Aussschreibungs- und Vergabeverfahren von Bauleistungen bergen auch fur den Auftragnehmer in der Angebotsphase Tucken und Fallstricke. Die komplexe Thematik kommt in der Ausbildung an Hochschulen und Universtitaten oft viel zu kurz. Dieses praxisnahe Fachbuch erklart die Verfahren und die Vorgehensweisen Schritt fur Schritt. Bezuge zu den relevanten Gesetzen und Verordnungen (VOB/A und HOAI) ermoglichen dem Auftragnehmer ein strukturiertes Herangehen und eine fehlerfreie und regelkonformeTeilnahme und Angebotsabgabe.

Die Kalkulationsmethode nach Opitz, die seit den 1940er Jahren nahezu unverandert zur Kostenermittlung von Bauleistungen herangezogen wird, bedarf einer dringenden Erganzung. Wahrend die Produktionskosten mit dieser Methode durchaus exakt ermittelt werden, bleiben die aus den Projektrisiken resultierenden Kosten unberucksichtigt. Diese werden bisher uber einen pauschalen Wagnis- und Gewinnzuschlag nur scheinbar abgedeckt. Die nicht kalkulierten Risikokosten sind aber oft die Ursache fur verlustreiche Projekte. Es ist deshalb dringend erforderlich, die Risikokosten im Rahmen einer Risikoorientierten Kalkulation zu bewerten, um sie dann gemass der unternehmensindividuellen Risikostrategie zu behandeln und in der Preisfindung zu berucksichtigen. Bauunternehmen, die einen nachhaltigen Unternehmenserfolg sicherstellen wollen, setzen nicht mehr nur auf Opitz, sondern auch auf die Risikoorientierte Kalkulation.
Das Fachbuch beschreibt das Vorgehensmodell, welches die bisherige Methode der Kalkulation revolutioniert. Mit praktischen Hinweisen zu einem aktiven Risikomanagement auf Bauprojektebene, wird die Risikoorientierte Bauprojekt-Kalkulation detailliert und anhand eines durchgangigen Praxisbeispiels anschaulich erklart."

The third edition of this classic text, first published in 1949, contains additional colour plates and text describing popular decorative paint finishes such as lapis lazuli, tortoiseshell, malachite, patinated gold and fossilstone marble. A chapter on broken colour effects----including ragging, dragging, stippling, sponging and shading----is also provided. The extensive text on graining has been enhanced by replacing the descriptive--only ground colours with two full--colour plates of suggested colours (aligned with the British Standard), thereby enabling access to paints from local suppliers or helping the decorative painter make and mix his/her own colours.

In this unique and comprehensive textbook, the authors examine the challenges faced all around the world with regard to major infrastructure project management, and they champion a fresh approach that takes into account the interdependencies between economic, social, political, technological and legislative environments. Managing, developing and investing in crucial infrastructure is essential to keep up with the challenges of a fast-paced and globalised world, but affecting and overseeing change requires a deep understanding of complex interlocking systems. To this end the book is neatly divided into three key parts: project appraisal, maximising integrated supply chains, and implementing value-enhancing practices. This is the ideal companion for courses on any aspect of civil engineering and construction project management including modules in infrastructure planning, infrastructure management, construction management and business management. The book will also appeal to practitioners involved in the management of capital and infrastructure projects.

Retrofitting the Built Environment - An Economic and Environmental Analysis of Energy Systems (Hardcover, Unabridged edition):... Retrofitting the Built Environment - An Economic and Environmental Analysis of Energy Systems (Hardcover, Unabridged edition)
Taofeeq Ibn-Mohammed
R2,593 Discovery Miles 25 930 Out of stock

The building sector exerts huge pressure on the built and natural environment and despite significant efforts to minimise the consequences, the International Energy Agency submitted that, by 2050, emissions related to buildings could double. However, in the building sector, significant improvement in energy use and reduction in greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved, given the potential to do this at no cost, using new technology. Since most buildings that exist now will still exist in 2050, the greatest energy savings can be made through refurbishment. In the future, legislation on carbon usage, as well as innovative technologies and knowledge, will trigger aggressive emission reductions in buildings, and this will compel installers of retrofit options to consider embodied emissions in order to achieve the best-value retrofit plan.This book, in response to the growing environmental importance of retrofit options, describes the development of a powerful decision support system, detailing both theoretical and practical insights, for the evaluation of environmentally and economically optimal retrofit options for non-domestic buildings. The chapters within it discuss engineering, energy, environment and economics in the context of climate change and sustainability, while a methodological framework of a decision support system is used to analyse a range of building energy retrofit options. The theoretical developments provided in this book can be transferred to other industries beyond the built environment and will be useful to researchers, energy systems engineers, architects, building energy managers, supply chain and procurement managers, sustainability managers and policy makers.
