This book develop a highly efficient construction supply chain management (CSCM) solution that decreases risk and increases profitability. This authoritative volume provides proven strategies for the lean construction approach, including just-in-time purchasing, supplier evaluation, subcontractor selection, subcontractor relationship management, equipment acquisition, information sharing, and project quality management.
There are numerous illustrations and ready-to-use forms-and a step-by-step economic evaluation for equipment acquisition.
Construction Purchasing and Supply Chain Management explains how to achieve maximum integration with upstream and downstream supply chain members using the latest technologies. You will be able to establish a strategic CSCM framework to meet the budgetary and scheduling goals of any project. This comprehensive, step-by-step guide to CSCM is useful for project owners, design engineers, architects, prime contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and construction managers involved in construction projects throughout the world. Discover how to:
* Ensure the on-time and cost-effective delivery of materials,equipment, and services
* Effectively negotiate with suppliers and subcontractors
* Manage superior subcontractor and supplier relationships
* Evaluate and select suppliers based on their value-added capabilities
* Analyze and negotiate subcontracting services
* Plan for, purchase, and lease construction equipment
* Leverage technology, safety measures, and information sharing to increase productivity and profitability
* Understand the components of horizontal and vertical construction supply chain operating models

1.1 This document specifies the different types of inspection documents supplied to the purchaser, in
accordance with the requirements of the order, for the delivery of all metallic products e.g. plates, sheets, bars,
forgings, castings, whatever their method of production.
1.2 This document may also apply to non-metallic products.
1.3 This document is used in conjunction with the product specifications which specify the technical delivery
conditions of the products.
NOTE 1 The list of information that may be included in the inspection documents can be found in appropriate documents, e.g.
EN 10168 for steel.

This European Standard lists the information that may be communicated and includes a brief description in the inspection documents of iron and steel products as described in EN 10021 and EN 10204. By laying down standardized designations and definitions for information likely to appear in inspection documents and by introducing code numbers for each of the designated sections, this European Standard intends to contribute to the elimination of communication difficulties in European trade.

This European Standard specifies the general technical delivery conditions for all steel products covered by
EN 10079 with the exception of steel castings and powder metallurgical products.
Where the delivery requirements agreed for the order or specified in the appropriate product standard differ from the general technical delivery conditions defined in this European Standard, then the requirements agreed for the order or specified in the appropriate product standard apply.
NOTE Inspection documents are covered by EN 10168 and EN 10204.

Offshore oil and gas production was conducted throughout the entire 20th century, but the industry's modern importance and vibrancy did not start until the early 1970s, when the North Sea became a major producer. Since then, the expansion of the offshore oil industry has been continuous and rapid.
Pipelines, and more generally long tubular structures, are major oil and gas industry tools used in exploration, drilling, production, and transmission. Installing and operating tubular structures in deep waters places unique demands on them. Technical challenges within the field have spawned significant research and development efforts in a broad range of areas.

ABSTRACT
A theoretical study of the behaviour of structured soil is presented. A new model, which is referred to as the Structured Cam Clay model, is formulated by introducing the influence of soil structure into Modified Cam Clay. The proposed model is hierarchical, i.e., it is identical to the Modified Cam Clay soil model if a soil has no structure or if its structure is removed by loading. Three new parameters describing the effects of soil structure are introduced and the results of a parametric study are also presented. The proposed model has been used to predict the behaviour of structured soils in both compression and shearing tests. By making comparisons of predictions with experimental data and by conducting the parametric study it is demonstrated that the new model provides satisfactory qualitative and quantitative modelling of many important features of the behaviour of structured soil
