Abstract

Long description: Kostenschätzungen für Projekte in der Prozessindustrie sind in den früheren Projektphasen des Anlagenbaus erforderlich, um in einem global agierenden Markt mit steigenden Rohstoffpreisen und wachsenden Engineering- und Montagekosten Wettbewerbsvorteile erzielen zu können. Das Buch gibt einen detaillierten Überblick über den Aufbau von Kostenschätzungen von Brownfield- und Greenfield-Anlagenprojekten und über die Vorgehensweise zur Erstellung der erforderlichen Begleitdokumente. Anhand eines Beispielprojektes wird eine Kostenschätzung mit unterschiedlichen Genauigkeiten vorgestellt. Im Anhang sind für die Kostenschätzungen Vorlagen sowie die Begleitdokumente zusammengestellt, die separat auch als Word- bzw. Excel-Datei beim Verlag (www.vogel-fachbuch.de) bestellt werden können: • Grundlagen der Kostenschätzungen • Kostenschätzungstypen, -klassen und -methoden • Planung (Engineering) • Equipment- und Materialeinkauf bzw. -beschaffung (Procurement) • Montage sowie Installation (Construction) • Template-Beispiele Long description: Das Buch gibt einen detaillierten Überblick über den Aufbau von Kostenschätzungen von Brownfield- und Greenfield-Anlagen und über die Vorgehensweise zur Erstellung der erforderlichen Begleitdokumente.

Abstract

This book contains practical, comprehensive, and effective guidance and advice on the issue of workplace violence. It is written in plain language and in a non-theoretical, reader-friendly format for quick and easy reference. Topics include the risk factors that contribute to workplace violence, as well as the effects of violence. The book discusses procedures for assessing threat as well as strategies for preventing violence and handling the consequences when necessary. It also examines situations such as domestic violence and the workplace and racial and sexual harassment and explains the new OSHA directive on investigation workplace violence.

Abstract

Aimed at students and instructors, alongside practitioners and researchers, in landscape architecture and its allied disciplinary fields, this book provides the reader with a clear framework of theoretical and practical considerations for interpreting and designing post-industrial landscapes. One of the biggest contemporary challenges currently faced in the profession is how to effectively understand and work with the transformational possibilities of post-industrial landscapes, while negotiating significant spatial challenges, such as degradation and fragmentation. Transformative Ground: A Field Guide to the Post-Industrial Landscape presents a range of theoretical perspectives and practical approaches, offering a broad scope of contemporary design strategies that deal with post-industrial landscapes. Through a series of thematic chapters, allied with precedents from leading design offices, this book identifies how the context of post-industrial landscapes has compelled shifts in fundamental ideas that underpin landscape design. As a richly illustrated account of this transformative ground, this book provides a must-have guide to help you reimagine the post-industrial landscape.

Abstract

People who work in an office spend at least a third of their lifetime in these spaces. The planning of office and administration buildings can therefore contribute a great deal to the satisfaction and well-being of future users. The book looks at the health-relevant factors that affect people in office and administration buildings and therefore deserve special attention in the planning process. In doing so, the authors are guided by a concept of health as defined by the World Health Organization: Accordingly, health encompasses mental as well as social and physical well-being and thus goes far beyond the factors laid down in legal norms and guidelines. In this volume, architects and designers, physicians and ergonomists deal with all aspects of interior design seen from a health perspective: What role does colour design play, what significance do light, air and noise have? What does a demand-oriented building technology look like and how is the office furniture adequately designed? Which medical and hygienic aspects have to be considered? How can offices be designed in terms of work-life balance and how will the office change in the course of digitalisation? The book serves as a guideline that can be applied chapter by chapter in the planning of health-promoting office spaces - depending on the interests of the reader. Problems that arise are discussed using examples, and checklists help you with planning and implementation. The guide is aimed at building owners, architects, engineers, but also at lawyers, psychologists and doctors as well as university members in the field of economics and engineering.

Abstract

This doctoral dissertation presents a model to evaluate trade-offs between the energetic, economic, and environmental lifecycle performance of building projects. The model is explained so as to be replicable. The model is then applied for decision-making on different strategies for existing buildings in Germany. Results from the case-study show that current state-of-the-art building strategies considerably increase the risk of missing climate change mitigation targets in exchange to a relatively small economic improvement over innovative building strategies.

Abstract

The main criteria for assessing the load-bearing behaviour and risk potential of monolithic glass are its fragmentation and the morphology of the fragments. These depend strongly non-linearly on the strain energy density present in the glass at the time of fracture, which can be converted into fracture energy. Thus, the design and optimization of structural glazing in engineering requires both knowledge of the relevant parameters and mechanisms during the fracture process in glass and an understanding of the characteristics of the fracture structure. Based on fracture mechanics considerations and comprehensive experimental investigations, various aspects and physical quantities of fracture behaviour as well as characteristics and parameters of fracture pattern morphology of fragmented, tempered soda-lime glass were studied and correlated with the stored strain energy. The relationship between fragmentation behavior and strain energy was elaborated using the energy criterion in Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) related to the initial strain energy before fragmentation and in the post-fracture state. Furthermore, a machine learning inspired approach for the prediction of 2D macro-scale fragmentation of tempered glass was developed and elaborated based on fracture mechanics considerations and statistical analysis of the fracture pattern morphology. A method was deduced and applied in which the fracture pattern of tempered glass is predicted and simulated by Voronoi tessellation of point patterns based on Bayesian spatial point statistics fed with energy conditions in LEFM. The Author Dr.-Ing. Navid Pour-Moghaddam studied Civil Engineering at the Technical University of Darmstadt. From 2011 to 2014 he was a project engineer at Werner Sobek Frankfurt with focus on structural engineering. Between 2014 and 2019 he earned his doctorate at the Institute of Structural Mechanics and Design (Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jens Schneider) in the field of glass construction. Since 2019 he has been working for Schüssler-Plan Frankfurt in the field of constructive engineering. He is a member of the Architects and Engineers Association of the City of Frankfurt.

Abstract

This book adopts a multidimensional approach to explain current practices and trends in facility management. Presenting both research and practical insights from around the globe and providing definitions, examples and case studies, it allows readers to gain an understanding of corporate real estate, as well as asset, property, and facility management in the context of digital transformation, sustainability practice and process optimisation. The authors also discuss the latest trends in workplace management, the use of emerging technologies to optimise provision of facility services, and change management to implement new processes and reporting. A good mix of theory and practice, including several examples, provide a constructive learning experience to the reader.
