This sixth edition of the well‐respected text on construction project management
represents a significant revision. The intent is to retain the flavor
and quality of the classic book while eliminating some of the detail and
updating the content. The content is enhanced by the addition of new
material introducing some rapidly evolving topics in construction project
management. New instructional materials have also been added to each
chapter to increase its value in the classroom. A new example project, selected
from the building sector, has been incorporated. Finally, this book
takes advantage of advances in technology by employing a companion
website that contains material that was appended at the end of the book or
inserted as oversized figures in previous editions.

The purpose of Design of Low-Rise Reinforced Concrete Buildings—based on
the 2009 IBC/ASCE/SEI 7-05/ACI 318-08 is to help engineers analyze, design
and detail low-rise cast-in-place conventionally reinforced concrete buildings in
accordance with the 2009 edition of the International Building Code® (IBC®).
Because the 2009 IBC references the 2008 edition of Building Code
Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI 318-08) and the 2005 edition of
ASCE/SEI 7, Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures, the
narrative and examples are based on these current standards wherever
applicable. Section numbers and equation numbers from the 2009 IBC, ACI 318-
08 and ASCE/SEI 7-05 that pertain to the specific requirements are provided
throughout the text.
Although the book is geared primarily for practicing structural engineers,
engineers studying for licensing exams, structural plan check engineers and civil
engineering students will find the book a valuable resource because of its
straightforward approach.
Chapter 2 summarizes floor systems commonly used in concrete buildings with
guidance on the advantages of various systems and practical framing layouts
and formwork. Information on the selection of economical floor systems for
various span and gravity load conditions is provided along with methods to
determine preliminary member sizes.

Some say Project can’t be used outside of a waterfall schedule approach, but it’s not true. In fact, most of the best methods use iterative activities, such as Scrum or agile planning.
In this seminar, we’ll show you key steps for building an agile schedule, as well as pros and cons of Scrum features and approaches.
You’ll also see how to blend a schedule to address tactical agile needs, while still providing rollup and time-boxed reporting to stakeholders.
This lively, example-driven webinar will reveal how you too can build agile, iterative schedules and address the need for a good time table that also helps map, track and report activities, features, story points and backlogs–all within Microsoft Project.
Have you ever wondered how to see tasks that are scheduled to take place next week across multiple projects? Would you like to know how to group task data using specific resource fields? What is the most effective way to plan projects with drop dead deadlines?
This session is designed to show you suggestions that you can apply to your schedules to enhance MS Project 2013/2016.
Primavera P6 Professional Project Management, the recognized standard for high-performance project management software, is designed to handle large-scale, highly sophisticated and multifaceted projects. It provides unlimited resources and an unlimited number of target plans.
The innovative and revolutionary new ETABS is the ultimate integrated software package for the structural analysis and design of buildings.
Incorporating 40 years of continuous research and development, this latest ETABS offers unmatched :
3D object based modeling and visualization tools,
Blazingly fast linear and nonlinear analytical power,
Sophisticated and comprehensive design capabilities for a wide-range of materials, and insightful graphic displays,
Reports, and schematic drawings that allow users to quickly and easily decipher and understand analysis and design results.
From the start of design conception through the production of schematic drawings, ETABS integrates every aspect of the engineering design process.
Creation of models has never been easier – intuitive drawing commands allow for the rapid generation of floor and elevation framing.
CAD drawings can be converted directly into ETABS models or used as templates onto which ETABS objects may be overlaid.
The state-of-the-art SAPFire 64-bit solver allows extremely large and complex models to be rapidly analyzed,and supports nonlinear modeling techniques such as construction sequencing and time effects (e.g., creep and shrinkage).
Work on a new €1.7 billion coastal road is underway around France’s Reunion Island
This new 12.3km highway (Route du Littoral) will have three lanes in each direction when it is complete in 2018.
The new offshore highway connects Saint Denis, the administrative capital of La Réunion, with La Possession.
This is a significant project and involves the use of a large fleet of heavy machinery.
Manitowoc, Grove and Potain cranes are working together to help build the new coastal road around Reunion Island.
In all large 16 cranes of various types are being used on the island, which is located to the east of Madagascar.
Meanwhile equipment from Enerpac is playing a key role in constructing a viaduct.
One of the most complex aspects of the work is the construction of the 5.4km viaduct on columns rising out from the Indian Ocean.
This is being built so that it will be able to withstand 144km/h hurricane winds as well as waves of up to 10m in height.
The project is being carried out by French consortium Bouygues Travaux Publics, VINCI Construction Grands Projets, Dodin Campenon Bernard and Demathieu Bard Construction.
Once complete, this will be the most expensive road/km funded by France.
The crane fleet in use on the project comprises two Potain MD 485B M20s, two MDT 368 As, one MD 560 B, a Potain k5-50C, a Manitowoc 12000E-1 crawler crane, seven
Grove all-terrain cranes and two Grove rough-terrain cranes. Installation of the Potain cranes was completed in September of 2015, including setting up and erecting the jibs.
The 16 cranes were supplied by contractors Vinci Construction Grands Projets and Bouygues TP which own some of the units and Grues Levages Investissements (GLI) which also provided cranes for this high-profile project on rental contracts.
GLI is Manitowoc’s official French dealer for Reunion Island, Mayotte and Mauritius and has invested heavily in supplying the cranes for this project.
