In 1991 the Chartered Institute of Building initiated a multi-institute task force and a Code of Practice for Project Management was published in 1992, with a second edition in 1996. Like previous editions, this third edition has been substantially revised to embody the results of intensive consultation between the CIOB and representatives of the professional bodies concerned with construction and development.
The Code is divided into two sections:
the first covers eight stages associated with projects from inception to completion, each one well supported with diagrams, flowcharts and checklists
the second section contains a project handbook, complete with guidance documentation and checklists.
The third edition features new guidance on:
project planning
EU procurement procedures
performance management plan
partnering
project risk assessment
environmental impact assessment
procurement options and
value for money framework.
Effective project management involves the assessment and management of risk, and this is a strong theme throughout the Code.
The Code of Practice provides an authoritative guide to the principles and practice of construction project management. It will be a key reference source for clients, contractors and professionals, irrespective of the size and nature of the project. Much of the information is also relevant to project managers in other commercial spheres.

Describing the different variables involved in arc welding and how they interact, this state-of-the-art reference examines the welding capabilities of mechanized, automatic, adaptive control, and robotic systems. Delineating the advantages of welding automation and offering practical strategies for its implementation, Arc Welding Automation analyzes the necessary components for various types of automated welding suggests which arc-welding automatic machines are most appropriate for particular types of manufacturing discusses automatic welding equipment for high-volume production of like parts elucidates the design of automatic welding fixtures considers specific welding attachments for robots and more!

The Orphan Tsunami of 1700: Japanese Clues to a Parent Earthquake in North America
The Orphan Tsunami of 1700: Japanese Clues to a Parent Earthquake in North America

The outside world scarcely knew of northwestern North America in the year 1700. The Pacific coast, from southcentral Alaska to Oregon's Cape Blanco, was uncharted until the Spanish and English explorations of the 1770s. Yet, when tectonic plates suddenly shifted there in 1700, a train of ocean waves -- a tsunami -- sped across the Pacific Ocean. When the waves came ashore in Japan, they flooded fields and washed away houses. Samurai, merchants, and villagers recorded the mysterious event, but they observed no storm and felt no parent earthquake. In Japan, this tsunami was an orphan.
The Orphan Tsunami of 1700 tells this transpacific detective story by presenting its primary sources, Japanese documents and North American sediments and tree rings. They tell of a catastrophe a century before Lewis and Clark's expedition that now guides preparations for future earthquakes and tsunamis in the North Pacific.
A rich array of graphic detail and narrative explains the creation, action, and lasting effects of earthquakes and tsunamis.

Seismic Behavior of Steel Buildings with Combined Rigid and Semi-Rigid Frames
Research
Dr. Shen's expertise and research interests are in the areas of inelastic behavior of steel structures and earthquake engineering, including cyclic behavior and earthquake-resistant design of steel structures, wind and earthquake induced dynamic problems in structures, and seismic retrofit. His current research includes model-based simulations of large-scale structures; application of imaging technology in structural engineering collapse and failure of structures under natural and man-made disasters; performance-based design of steel structures using energy approach; and seismic study of semi-rigid steel frames. Current projects under study include: (1) Performance-based seismic design of concentrically and eccentrically braced frames; (2) Seismic study of deep column steel moment frames using model-based simulation; (3) Seismic design of steel column base plates; (4) Pushover study of building frames; (5) Inelastic behavior of lateral-torsional buckling; (6) Structural heath monitoring of building structures; and (7) Tension-compression balanced steel braced frames. Dr. Shen is a member of EERI, AISC and ASCE.
