Building Information Modeling
Author: Nawari O. NawariPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1482240440
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
This book focuses on how engineers and architects can benefit from new frameworks and technologies by reviewing the building information management (BIM) concept, discussing how BIM will affect education and practice, evaluating current BIM technology, exploring critical issues for best practices in BIM environments, and reviewing fundamentals of architectural and structural analysis under the new framework. The book provides professionals and students with the necessary knowledge and tools to assist them in understanding architectural structures and utilizing BIM to offer practical design solutions.
Developments in Structural Form
Author: Rowland J. MainstonePublisher: Architectual Press
ISBN:
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
In the critically acclaimed first edition of this book, Mainstone offered a brilliant and highly original account of the structural developments that have made possible the achievements of architects and bridge builders throughout history. In this extensively revised and expanded new edition, the story is brought up to date with the incorporation of new insights and a full coverage of recent developments in both design and construction. The book identifies features that distinguish the forms built by man from those shaped by nature and discusses the physical and other constraints on the choices that can be made. It then looks in turn at all the elementary forms - arches, domes, beams, slabs and the like - which combine into the more complex forms of complete structures, and at the different classes of the complete forms themselves. The development of each form is traced chronologically, but with an emphasis less on the chronology than on the problems that designers have continually faced in trying to serve new ends with limited means or to serve old ones in new ways. The book concludes with a chapter on the processes of design, showing how the designer's freedom of choice has been widened by a growing understanding of structural behaviour. 360 photographs and drawings, mostly original and prepared by the author himself, including over 100 that are new, accompany the richly imaged text. Covers all aspects of structure providing the reader with a comprehensive text on the subject Learn from the vast knowledge of this experienced author Over 300 photographs and drawings make the book easy to comprehend

Proceedings of SECON’21
Author: Giuseppe Carlo MaranoPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030803120
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1127
Book Description
This book gathers peer-reviewed contributions presented at the International Conference on Structural Engineering and Construction Management (SECON’21), held on 12-15 May 2021. The meeting served as a fertile platform for discussion, sharing sound knowledge and introducing novel ideas on issues related to sustainable construction and design for the future. The respective contributions address various aspects of numerical modeling and simulation in structural engineering, structural dynamics and earthquake engineering, advanced analysis and design of foundations, BIM, building energy management, and technical project management. Accordingly, the book offers a valuable, up-to-date tool and essential overview of the subject for scientists and practitioners alike, and will inspire further investigations and research.
