Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication breaks new ground. It is the first document to provide extensive life-span assessments (for insurance purposes) for a wide range of building components which are classified within the concept of quality specifications. A further benefit is that it does not seek to be prescriptive. It indicative 'benchmarks' against which new or differing specifications can be assessed, in that sense it is both robust and flexible.

Book Synopsis The Green Guide to Specification by : Jane Anderson
Download or read book The Green Guide to Specification written by Jane Anderson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-03-09 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like its predecessors, this fourth edition of The Green Guide to Specification provides designers and specifiers with easy-to-use guidance on how to make the best environmental choices when selecting construction materials and components. It is more comprehensive than its predecessors; it contains more than 1200 specifications used in six types of building: • Commercial buildings, such as offices • Educational buildings, such as schools and universities • Healthcare buildings, such as hospitals • Retail • Residential • Industrial. The principal building elements covered in this edition of The Green Guide to Specification include: • Floors • Roofs • Walls • Windows • Insulation • Landscaping. The performance of each specification is measured against a range of environmental impacts, including: • climate change • toxicity • fossil fuel and ozone depletion • levels of emissions and pollutants • mineral and water extraction. The Green Guide to Specification provides robust information to assist decision-making by translating numerical life-cycle assessment data into a simple A+ to E scale of environmental ratings, enabling specifiers to make meaningful comparisons between materials and components. The Green Guide to Specification is an essential tool for architects, surveyors, building managers and property owners seeking to reduce the environmental impact of their buildings by informed and responsible selection of construction materials and components.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 2004. In the process of harmonising the wide-ranging interests in this field, the series of international conferences Durability of Building Materials and Components, of which this is the seventh, has played a decisive role by bridging between different material and product areas and by giving researchers and practitioners an opportunity to meet every third year to discuss the latest R&D achievements. This conference covers a number of themes ranging from theoretical aspects of service life prediction to the practical implementation of knowledge on durability of building products in standards. This collection is the proceedings and will serve as a valuable reference to all interested in the wide and stimulating area of durability and service life prediction in building and construction. This is Volume Two on Testing, Design and Standardisation.

Book Synopsis New Generation Whole-Life Costing by : Ian Ellingham
Download or read book New Generation Whole-Life Costing written by Ian Ellingham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-05-07 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Generation Whole-Life Costing presents an innovative approach to decision-making and risk management for construction and real estate. It applies the options-based approach that has revolutionized the management of uncertainty in the business world. Based on government-sponsored research at Cambridge Architectural Research Ltd., the book introduces the idea of 'lifecycle options'. The desirability of whole-life costing is widely accepted, but take-up levels have been low. One problem is that traditional techniques fail to take account of future uncertainty. In contrast, the new options-based approach considers a diversity of possible futures, and favours flexible strategies that incorporate lifecycle options. This approach leads to more cost-effective and sustainable decisions, minimizing the risk of under- or over-investment. This book is structured around realistic case studies that demonstrate the prevalence of lifecycle options. These case studies are backed up by clear presentation of basic principles and mathematical techniques allowing the book to be read either as a stimulating introduction to new concepts, or as a guide to mathematical methods.

Using full colour illustrations, the Guide lists and describes a wide range of construction defects, selected and rated by Construction Audit Ltd. on the basis of a decade of experience gained in auditing the construction of over 4,000 newbuild housing schemes. Each defect is clearly related to its potential consequences before being presented in the context of a `problem' and how it may be avoided. Common mistakes are highlighted and the reader directed to an extensive range of further reading.

This comprehensive book is essential reading for students on surveying and construction management programmes, as well as built environment practitioners with cost or project management responsibilities.
Book Synopsis Profitable Partnering for Lean Construction by : Clive Thomas Cain
Download or read book Profitable Partnering for Lean Construction written by Clive Thomas Cain and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lean procurement techniques given in this practical guide couldsave clients up to 40% of total design and construction costs; casehistory evidence is included to prove that the techniques reallywork. The guide goes on to explain in equal depth the leanconstruction techniques that supply-side design and constructionfirms (including trades contractors) need to adopt to deliver thesavings while boosting their profit margins. Written in an accessible style, it explains why lean constructiontechniques will only deliver this high level of savings if they areunderpinned by long-term, strategic, supply-side partneringrelationships between consultants, construction contractors, tradescontractors and manufacturers.
