The new revolutionary concept of Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility
The new revolutionary concept of Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility
Building Information Modeling is not a new concept in the AEC industry. In May 2011, the UK government released a futuristic construction strategy for a reduction in the cost of public sector assets. This strategy mandated construction vendors applying for government tenders to achieve BIM Level 2 to be considered. The strategy also pushed for the phased roll-out of BIM Level 3 on all centrally-procured projects by 2016.
We are going to present information on the following topics relating to Air Tightness Testing.
What is Air Leakage –The common Air Leakage Paths - General Principles & the Air Line - Building Tight – Walls, Dry Lining & Ceilings - Harron Homes some specific detail - ATTMA Competent persons Scheme & Certificate Lodgement - Temporary Sealing - Checklist
The objective of this presentation is to provide you with an overview on what is Air Leakage / Air Tightness Testing, what the general principles are when it comes to achieving the required levels of Air Tightness for compliance with the Building Regs.
We also provide some guidelines on how you can achieve it.
We outline the changes to Air Tightness testing with the introduction of the ATTMA Competent persons scheme & Certificate Lodgement, along with what is and what isn’t acceptable regarding temporary sealing.
Contracts provide a legally-enforceable framework for guiding any and every type of business relationship, from employment agreements to orders for parts and supplies. While these agreements are key to guiding business relationships and ventures across all sectors, getting contracts right is especially important within construction, where the ability to complete a build on time, on budget and to code hinges upon all vendor arrangements going as expected. From the builder’s perspective, contracts are also important for preventing scope creep and to reducing the risk of cost overruns they may unexpectedly have to absorb.
Construction management contracts encompass the work and/or materials required for a building project. Typically, they will address:
1)Project/deliverable specifications
2)Labor and material requirements
3)Timelines for completion/delivery
4)Compensation formula and amounts
While construction management agreements will typically include the above, they can be structured differently, with numerous types of contracts that are designed to best meet the needs of all parties under all sorts of different scenarios. Familiarizing yourself with the types of contracts that are typically in play within building projects is an important first step to optimizing all contract-related processes within construction management.
What does BIM mean for Civil Engineers?Chun Keung Ng
BIM is a norm for the building industry. How about for infrastructures? Some countries are over confident on the implementation of BIM in both building and civil engineering industries. Is the BIM technology for infrastructures mature and easily available? Are the professionals ready for BIM?
MEP, the ever-expanding part of the construction, plays a vital role in the functioning of a building. An MEP system enables the flow of electricity, water, and air in a building. To know more about MEPF systems and how it boosts the construction workflow, refer the presentation below.
For civil engineer quantity surveying and estimation costing is very important for any project.
In this presentation we study about the Important terms used in estimation and costing, contingencies, work charge establishment, tools and plants, etc. types of estimates and their functions.
Building information modelling (BIM) is a process involving the generation and management of digital representations of physical and functional characteristics of places. Building information models (BIMs) are files (often but not always in proprietary formats and containing proprietary data) which can be extracted, exchanged or networked to support decision-making regarding a building or other built asset.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

You could be a professional graphic designer and still make mistakes. There is always the possibility of human error. On the other hand if you’re not a designer, the chances of making some common graphic design mistakes are even higher. Because you don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where this blog comes in. To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
