion in calm water and high seas, seaworthiness, maneuverability, external loads, structural arrangements and strength, general arrangement, and proposed concept designs. The scope of architectural types encompasses the variety of multi-hull "species" from catamarans to trimarans as well as the other triple-hull ships, and ships with a small water-plane area (SWA ships). The type and size of ship range from small fast crafts to large ferries, from passenger ships to transatlantic container-carriers, and from high-speed patrol boats to naval combat and auxiliary ships. This is a development of a kind of technical encyclopedia previously published as three books: Multi-hull Ships by V. Dubrovsky and A. Lyakhovitsky (2001), Ships with Outriggers, by V. Dubrovsky (2004), Ships with Small Water-Plane Area, by V. Dubrovsky, K. Matveev, S. Sutulo, with detailed explanations of the newest data. In this respect, the book is unique and the most universal one written in English today. A brief history of applications is given as the base for future developments. The introduction contains a list of ship types and full terminology. Chapter One describes the specificity of general arrangement. Chapter Two speaks of how stability and non-sinkability differ clearly from the same qualities of mono-hulls. Chapter Three delves into resistance in calm water (major specificity and its use, series test results of catamarans with low-lengthening hulls, and twin- and triple-hull SWA models). Chapter Four is about seakeeping and performance on high seas (specifics of motion and the universal method of comparative evaluation). Chapter Five teaches readers about controllability and maneuverability specificity. Chapter Six shows structural strength (external loads, hull girder stress analysis and design, and simplified methods). Chapter Seven deals with design (basic factors, specific design algorithms and limitations, some new concepts: super-fast wave-piercing trimaran; "semi-gliding" ships with small water-plane area, S/P SWA ships, feeder and fast container-carriers, motor yachts, carriers of helicopters and unmanned aircraft; transatlantic container-carriers, cruise ships, passenger ships for unequipped coasts, ships for seismic researching, multi-purpose pleasure and inexpensive research vessels, some small-sized vessels, and combat ships from corvettes to aircraft-carriers).

Zu Beginn einer Krankenhausplanung sollte eine sorgfaltige Analyse und Planung aller Faktoren stehen, die einen effizienten und zukunftsfahigen Krankenhausbetrieb ermoeglichen. Dem Architekten und Planer kommt hierbei eine Schlusselfunktion zu. Diese Fachbuch setzt genau dort an und zeigt Methoden und Werkzeuge auf, um im fruhesten Planungsstadium durch aktive Vernetzung aller beteiligten Disziplinen und Interessengruppen integrale Planungskonzepte zu entwickeln.

Maschinenbauliche und bautechnische Zeichnungen legen die zu erstellenden Objekte fest. Um diese Zeichnungen eindeutig zu gestalten, wurde ein umfangreiches Normenwerk etabliert, in welchem Grundnormen und Zeichnungsarten vereinbart sind. Formate, Massstabe und Ansichten werden vorgestellt, ebenso wie Linien und Darstellungen (Linienarten, Buchstaben, Ziffern und Schrift). Schraffur und Bemassung sind ebenfalls aufgefuhrt. Fur bautechnische Zeichnungen wird die Darstellung von Baumaterialien gezeigt, aber auch Bauelemente. Beim werkzeugbaulichen Zeichnen interessieren die technischen Oberflachen und Rauheitsbezeichnungen, Grenzmasse und Passungen. Auch Schweissbezeichnungen gehoeren dazu oder Muster von Bearbeitungsspuren. Fur technische Systeme werden Stucklisten behandelt. Form- und Lagetoleranzen sichern die geometrische Genauigkeit des zu fertigenden Bauteils.

