A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) —Fifth Edition reflects the collaboration and knowledge of working project managers and provides the fundamentals of project management as they apply to a wide range of projects. This internationally recognized standard gives project managers the essential tools to practice project management and deliver organizational results.
• A 10th Knowledge Area has been added; Project Stakeholder Management expands upon the importance of appropriately engaging project stakeholders in key decisions and activities.
• Project data information and information flow have been redefined to bring greater consistency and be more aligned with the Data, Information, Knowledge and Wisdom (DIKW) model used in the field of Knowledge Management.
• Four new planning processes have been added: Plan Scope Management, Plan Schedule Management, Plan Cost Management and Plan Stakeholder Management: These were created to reinforce the concept that each of the subsidiary plans are integrated through the overall project management plan.

The Direct Analysis Method: Bridging the Gap from Linear Elastic Analysis to Advanced Analysis in Steel Frame Design
Author: Andrea E. Surovek and Ronald D. Ziemian | Size: 181 KB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: ASCE | Year: 2005 | pages: 11
Developments in analytical software and computer hardware over the past few
decades provide engineers with powerful tools for more realistically considering the
behavior of steel structures. More sophisticated methods of analysis offer significant
advantages in steel frame design by eliminating the need to calculate effective length
factors and more directly including factors that affect system and member strength .
One such method, the Direct Analysis approach, accounts for the effects of member
inelasticity and frame imperfections in the assessment of both member and system
strength. The latter is achieved by directly including these effects in calculating the
distribution of forces in the structural system. This approach is applicable for use in
the design office using commercially available software and it is applicable to a wide
variety of structural problems including braced frames, moment frames and mixed
systems. Just as importantly, the approach it allows for a natural transition between
current elastic analysis procedures and the future availability of second-order inelastic
analysis programs suitable for use with an advanced analysis-design approach.

Jean-Marc Franssen - Paulo Vila Real
Fire Design of Steel Structures: Eurocode 1: Actions on structures; Part 1-2: General actions - Actions on structures exposed to fire; Eurocode 3: EN 1991-2: General rules - Structural fire design
This book explains and illustrates the rules that are given in the Eurocode for designing steel structures subjected to fire. After the first introductory chapter, Chapter 2 explains how to calculate the mechanical actions (loads) in the fire situation based on the information given in EN 1990 and EN 1991.
Chapter 3 presents the models to be used to represent the thermal action created by the fire.
Chapter 4 describes the procedures to be used to calculate the temperature of the steelwork from the temperature of the compartment and Chapter 5 shows how the information given in EN 1993-1-2 is used to determine the loan bearing capacity of the steel structure.
The methods use to evaluate the fire resistance of bolted and welded connections are described in Chapter 7.
Chapter 8 describes a computer program called "Elefir-EN" which is based on the simple calculation model given in the Eurocode and allows designers to quickly and accurately calculate the performance of steel components in the fire situation.
Chapter 9 looks at the issues that a designer may be faced with when assessing the fire resistance of a complete building. This is done via a case study and addresses most of the concepts presented in the earlier Chapters.
The concepts and fire engineering procedures given in the Eurocodes may see complex those more familiar with the prescriptive approach. This publication sets out the design process in a logical manner giving practical and helpful advice and easy to follow worked examples that will allow designer to exploit the benefits of this new approach to fire design.

Fracture and fatigue of welded joints and structures
Author: Edited by Kenneth A. Macdonald | Size: 5.8 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Woodhead Publishing Limited | Year: 2011 | pages: 334 | ISBN: ISBN 978-1-84569-513-2
The failure of any welded joint is at best inconvenient and at worst can lead to catastrophic accidents. Fracture and fatigue of welded joints and structures analyzes the processes and causes of fracture and fatigue, focusing on how the failure of welded joints and structures can be predicted and minimized in the design process.
Part 1 concentrates on analyzing fracture of welded joints and structures, with chapters on constraint-based fracture mechanics for predicting joint failure, fracture assessment methods and the use of fracture mechanics in the fatigue analysis of welded joints. In part 2, the emphasis shifts to fatigue, and chapters focus on a variety of aspects of fatigue analysis including assessment of local stresses in welded joints, fatigue design rules for welded structures, k-nodes for offshore structures and modeling residual stresses in predicting the service life of structures.
