Building Information Modeling
"Many researchers and software developers have put a lot of effort into finding solutions for automated code checking. This book is a good summary of these efforts and provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of the status of such technologies in the industry. It also guides readers on implementation of such techniques using the platforms and tools currently available in the industry." — Issa Ramaji, University of North Florida, USA Building Information Modeling: Automated Code Checking and Compliance Processes covers current and emerging trends in automating the processes of examining building design against codes and standards of practice. The role of Building Information Mode...
Building Information Modeling
This book focuses on how engineers and architects can benefit from new frameworks and technologies by reviewing the building information management (BIM) concept, discussing how BIM will affect education and practice, evaluating current BIM technology, exploring critical issues for best practices in BIM environments, and reviewing fundamentals of architectural and structural analysis under the new framework. The book provides professionals and students with the necessary knowledge and tools to assist them in understanding architectural structures and utilizing BIM to offer practical design solutions.
New Approaches for Sustainable & Resilient Processes and Products of Social Housing Development in the Arabian Gulf Countries
Social housing has been a forefront research topic especially from its economic and socio-cultural factors. The nature of social housing in the Arabian Gulf Countries has been distinctive in its approach with usually generous areas and urban sprawl designs. Recently, most of these Arabian Gulf Countries have gone through profound transformation in their social and housing paradigms influenced by their sustainability adopted agendas. Still, scholarly documentation and analysis of the processes and products of these transformed paradigms are largely missing, or at least fragmented. So, there is a desperate need to boost research work in this field as related to each city/country in this region, with largely expected mutual effects that these experiences might have on each other and on the global debate about sustainable and resilient social housing as a whole.

Advances in Informatics and Computing in Civil and Construction Engineering
This proceedings volume chronicles the papers presented at the 35th CIB W78 2018 Conference: IT in Design, Construction, and Management, held in Chicago, IL, USA, in October 2018. The theme of the conference focused on fostering, encouraging, and promoting research and development in the application of integrated information technology (IT) throughout the life-cycle of the design, construction, and occupancy of buildings and related facilities. The CIB – International Council for Research and Innovation in Building Construction – was established in 1953 as an association whose objectives were to stimulate and facilitate international cooperation and information exchange between governmental research institutes in the building and construction sector, with an emphasis on those institutes engaged in technical fields of research. The conference brought together more than 200 scholars from 40 countries, who presented the innovative concepts and methods featured in this collection of papers.

Building Structures
This book introduces young architects, engineers and builders to the fundamental concepts of building structures. It seeks to develop proper understanding and interpretation of structural behavior and concepts within various architectural expressions, which is accomplished using clear 3D illustrations, photographs and graphical details.
Analyzing Building Structures
Analyzing Building Structures provides critical exercises to help students understand the fundamentals of building structures and how to design structures that will withstand forces such as self-weight, live loads, wind, and seismic forces. The book also provides comprehensive solution techniques and necessary vocabulary to help students and professionals in architecture, building construction, and civil engineering gain a deeper understanding of the structural principles and analytical methods of building design. This book has been written to help readers learn about the fundamentals of building structures by involving them in the kinds of work that design professionals--architects, enginee...
