This reference manual represents the current status of the Holmes Consulting Group procedures for the implementation of performance based evaluation of existing buildings. The procedures are continually evolving and so features may have been added and/or changes made which are not documented in the manual.
Performance based evaluation is a complex procedure which requires a high level of technical skill and engineering judgment to obtain valid results. The tools described in this Manual are just tools and do not substitute for skill and judgment.

Electrical Load Forecasting: Modeling and Model Construction
Succinct and understandable, this book is a step-by-step guide to the mathematics and construction of Electrical Load Forecasting models. Written by one of the world's foremost experts on the subject, Short and Long Term Electrical Load Forecasting provides a brief discussion of algorithms, there advantages and disadvantages and when they are best utilized. Supported by an online computer program, this book online arrangement allows readers construct, validate, and run short and long term models. The book begins with a brief discussion algorithm, there advantages and disadvantages and when they are best utilized. This is followed by a clear and rigorous exposition of the statistical techniques and algorithms such as regression, neural networks, fuzzy logic, and expert systems. In this book, readers find reliable and easy-to-use techniques designed to improve their forecasting techniques and construct more accurate models. The book begins with a good description of the basic theory and models needed to truly understand how the models are prepared so that they are not just blindly plugging and chugging numbers.

Petrology of Sedimentary Rocks, Second Edition
by Sam Boggs, Jr.
Cambridge University Press | 2009 | ISBN: 0521897165 | 612 pages | PDF | 15 Mb
This Second Edition maintains the fundamental structure of the original book, and presents a comprehensive treatment of sedimentary petrography and petrology. It has been thoroughly updated to include new concepts and ideas, and cutting-edge techniques such as cathodoluminescence imaging of sedimentary rocks and backscattered electron microscopy.
Numerous photographs and diagrams illustrate characteristic features while an extensive and up-to-date reference list provides a useful starting point for additional literature research.
This textbook is designed for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in sedimentary petrology. It is also a key reference for researchers and professional petroleum geoscientists wanting to develop an understanding of the petrologic characteristics of sedimentary rocks and their geological significance.
