This book was released on 2017-06-13 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When working on oil and gas offshore projects the 3D layout is one of the most essential parts according to Jacques Daubian, author and engineering and construction specialist. The objective of the company during the engineering and construction phases is to deliver the project on time and safely to the field operators and to ensure everything will be maintained safely, during the life of the offshore operations. All major oil and gas companies and contractors use 3D software for the design, layout, drawings and procurement of their projects. Each 3D model must be perfect during the detail engineering to be able to extract all the information necessary for the construction. The layout of offshore oil and gas projects start day one of the basic engineering and everything must be fixed before the completion of 50% of your detail engineering to avoid any engineering problems and delay during construction.The layout using 3D software is today an obligation. Jacques Daubian latest book The New 3D Layout for Oil & Gas Offshore Projects will aid projects struggling with their 3D model layouts as well as those simply looking for a new and more effective approach. The book includes a checklist, listed by discipline, of what must be done to ensure the success of your project. Jacques Daubian draws on personal experience within the engineering and construction industry to provide an informative and helpful guide. For 12 years Jacques Daubian examined the huge degradation of the layout aspect of offshore projects and has since re-evaluated this, as demonstrated in The New 3D Layout for Oil & Gas Offshore Projects.

This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on his own experience within the engineering and construction field, Jacques Daubian presents 3D Model Reviews Using Navisworks for Oil & Gas Offshore Projects; an informative and educational read for professionals working with 3D models and participating in 3D model reviews. The 3D model reviews are the particular moments during the project where the contractor and his client sit together to review the 3D model. This step is repeated a minimum of three times during a project and is imperative to the success of any oil and gas offshore project. It allows time for the client to make comments on the project thus far. Both the contractor and the client must spend time reviewing the 3D model and the participants must be qualified and efficient. 3D Model Reviews Using Navisworks for Oil & Gas Offshore Projects highlights the importance of the 3D model review stage in any project, reminding the reader to: – Avoid any delay during the construction – 90% of shop drawings will be extracted from your 3D model, for this reason the 3D model must be perfect – The cost of construction is a lot more important than the cost of engineering. You must spend time reviewing the 3D model – The goal is to safely deliver the project to the client field operation team. Jacques Daubian also draws on his experience to demonstrate why the software Navisworks will assist projects in having quick and efficient 3D model reviews, allowing for accurate comments and feedback. Jacques also explains how NavisWorks allows for the easy creation of graphic and text comments. This book is not for the general reader; it is written to inform and educate those working within the engineering industry, specifically those using 3D models, operating the 3D software and those participating in the reviews.

Download or read book Constructing the Future written by Ghassan Aouad and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-12-05 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential book introduces the concept of nD modelling, which takes the theory of computer modelling of the built environment to n dimensions. nD modelling utilizes a decision support tool for systematic assessment and comparison between various design parameters such as cost, accessibility, maintainability, sustainability, crime, energy, whole life costing, acoustics and scheduling among others. Constructing the Future is a comprehensive book which provides a global perspective on the concept of nD modelling and examines its impact on construction, from development to application. The text offers a critique of competing views that seek to justify (or ignore) the role of nD modelling in the future of construction as well as describing developments in this area which are already happening worldwide. Presenting a thorough critique of competing views as well as providing guidance on best practice, Constructing the Future is a bold, well-grounded and illustrated title introducing construction management professionals and researchers to this exciting new development in the quest for a single building and product model.

This book was released on 2009-11-09 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Construction productivity-how well, how quickly, and at what cost buildings and infrastructure can be constructed-directly affects prices for homes and consumer goods and the robustness of the national economy. Industry analysts differ on whether construction industry productivity is improving or declining. Still, advances in available and emerging technologies offer significant opportunities to improve construction efficiency substantially in the 21st century and to help meet other national challenges, such as environmental sustainability. Advancing the Competitiveness and Efficiency of the U.S. Construction Industry identifies five interrelated activities that could significantly improve the quality, timeliness, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability of construction projects. These activities include widespread deployment and use of interoperable technology applications; improved job-site efficiency through more effective interfacing of people, processes, materials, equipment, and information; greater use of prefabrication, preassembly, modularization, and off-site fabrication techniques and processes; innovative, widespread use of demonstration installations; and effective performance measurement to drive efficiency and support innovation. The book recommends that the National Institute of Standards and Technology work with industry leaders to develop a collaborative strategy to fully implement and deploy the five activities
