Improve Planning and Management on Any Construction Project with Powerful BIM Tools
Building information modeling (BIM) integrates 3D drawings and 4D animations to dramatically improve the communication, coordination, and planning of construction projects, while reducing risks, errors, and costs. Building Information Modeling is an in-depth resource that shows architects and building professionals how to capitalize on BIM concepts, tools, and techniques for their own building projects.
* An in-depth explanation of BIM concepts, tools, and techniques
* Guidance on applying BIM to new and retrofit construction projects
* More than 200 photos, charts, diagrams, and details of the BIM process
* Detailed case studies
Inside this Comprehensive Guide to BIM Technology
Background: • The Setting for BIM • Current Practice • Legal Considerations Building Information Modeling: • BIM Concepts • BIM Planning • BIM Implementation Software Tools: • Modeling Tools • Model Production • Model Analysis • Specific SoftwareOptions Learning BIM: • Learning Methods • Skill Sets • The Learners Case Studies
About the Author:

Note: It is an outdated version but I think someone from the forum will be useful. Besides what stole the original CD and the crack works great. No comment as to overwrite the file. Exe, replace it with Dlls is more than enough.
What kind of hand checks should we perform before the detail analysis and design of a steel structure? What should we check briefly so as to be sure that no major mistake happens by the use of the software?

Debris Flow: Mechanics, Prediction and Countermeasures
info:
Debris Flow: Mechanics, Prediction and Countermeasures
(Balkema: Proceedings and Monographs in Engineering, Water and Earth Sciences)
By Tamotsu Takahashi
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 0415435528
edition 2007
PDF 13,1 mb
448 pages
A comprehensive account, treating both theoretical and applied aspects of debris flow, this text begins with a discussion of fundamental mechanical aspects, such as flow characteristics, type classification, mechanics, occurrence and development, fully-developed flow and deposition processes. It sheds light on the application of theory in relation to computer-simulated reproductions of real disasters. Attention is paid to debris flow controlling structures, design effectiveness and performance, soft countermeasure problems, such as identification of debris flow prone ravines and the prediction of occurrence by the concept of precipitation threshold.

Environmental Hydraulics for Open Channel Flows
Publisher: Butterworth
Pages: 488
2004-12-13
ISBN 0750661658
PDF 7 MB
Environmental Hydraulics is a new text for students and professionals studying advanced topics in river and estuarine systems. The book contains the full range of subjects on open channel flows, including mixing and dispersion, Saint-Venant equations method of characteristics and interactions between flowing water and its surrondings (air entrainment, sediment transport).
Following the approach of Hubert Chanson's highly successful undergraduate textbook Hydraulics of Open Channel Flow, the reader is guided step-by-step from the basic principles to more advanced practical applications.
Each section of the book contains many revision exercises, problems and assignments to help the reader test their learning in practical situations.
·Complete text on river and estuarine systems in a single volume
·Step-by-step guide to practical applications
·Many worked examples and exercises

Looking for a ebook reader/device. any recommendations? any1 tried kindle(unfortunately its not sold in my country)? ipod touch? hp tablet? many thanks ahead.
Description:
This publication presents data, principles, and methods for use in planning, design, and construction of deep foundations.
Deep foundations are literally braced (supported) column elements transmitting structure loads down to the subgrade supporting medium.
