This new textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to every aspect of the technology of low-rise construction. It includes sub-structure (site work, setting out and foundations) and superstructure (flooring, roofs, finishes, fittings and fixtures). The material here covers the first year course requirement of all courses on which construction technology is taught - no matter what the ultimate qualification.
It offers tried and tested solutions to a range of construction problems and is organised following the sequence of construction. It will show what has been done in the past, demonstrating good practice - what works and what doesn't - and common faults. There are summaries of the more important BSI documents and reference to the latest building regulations.
Lengthy explanations are avoided by relying heavily on hundreds of illustrations, pairing detail drawings with clear photographs to show real life construction situations.

Autodesk® ImageModeler™ image-based modeling and photogrammetry software generates 3D models from 2D digital images, giving architects, designers, and entertainment content creators a new approach to 3D modeling.
Bridging the 2D and 3D worlds, Autodesk ImageModeler enables you to capture the reality as-built, take measurements of buildings, and easily create photorealistic 3D models. Editing, modeling, and texturing tools allow you to further edit, refine, and texture your rendered objects. Your 3D objects can then be exported into different formats.
Autodesk® ImageModeler™ image-based modeling software enables architects, designers, and entertainment content creators to quickly and easily create 3D models from 2D digital images or panoramas.
Use ImageModeler to capture the reality as-built:
* * Reconstruct photorealistic objects, scenes, and cities
* Integrate CAD projects with existing environments
* Take measurements of buildings
The software’s easy-to-learn, three-step workflow—calibration, modeling, and texturing—lets you achieve, stunning, photorealistic modeling with real-world accuracy. Additionally, ImageModeler 2009 offers support for Autodesk® 3ds Max®, Autodesk® Maya®, and AutoCAD® software.
Calibration
Calibrate the software for one to many pictures by matching a few points between the images. There is no need to input information about the camera.
Modeling
The modeling tools in ImageModeler are simple. A 3D model is generated using polygonal primitives. This model can then be refined by the user and detail added.
Texturing
Photorealistic texture maps are automatically extracted from the pixel information of the source images.

Structural Engineering Documents (SED)
A SED is a document of about 100 pages that makes technical information available, which is not provided by other associations or bodies. Each volume is written by one or several specialists and presents a comprehensive study on a specific theme in structural engineering.
The SEDs provide practical information in the form of reports of high scientific and technical standards on a wide range of structural engineering topics.
The readership includes practising structural engineers, teachers and students at a university level, as well as representatives of owners, operators and builders.
The SED Editorial Board is responsible for the planning and selection of technical contributions for the Association's series 'Structural Engineering Document' (SED).

Product Description:
Steel Concrete Composite Bridges outlines the various forms that modern steel-concrete composite bridges take, from simple beam bridges through to arches and trusses and modern cable stay forms. It brings together a wide variety of steel-concrete composite bridge types, many of which have not been covered in any existing book or design guide. It outlines design rules for composite action and provides examples of their use in a wide variety of practical applications. It shows how composite bridges may be designed simply from basic concepts without the need for a clause by clause checking of codes and standards. The book uses examples of various bridges to illustrate the methods of design and construction. The book looks impartially at the construction form and compares composite bridges with other forms and places limits on their use. It outlines emerging technologies such as folded plate webs, double composite action and extradosed girders, all of which are likely to grow in importance for the future bridge designer.

The cable stayed bridge is an elegant, economical and efficient structure. Virtually unknown 40 years ago, these bridges have become increasingly important as their properties have been more fully understood. They have recently proved to be highly cost-effective for short to medium spans. The second edition of this extremely popular book has been updated and enhanced to cover the rapid technological progress in this field. Exceptionally well illustrated, the book examines all aspects of the design of cable stayed bridges. Starting with a brief history, it addresses general design criteria and current technology, as well as static and dynamic analysis. The illustrations provide numerous examples of structures already built and document their critical parameters, including examples of outstanding structures that have recently been completed. The chapter dealing with stay technology has been thoroughly updated to take into account the new, better quality products available from cable suppliers. The results of extensive experimental investigations concerning cable stayed bridges with slender decks, mentioned briefly in the first edition, are also presented here. The state-of-the-art analysis, design and construction associated with this kind of structure is clearly described in this book, making it an invaluable tool for practicing engineers and for students. Cable Stayed Bridges provides an easy introduction to a new field in bridge construction and is the most comprehensive book available on the subject. Brief contents: Historical review; General design; Parametric study; Stay technology; Static design; Dynamic analysis; Examples of small and medium-span cable stayed bridges; Model tests of a cable stayed bridge with slender concrete deck.
