* Read intelligent data from the original design files and view it alongside the model.
* DataTools feature enables import of live data from external databases using SQL through ODBC, which can then be displayed together with the model.
* SwitchBack feature enables easy opening of the current model and viewpoint in the original design software.
* Automate tasks or extend functionality using the extensive COM API.
Streamline Workflow
* Supports all major 3D design and laser scan file formats.
* Streams large models and content intelligently from disk or Internet, enabling navigation around the design as model loads.
* Combines models, regardless of file format, into a single unified model.
* Provides smooth, real-time navigation with a range of tools including Walk, Look Around, Zoom, Zoom Box, Pan, Orbit, Examine, Fly, and Turntable.
* Provides gravity, collision detection, and customizable third-person avatars. Enables navigation through models without moving through walls. More Info:

Recommendations for the Seismic Design of High-rise Buildings
info:
There is a resurgence of high rise and ultra-high rise building construction around the world. The design of these tall buildings in seismically active regions varies dramatically from region to region.
Whereas rigorous performance-based assessments are required in some countries, including Japan and China, many other countries do not require anything beyond traditional design practice that is based on fundamental mode response and force reduction factors.
The objective of this Guide is to set out best-practice principles for the seismic design of high rise buildings for any level of seismic hazard. Best practice for high rise buildings is not represented by the traditional design codes such as the Uniform Building Code (UBC) [ICBO, 1997] or its successor, the International Building Code (IBC) [ICC, 2006]. Although these codes are referenced for the design of high rise buildings in many countries, in part because the UBC (IBC) forms the basis for many national building codes, they are not suitable as the seismic design basis for high rise buildings.

Kelly Luckett, "Green Roof Construction and Maintenance"
McGraw-Hill Professional | 2009 | ISBN: 007160880X | 208 pages | PDF | 10,7 MB
A Complete Guide to Building and Maintaining Green Roofs
Written by an industry expert in green roof design and installation, this GreenSource book presents all of the information you need to skillfully design, construct, and maintain green roofs. You will find a wealth of practical details gathered through real-world implementations and independent research.
Green Roof Construction and Maintenance explains how to design a green roof, plan for irrigation and drainage, select and place soil and plants, and maintain the entire setup. The book also discusses return on investment, LEED design specifications, and the myriad short- and long-term environmental benefits of green roofs. Filled with step-by-step illustrations and full-color photographs, this is a valuable, hands-on guide to a rapidly emerging trend in the sustainability movement.
Green Roof Construction and Maintenance includes:
Key questions to ask at each stage of the green building process
Tested tips and techniques for successful structural design
Construction methods for new and existing buildings
Information on insulation, drainage, detailing, irrigation, and plant selection
Details on optimal soil formulation
Illustrations featuring various stages of construction
Best practices for green roof maintenance
A survey of environmental benefits, including evapo-transpiration, storm-water management, habitat restoration, and improvement of air quality
Tips on the LEED design and certification process
Considerations for assessing return on investment
Color photographs of successfully installed green roofs
Useful checklists, tables, and charts

Nonlinear Wave Dynamics: Selected Papers of the Symposium Held in Honor of Philip L-F Liu's 60th Birthday
Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company | ISBN: 9812709037 | edition 2009 | PDF | 316 pages | 20,7 mb
In September 2006, research leaders in the field of coastal engineering, fluid mechanics, and wave theory met at Cornell University to celebrate the 60th birthday of Prof. Philip L-F Liu. This volume is a compilation of the research papers presented at the symposium, and includes both review and new research papers. Topics such as nonlinear wave theory, tsunamis, wave-structure interaction, turbulence, and modeling of complex sediment transport are discussed in this volume. All of the contributing authors are research collaborators of Prof. Liu, and include leaders in coastal engineering such as Maarten Dingemans, Hwung-Hweng Hwung, Nobu Kobayashi, Inigo Losada, Hocine Oumeraci, Costas Synolakis, and Harry Yeh.

This book is devoted to the discussion and studies of simple and efficient numerical procedures for large deflection and elasto-plastic analysis of steel frames under static and dynamic loading.
In chapter 1, the basic fundamental behaviour and philosophy for design of structural steel is discussed, emphasising different modes of buckling and the inter-relationship between different types of analysis. In addition to this, different levels of refinement for non-linear analysis are described. An introduction is also given to the well-known P-&dgr; and P-&Dgr; effects. Chapter 2 presents the basic matrix method of analysis and gives several examples of linear analysis of semi-rigid pointed frames. It is evident from this that one must have a good understanding of first-order linear analysis before handling a second-order non-linear analysis. In chapter 3, the linearized bifurcation and second-order large deflection are compared and the detailed procedure for a second-order analysis based on the Newton-Raphson scheme is described. Chapter 4 introduces various solution schemes for tracing of post-buckling equilibrium paths and the Minimum Residual Displacement control method with arc-length load step control is employed for the post-buckling analysis of two and three dimensional structures. Chapter 5 addresses the non-linear behaviour and modelling of semi-rigid connections while several numerical functions for description of moment versus rotation curves of typical connection types are introduced. The scope of the work in chapter 6 covers semi-rigid connections and material yielding to the static analysis of steel frames. Chapter 7 studies the cyclic response of steel frames with semi-rigid joints and elastic material characteristics. In the last chapter the combined effects of semi-rigid connections and plastic hinges on steel frames under time-dependent loads are studied using a simple springs-in-series model. For computational effectiveness and efficiency, the concentrated plastic hinge concept is used throughout these studies.
