Book Microcomputer Software for Civil Engineers

Download or read book Microcomputer Software for Civil Engineers written by Howard Falk and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about software packages for use by civil engineers. It is written for engineers who need software that can do the job without re quiring that they become computer experts or programmers. The purpose of this book is to present a broad picture of the personal computer packages now available for use by civil engineers. Each chapter is devoted to an area, such as structures, surveying, hydrology, drafting, or equation-solving, in which a number of software packages are presently offered for use with personal computers. The chapter introductions explain what kinds of design or analysis or other tasks these packages perform, outlining the available choices, and comparing the capabilities of the var ious packages. Detailed reviews of individual packages follow. The emphasis here is on what the user must know and do to employ the capabilities of the package. Going beyond general description, these reviews also explain what the pack ages actually will and will not do. Although many packages are covered, there is no attempt here at completeness. In every category covered in the book, many more packages exist than those that have been reviewed. In the fast-moving field of engineering software, many new packages are cur rently being written and marketed.

Book Computer Aided Design Guide for Architecture Engineering and Construction

Download or read book Computer Aided Design Guide for Architecture Engineering and Construction written by Ghassan Aouad and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen major changes in the approach to Computer Aided Design (CAD) in the architectural, engineering and construction (AEC) sector. CAD is increasingly becoming a standard design tool, facilitating lower development costs and a reduced design cycle. Not only does it allow a designer to model designs in two and three dimensions but also to model other dimensions, such as time and cost into designs. Computer Aided Design Guide for Architecture, Engineering and Construction provides an in-depth explanation of all the common CAD terms and tools used in the AEC sector. It describes each approach to CAD with detailed analysis and practical examples. Analysis is provided of the strength and weaknesses of each application for all members of the project team, followed by review questions and further tasks. Coverage includes: 2D CAD 3D CAD 4D CAD nD modelling Building Information Modelling parametric design, virtual reality and other areas of future expansion. With practical examples and step-by step guides, this book is essential reading for students of design and construction, from undergraduate level onwards.

Book Requirements Engineering for Computer Integrated Environments in Construction

Download or read book Requirements Engineering for Computer Integrated Environments in Construction written by Ghassan Aouad and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-11-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efficient communication, collaboration, data exchange and sharingare crucial for the success of today's many multi-disciplinary andinterdisciplinary work environments. The implementation of computerintegrated environments (CIE) is increasing and the requirementsengineering necessary for the development of these systems iscritical. Requirements Engineering for Computer Integrated Environmentsin Construction provides an important source of information andadvice for organizations needing bridge the gap between users anddevelopers in the implementation of computer integrated solutionsas well as for consultants providing services to their clients inCIE development. The framework explained in the book is comprehensive andaccessible. It provides a set of tools and techniques enablingreaders to design, manage and deliver effective CIE-type systems inany complex organization – from construction andmanufacturing to the information technology and service sectors.Construction companies for example, can use the framework providedto implement building information modelling to manage thediagnosis, planning, implementation and monitoring stages in BIMadoption. Based on real experiences and lessons learned from many years ofsystem development, this book offers an excellent resource forresearchers and postgraduate students interested in CIE developmentfor all multi-disciplinary and interdisciplinary workenvironments.

Book Perspectives in Civil Engineering

Download or read book Perspectives in Civil Engineering written by Jeffrey S. Russell and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report contains 27 papers that serve as a testament to the state-of-the-art of civil engineering at the outset of the 21st century, as well as to commemorate the ASCE's Sesquicentennial. Written by the leading practitioners, educators, and researchers of civil engineering, each of these peer-reviewed papers explores a particular aspect of civil engineering knowledge and practice. Each paper explores the development of a particular civil engineering specialty, including milestones and future barriers, constraints, and opportunities. The papers celebrate the history, heritage, and accomplishments of the profession in all facets of practice, including construction facilities, special structures, engineering mechanics, surveying and mapping, irrigation and water quality, forensics, computing, materials, geotechnical engineering, hydraulic engineering, and transportation engineering. While each paper is unique, collectively they provide a snapshot of the profession while offering thoughtful predictions of likely developments in the years to come. Together the papers illuminate the mounting complexity facing civil engineering stemming from rapid growth in scientific knowledge, technological development, and human populations, especially in the last 50 years. An overarching theme is the need for systems-level approaches and consideration from undergraduate education through advanced engineering materials, processes, technologies, and design methods and tools. These papers speak to the need for civil engineers of all specialties to recognize and embrace the growing interconnectedness of the global infrastructure, economy, society, and the need to work for more sustainable, life-cycle-oriented solutions. While embracing the past and the present, the papers collected here clearly have an eye on the future needs of ASCE and the civil engineering profession.