Die Bauwerksanierung nimmt eine immer wichtigere Stellung in Deutschland, OEsterreich und auch in anderen Landern ein. Doch wie wird eine Sanierung richtig durchgefuhrt und was ist dabei zu beachten? Der Autor erklart in seinem Buch die exakte Planung unter Berucksichtigung einer ganzheitlichen Gebaudesanierung. Die Bestandsaufnahme und Bauwerksanalyse sind dabei zwingende Voraussetzungen fur eine funktionstuchtige Bausanierung. Dabei sind die bauphysikalischen Komponenten von ganz besonderer Bedeutung. Unterschiedliche Baumaterialien mit unterschiedlichen chemischen und physikalischen Verhaltensformen mussen kombiniert werden, um den vielfaltigen Anforderungen gerecht zu werden. Dieses Buch ist ein Muss, wenn Sanierung nicht zur Dauersanierung werden soll. Die vierte Auflage wurde vollstandig uberarbeitet und erweitert sowie in weiten Bereichen erganzt.

Successful Construction Project Management - The Practical Guide, provides useful tips to managing a construction project. It's aimed at construction professionals as well as those studying construction project management. Managing a construction project isn't an easy job and requires a large skill set. Some of these skills are learned by attending courses and colleges (which are often more theoretical than practical). However, others are only learned by experience, and often the hard way - learning from mistakes. This book bridges the gap between the theoretical and practical and includes chapters on planning the project, starting it, scheduling, running the project, completing it, people, materials, equipment, quality, safety, subcontractors, contractual and financial. These chapters are broken into multiple sections providing a step-by-step guide to successfully managing a construction project, and, including what-not-to-do to avoid costly mistakes. Key features of the book are it: is written for construction contractors by a contractor is written in an easy to read, friendly style, and avoids being too 'textbook' in nature has numerous practical examples of situations the author has seen and experienced over twenty-eight years in construction includes many topics essential to successfully managing projects which aren't included in most other project management books (such as; teamwork, delegation, communication, time management and preparing for meetings) has the information clearly set out and easily available so the book can be used as a continuing reference is not specific to a particular country or field of construction includes a large amount of valuable, useful and relevant information dealing with practical everyday issues of managing a project has a summary of the salient points at the end of each chapter Managing a construction project requires Project Managers with an understanding of construction processes, able to develop schedules, procure materials and equipment, aware of safety, environmental and labour legislation, capable of working with different people including the public, their workers, the client and designers, and able to manage subcontractors. They need to develop an appropriate construction methodology which uses the available personnel and equipment efficiently, enabling the project to be built in the shortest possible time, taking into account the client's requirements and the project's location and restraints. In addition, they must ensure the project is carried out safely and meets the required quality standards and complies with all permits, regulations and registrations. They must manage contractual issues with the client in a manner which doesn't jeopardise their company, ensuring the project is financially successful, while always maintaining good client relations. The project must be successfully completed on-time and closed-out correctly. The book discusses all of this, and more, in detail and includes many examples which provide relevance to the subject matter. By reading and using this book Project Managers will avoid some of the many problems encountered everyday on construction projects. The book should prove to be an excellent reference which can continually be referred to so that Project Managers don't forget important steps in the construction management process. The contents should be easily understood by people in the construction industry and those studying construction. A glossary of terms is included since terminologies vary between countries and even companies.

Have you recently hired a contractor to do some home improvements, but after careful inspection, you noticed the work was subpar? You are not alone. According to the National Association of Consumer Agency Administrators and the Consumer Federation of America, home improvement contracting was the top complaint category reported by state and local consumer protection agencies during the last decade.
Randal Winter has met some very distraught homeowners over the years. Some of these people have been without kitchens for over two years and some without bathrooms for up to fourteen months. Others are stuck with leaking roofs after spending tens of thousands of dollars for what they thought was going to be a new roof.

Option B is a priced contract with a bill of quantities where the risk of carrying out the work at the agreed prices being is borne by the contractor. This document contains all the core and secondary option clauses, the shorter schedule of cost components, and contract data, relevant to an option B contract. Construction Clients' Board endorsement of NEC3 The Construction Clients' Board (formerly Public Sector Clients' Forum) recommends that public sector organisations use the NEC3 contracts when procuring construction. Standardising use of this comprehensive suite of contracts should help to deliver efficiencies across the public sector and promote behaviours in line with the principles of Achieving Excellence in Construction.
