This standard gives recommendations for facility management briefing to ensure that design takes account of the expected performance of the facility in use.
It is applicable to the provision of documentation supporting this purpose during construction work and/or installation, testing and commissioning, handover and start-up of operations. Facility management briefing focuses on those aspects of design that are concerned, amongst other things, with ensuring the operational success of a refurbished or new facility.
It also considers matters relating to the safe and correct operation of the facility, as confirmed by the owner in communication with the designer and as recorded in the design brief.
It is not applicable to the preparation of a project brief or to design development.
BS 8536 is intended for use by individuals and organizations preparing or contributing to the preparation of a design brief, including owners refurbishing an existing facility, organizations procuring a new facility and designers.
The development of BS 8536 was sponsored by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills as part of its ongoing commitment to supporting innovation in the UK.

Falls from a height are one of the largest causes of death and injury in the workplace, creating an increasing demand for people to receive training for work at height. This demand is driven partly by legislation, as the Work at Height Regulations 2005, Regulation 5, explicitly requires anyone working at height to be competent, and partly by an increasing trend within industry for a professional approach to be taken to work activities which are potentially dangerous.
BS 8454 gives recommendations and guidance on the delivery of training and education for work at height, including rescue. It is applicable to training for work which falls within the scope of the Work at Height Regulations 2005. The standard is applicable to training for work at height in an industrial context, including work at height in factories and in the construction, civil engineering and cleaning sectors.
Who should use this standard?
BS 8454 is intended for use by all organizations and individuals providing such training and/or education, including organizations which provide such training to their own employees. It is applicable to all locations where such training is provided, whether at a dedicated training facility or at other training sites.
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) commends the use of BS 8454:2006 to those who have duties under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. This standard was drawn up with the participation of HSE representatives and it will be referred to in the relevant HSE publications.

Preservation Approaches for High-Traffic-Volume Roadways
Author: D. Peshkin, K. L. Smith, A. Wolters, J. Krstulovich, J. Moulthrop, C. Alvarado | Size: 6 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: TRB | Year: 2011 | pages: 179
This report documents the state of the practice of preservation treatment on asphalt and concrete pavements on high- and low-volume roadways. The report also report includes general guidelines on the application of preservation treatments on high-volume roadways.
The report also includes suggested guidelines on the application of preservation treatments on high-volume roadways.
SHRP 2 focuses on applied research in four focus areas:
• Safety, to prevent or reduce the severity of highway crashes by understanding driver behavior;
• Renewal, to address the aging infrastructure through rapid design and construction methods that cause minimal disruptions and produce lasting facilities;
• Reliability, to reduce congestion through incident reduction, management, response, and mitigation;
• Capacity, to integrate mobility, economic, environmental, and community needs in the planning and designing of new transportation capacity.

The complete guide to site analysis—for better plans and better projects
Context-sensitive site planning leads to better development proposals and, ultimately, to higher quality built environments. By responding to inherent site opportunities and constraints, context-sensitive development—and redevelopment—creates attractive and pedestrian-friendly places to live, work, and play.
The expanded and extensively revised new edition, Site Analysis: A Contextual Approach to Sustainable Land Planning and Site Design retains the earlier edition’s emphasis on the site-planning process. With several project case studies from leading design firms and more than 180 illustrations, the Second Edition ref lects the state of the art in sustainable land planning and site design. Some of the topics covered include:
- Site selection and programming
- Mapping of physical, biological, and cultural attributes
- Site suitability analysis
- Conceptual design
- Design development
- Feasibility studies
- Site plan review

MATLAB is an incredibly powerful tool that integrates computation, visualization, and programming in a flexible, open environment. It offers engineers, scientists, and mathematicians an intuitive language for expressing problems and their solutions mathematically and graphically. Complex numeric and symbolic problems can be solved in a short time by interfacing it with a programming language such as C, Fortran, or Java.

Climate change and peak fuel are issues that affect society, technology, politics, markets—and also our built environment. Rather than just adapting to these changes, a proactive and integrated approach is needed, combining sustainable policy, planning, and design.
Smart Building in a Changing Climate presents the latest developments in the area of climate-responsive, energy-effective policy, planning, and design. New approaches include designing with nature, energy-based planning, bioclimatic architecture, adaptable building strategies, and innovative technology such as the Breathing Window.
Subjects include: Indoor & Outdoor Climate; Regional & Urban Planning; Building Design; The Building Skin; Flexibility & Transformation; Policy & Management. Also with Ronald Waterman, Ken Yeang, Wubbo Ockels, John Worthington, and Jón Kristinsson.
