"IBC2003E" is a spreadsheet program written in MS-Excel for the purpose of seismic loading analysis for buildings and various nonbuilding structures, as well as architectural, mechanical, and electrical components per the IBC 2003 and ASCE 7-02 Codes. Specifically, the total base seismic shear for buildings and nonbuilding structures is calculated. For Multi-Level Buildings, the vertical distribution of the total seismic shear is also determined, and a drift analysis can also be performed. The seismic restraint force for various components is also calculated.

Saudi Aramco Engineering Standards (SAES) are standards, approved by Saudi Aramco Management, that establish minimum requirements for the selection, design, construction, test, maintenance, and repair of equipment and facilities. The requirements in these standards are mandatory and apply Company-wide. All capital, non-capital and expense projects under the control of Engineering and Operations Services are required to use SAESs in effect on the Project Proposal's approval date. (See SAEP-14 for more information on Project Proposals.) Maintenance projects and all other work performed without Project Proposals are required to meet the SAESs in effect when the work is authorized. Permission to deviate from these requirements must follow the procedures of SAEP-302, Instructions for Obtaining a Waiver of a Mandatory Saudi Aramco Engineering Requirement.
Saudi Aramco Materials Systems Specifications (SAMSS) are specifications, approved by Saudi Aramco Management, that establish minimum engineering, design, fabrication,
and testing requirements for the procurement of material and equipment. The requirements in these specifications are mandatory and apply Company-wide in the procurement of material and equipment. SAMSS are written to be attached to purchase requisitions (PR), requests for quotation (RFQ), or purchase orders (PO). Specifiers should not extract portions of SAMSS documents, nor write new specifications to procure material or equipment already included within the Scope of approved SAMSSs. Permission to deviate from these requirements must follow the procedures of SAEP-302, Instructions for Obtaining a Waiver of a Mandatory Saudi Aramco Engineering Requirement".
Saudi Aramco Engineering Procedures (SAEPs) have been established as a uniform method of assembling directions to accomplish various engineering activities. These procedures have been approved by Saudi Aramco Management, and provide instructions for the activity and set responsibilities for accomplishing it. SAEPs are mandatory and apply on a Company-wide basis.
Saudi Aramco Inspection Procedures (SAIPs) have been established to provide a uniform and standardized method of performing specific inspection activities. These procedures have been approved by the Inspection Department Manager, and provide the direction and responsibilities necessary to complete the specific functions.
A SAIP is an instructional document that will aid the Saudi Aramco inspector in examining, testing and documenting the ongoing inspections or repairs of existing facilities, as well as new construction projects. The inspector should be familiar with the scope, content and application of the SAIP related to his functional responsibilities.
The Form 175 Inspection Requirements were developed to promote this assurance by condensing the inspection and test particulars of mandatory Saudi Aramco Engineering Requirements. These forms are used to specify the minimum required quality, certification, and verification for the purchase of all engineering material and equipment. The design of the Form 175 is flexible to allow adding unique requirements. Where this is necessary, prepare a Form 175 "Special", and include in the requisition package.
Also includes the following:
Saudi Aramco Best Practices (SABPs)
Saudi Aramco Engineering Reports (SAERs)

By Mario A. Gomarasca
Publisher: Springer | 2009 | 656 Pages | ISBN: 1402090137 | PDF | 11.78 MB
This volume presents a comprehensive and complete treatment. In a systematic way the complex topics and techniques are covered that can be assembled under Geospatial Information namely, Geodesy, Cartography, Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing, Informatics, Acquisition Systems, Global Positioning Systems, Digital Image Processing, Geographic Information Systems, Decision Support Systems, and WebGIS. It describes in detail and at an accessible level - too much math has been avoided - the state of current knowledge. Per chapter a detailed bibliography has been included.
As such, it will serve as a working tool not only to geoscientists and geographers but also to engineers, architects, computer scientists, urban planners, specialists in GIS, remote sensing, forestry, agricultural science, soil science geometry, environmental scientists and managers.
Applications can be found in security, risk management, monitoring, info-mobility, geo-positioning, food traceability, etc.

Learn Project Management on time and under budget! "Project Management Demystified" is valuable for both the novice project manager and the experienced. For the novice, it is a great way to understand PM basics in an easy-to-understand and practical way. Personalized stories demonstrate both what to do and what not to do. Experienced project managers will find 'gems' spread throughout the text to take away to improve their results. - Lee Krevat, IT Director, Business Strategic Alignment, Sempra Energy (A Fortune 500 company). Mr. Kemp truly demystifies project management, connecting the how and the why. Students and managers alike will gain both skills and confidence. - Malcolm Ryder, Principal and Chief Strategy Officer, Renovance, L.L.P. (An IT management consulting firm).Written in straightforward language, "Project Management Demystified" will help you gain "instant expertise" in project management - even if you have no previous formal training in executive skills. The author, who has trained thousands of first-time managers and team leaders, uses a host of powerful techniques to help you soak up what you really need to know. With "Project Management Demystified", you master the subject one simple step at a time - at your own speed. Unlike most books on project management, general principles are presented first - and the details follow. In order to make the learning process clear, simple, and useful, "Project Management Demystified" offers questions at the end of each chapter to pinpoint weaknesses, and case studies throughout the book to reinforce the entire process of project management.This unique, self-teaching guide shows you how to: Transform a good idea into a smooth-flowing project; Ensure project delivery with the "Six Keys to Success"; Turn disorganized "to-do" lists into effective action plans; Master people-management and team-building skills; Analyze design, development, budgeting, and scheduling; Calm the "storm period" - the transition to production; Bring your project in on time and under budget; Gain practical management skills you can use again and again; Build your "Project for Learning" and use reviews to retain information; and much, much more!

Delay Analysis in Construction Contracts
P. John Keane, Anthony F. Caletka,
Wiley-Blackwell (September 22, 2008)
English
1405156546
288 pages
PDF 2.93 MB
The most significant unanticipated costs on many construction projects are the financial impacts associated with delay and disruption to the works. Assessing these, and establishing a causal link from each delay event to its effect, contractual liability and the damages experienced as a direct result of each event, can be difficult and complex.
This book is a practical guide to the process of delay analysis and includes an in-depth review of the primary methods of delay analysis, together with the assumptions that underlie the precise calculations required in any quantitative delay analysis. The techniques discussed can be used on projects of any size, under all forms of construction contract, both domestic and international.
The authors discuss not only delay analysis techniques, but also their appropriateness under given circumstances, demonstrating how combined approaches may be applied where necessary. They also consider problematic issues including 'who owns the float', concurrent delay, early completion programmes, and disruption. The book, which is well illustrated, features practical worked examples and case studies demonstrating the techniques commonly used by experienced practitioners.
This is an invaluable resource to contractors, architects, engineers, surveyors, programmers and delay analysts, and will also be of interest to clients' professional advisors managing extension of time or delay claims, as well as construction lawyers who require a better understanding of the underlying assumptions on which many quantitative delay analyses are based.
