Earth has been used as a building material for centuries, providing local communities with a sustainable and durable material from which homes and other buildings are constructed. Earthen construction has developed over time to become one of the predominant building types worldwide, with many different examples of traditional and modern earth buildings across Africa, Asia, Australia, North America and Europe. This book critically reviews the development and application of earth materials, earth building design and earth construction techniques. The beginning reviews the overall status of earth construction as an option for low-impact and sustainable building design. This coverage is complemented by chapters on earth block building and rammed earth construction, structural reinforcement and internal and external earth building components. The final section reviews regional applications and case studies to highlight the use and utility of modern earthen building construction in different areas and different climates worldwide.

Use BIM to develop strategies, expedite projects, improve outcomes, and save money.
BIM is far more than an "upgrade" to the latest CAD software. It is a process improvement tool that leverages data to analyze and predict outcomes throughout the different phases of the building life cycle. The time for a building owner to get involved with the BIM process is not at the end of the building project but from the very beginning. BIM for Building Owners and Developers is the only guide that will help you, the owner and client, use BIM to increase transparency and create a more integrated design and construction process, which will result in better quality buildings at lower cost and in a shorter time frame. It will also help you understand what BIM can do for you and what you can expect in terms of process and commitments. You'll discover how BIM can help improve your strategic planning, maximize ROI, support the decision-making processes, and fine-tune GAP analysis.
In addition, BIM for Building Owners and Developers can help you:
Understand, manage, and take advantage of the BIM paradigm shift
Assemble a building as it would be constructed on site to help eliminate many inefficiencies of the construction process
Achieve a high level of coordination through better integration of information and process optimization
Reduce the overall cost of a project by identifying problems while they still can be corrected inexpensively
Make every project easier, faster, and more profitable with BIM for Building Owners and Developers.

I would be glad to hear someones experiences regarding the workshops they offer. They try to connect with my home university but I am not sure what steps to take regarding their offer.
Hope you are doing fine. It is my great pleasure to let you all know that I am going to start my PhD study at Australia. My field of interest and working will be climate change and water resources engineering area. I have already arrived over here.
I am lucky enough to be a proud member of this great forum. Here I learned a lot from different perspectives of Civil and Environmental Engineering from every corners of the world. I acknowledge all of your supports and encouragement. It is needless to mention here..............rather acknowledge it.
Today, I met my supervisor and talked to him. I am going to start my study with full swing from the next week onwards. I will be keep in touch with the forum as usual. I will try my level best to contribute within my capacity. I hope and strongly believe that i can get help and support from all of you guys as usual.
I expect all of your blessings, best wishes and encouragements at the eve of starting of this big journey of my life.
