Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new text assists the student who has learned the AutoCAD product and now needs to make the transition from that environment to the MicroStation design format. Conversely, the text can be used to transition from MicroStation to AutoCAD. Each chapter presents a quick summary of a specific feature in AutoCAD, followed by the related feature in MicroStation. The student who must work with both products will find this text to be a solid basis for understanding how "the other side" thinks. Translating data between the two products, cross training, and other issues are discussed thoroughly.
Download or read book Introduction to MicroStation written by David Martin and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-04-26 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to MicroStation: A Project-Based Approach for Learning MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries 3) The book is designed to give the student an introduction to the MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries 3) software. The book contains step-by-step project tutorials with screenshots using the MicroStation program. The student begins with two-dimensional versions of 12 projects. These projects are of mechanical-type projects in both imperial and metric units. Topics Include: Orthographic Projection Dimensioning Tools and Styles Use of Line Styles AccuDraw (Compass and Coordinate Key-In) Feature Modeling Tools Reference Files Geometrical Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) Symbols Printing to PDF Files The student will also be introduced to the use of welding symbols and the process of creating Cells (Symbols) for use within a weldment project. Once the student completes these projects, they will be instructed in the use of the three-dimensional portion of the program. The student will draw the initial projects in a 3D format. Instruction in the conversion of a 3D solid to a set of 2D orthographic views is also covered. The final part of the book will consist of an assembly draw of a Robotic Gripper End Effector. The student will first draw the parts in 3D format. These parts will be used to create dimensioned, 2D versions of the projects. The parts will then be assembled to show exploded and assembled versions. There is also a companion website for the book that is maintained by the author. Purchasers of the book will be able to download support files and view tutorial videos for each of the projects presented in the book. Emphasis is placed on making the learning process as quick and as easy as possible with a minimum of extra information. This way the student may concentrate on completing the projects and becoming a productive MicroStation drafter and designer in a relatively short time.

Book excerpt: "The BIM Handbook presents the technology and processes behind BIM and how architects, engineers, contractors and sub-contractors, construction and facility owners (AECO) can take advantage of the new technology and work process. Unlike CAD, BIM is a major paradigm shift in the documentation, work processes and exchange of project information. It facilitates collaboration and further automation, in both design and construction. AEC professionals need a handbook to guide them through the various BIM technologies and related processes. The collaborative nature of BIM requires professionals to view BIM from various industry perspectives and understand how BIM supports multiple project participants. The BIM Handbook reviews BIM processes and tools from multiple perspectives: the owner, architects and engineers, contractors, subcontractors and fabricators"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geographic information science (GIScience) is an emerging field that combines aspects of many different disciplines. Spatial literacy is rapidly becoming recognized as a new, essential pier of basic education, alongside grammatical, logical and mathematical literacy. By incorporating location as an essential but often overlooked characteristic of what we seek to understand in the natural and built environment, geographic information science (GIScience) and systems (GISystems) provide the conceptual foundation and tools to explore this new frontier. The Encyclopedia of Geographic Information Science covers the essence of this exciting, new, and expanding field in an easily understood but richly detailed style. In addition to contributions from some of the best recognized scholars in GIScience, this volume contains contributions from experts in GIS' supporting disciplines who explore how their disciplinary perspectives are expanded within the context of GIScienceâ€"what changes when consideration of location is added, what complexities in analytical procedures are added when we consider objects in 2, 3 or even 4 dimensions, what can we gain by visualizing our analytical results on a map or 3D display? Key Features Brings together GIScience literature that is spread widely across the academic spectrum Offers details about the key foundations of GIScience, no matter what their disciplinary origins Elucidates vocabulary that is an amalgam of all of these fields Key Themes Conceptual Foundations Cartography and Visualization Design Aspects Data Manipulation Data Modeling Geocomputation Geospatial Data Societal Issues Spatial Analysis Organizational and Institutional Aspects The Encyclopedia of Geographic Information Science is an important resource for academic and corporate libraries.

Download or read book Computation Works written by Xavier De Kestelier and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architects are now taking advantage of the computer in new ways through experimentation with algorithmic and simulation-driven design. Computation Works: The Building of Algorithmic Thought focuses on this emerging theme in design practice, showcasing built and soon-to-be-built projects and providing a state of the art in computational design. Computational design is considered to be first a design tool, and second a series of instruments that can be applied in the creation of architecture. It allows architects to incorporate performance analysis and knowledge about material, tectonics and the parameters of production machinery. Moving towards a new role as hybrid practitioners, architects are taking concepts from other disciplines and customising architectural and other CAD software. In addition to the discussion of built projects, a further series of texts examines new custom software instruments. New digital tools provide new modes of representation, new methods of evaluation, and new techniques for design exploration. The development of new computational tools can create more responsive designs, allowing architects to explore new design options and to analyse architectural decisions during the design process. This issue raises important questions such as: How is computation changing the way architects design? Are the design tools and methods related to the result? What is computational design in the context of architectural practice? and How is computation changing the processes of design and construction?
Download or read book Artificial Intelligence in Design 02 written by Asko Riitahuhta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-07-31 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the foundations for change in our society comes from designing. Its genesis is the notion that the world around us either is unsuited to our needs or can be improved. The need for designing is driven by a society's view that it can improve or add value to human existence well beyond simple subsistence. As a consequence of designing the world which we inhabit is increasingly a designed rather than a naturally occurring one. In that sense it is an "artificial" world. Designing is a fundamental precursor to manufacturing, fabrication, construction or implementation. Design research aims to develop an understanding of designing and to produce models of designing that can be used to aid designing. Artificial intelligence has provided an environmental paradigm within which design research based on computational constructions, can be carried out. Design research can be carried out in variety of ways. It can be viewed as largely an empirical endeavour in which experiments are designed and executed in order to test some hypothesis about some design phenomenon or design behaviour. This is the approach adopted in cognitive science. It often manifests itself through the use of protocol studies of designers. The results of such research form the basis of a computational model. A second view is that design research can be carried out by positing axioms and then deriving consequences from them.
