Book Synopsis BOCA, National Building Code Compliance Manual by : Scott Parish
Download or read book BOCA, National Building Code Compliance Manual written by Scott Parish and published by McGraw-Hill Companies. This book was released on 1999 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architects, builders, and related design professionals are required to design any structure to the minimum requirements set by applicable codes. Failure to design to code can mean expensive change orders during construction, delays, loss of client trust and respect, claims, and even litigation. This book reformats the BOCA National Building Code requirements into four distinct job stages--design, architectural documentation, structural documentation, and specifications--all of which are addressed in checklists to be used on-site for quality control. This will be a valuable aid in "decoding" the unwieldy provisions of the NBC as it relates to individual projects at different stages.

Book Synopsis Cracking the Codes by : Barry D. Yatt
Download or read book Cracking the Codes written by Barry D. Yatt and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1998-07-27 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unleash the design potential in codes Building codes and standards are often seen as obstacles to design excellence. Not any more! With the help of this down-to-earth guide, architecture professionals and students can stop dreading these rules and start using them to their advantage. Cracking the Codes makes codes and standards accessible by promoting a sound understanding of regulatory issues --without getting caught up in the minutiae. The book works the way projects do, moving through each stage of the planning process to identify and consolidate the basic regulatory requirements that must be addressed at every step along the way. It equips readers not only to recognize issues that call for regulatory research and to work effectively with appropriate consultants, but also to suggest strategic directions that are compatible with regulatory requirements and to make informed decisions in response to consultants' advice. In addition to the model building codes, including the forthcoming International Building Code, this book covers zoning ordinances and covenants, as well as rules related to accessibility, historic preservation, environmental quality, consumer protection, and a host of other critical issues. Information is extensively cross-referenced to make topics simple to find, and the uniform methodology applied to each regulatory issue makes the book both easy to follow and design-friendly. No project team should ever be held hostage by lack of familiarity with codes and standards. Cracking the Codes gives architects the freedom they need to break the rules without breaking the regulations.

Book excerpt: RICHARD STERLING SAWYER has now finally published Wildcatting ~ The Hills of Kettleman, an original 1936 manuscript written by his Grandfather, Ted Sterling, and his Great Aunt, Eloise Sterling Hirt. This unknown manuscript, WILDCATTING, was found in an old dusty file box upon Ted's death in 2001. Eloise was Ted's older sister and a prolific writer and actress, having help formed the original Pasadena Playhouse Theater in the 1920's. Ted was a successful attorney and land-man for The Texas Company (TEXACO) and previously involved with these oilmen and the companies who drilled the first big successful oil well in the Kettleman Hills in 1928. This is a rare Novel with engaging characters that you will not be able to put down until the final chapter is absorbed. A beautiful 'rags to riches' love story that reads like a historic movie script while the real vision of life's wheeling and dealing is played out in 1928 Los Angeles, New York, Santa Barbara, Montecito, San Francisco, Hanford and The Kettleman Hills. These are accurate descriptions of the actual places and people's attitudes of the time. Eloise has her own writing style and dramatic force that keeps you engaged in every facet of her storytelling while Ted's knowledge of the local geology and wildcat oil business is uniquely insightful. WILDCATTING ~ THE HILLS OF KETTLEMAN is filled with historic photos, details about the authors and an epilogue section with historical notes. This insightful story and theatrical writing combines to produce a tale of love and intrigue about one of California's great historic discoveries.
