Landscape Design

A title that addresses one of the central challenges of landscape design -- how to tackle representation.

Representation is a hot topic in landscape architecture. While computerization has been a catalyst for change across many fields in design, no other design field has experienced such drastic reinvention as has landscape architecture. As the world urbanizes rapidly and our relationship with nature changes, it is vitally important that landscape designers adopt innovative forms of representation--whether digital, analog, or hybrid.

In this book, author Diana Balmori explores notions of representation in the discipline at large and across time. She takes readers from landscape design's roots in seventeenth-century France and eighteenth-century England through to modern attempts at representation made by contemporary landscape artists.

• Addresses a central topic in the discipline of landscape architecture.

• Features historic works and those by leading contemporary practitioners, such as Bernard Lassus, Richard Haag, Stig L Andersson, Lawrence Halprin, and Patricia Johanson.

• The author is a renowned practitioner and educator, she teaches the subject at Yale.

Hydraulic Fracturing in Earth-rock Fill Dam

Jun-Jie Wang

978-1-118-72550-4 / 1-118-72550-6

272 pp. Pub: 13/03/14

Hydraulic / Water Engineering

Presents a systematic and comprehensive study of hydraulic fracturing, original in its concentration of core soil problems.

There have been a number of well-studied cases in which dams have failed or been damaged by concentrated leaks for no apparent cause. In some of these experiences, investigators concluded that differential settlement cracks were the probable causes, even though no cracks were seen on the surface. In these examples, it was not determined whether the crack was open before the reservoir filled or whether it might have opened afterward. In several unsolved problems on the safety of the earth-rock fill dam, the problem of hydraulic fracture in the soil core of the earth-rock fill dam is one that is widely paid attention by designers and researchers. Hydraulic fracturing is generally considered as a key cause which may induce the leakage of the dam during first filling.

• Presents a systematic and comprehensive study of hydraulic fracturing, original in its concentration of core soil problems.

• Focuses on the problem of hydraulic fracturing in earth-rock fill dams from three aspects; conditions and mechanisms of hydraulic fracturing, criterion of hydraulic fracturing, and numerical method on hydraulic fracturing.

• Examines advanced laboratory soil testing, application of numerical methods and field testing/monitoring, all needed for a better understanding of hydraulic fracturing in earth/rock fill dams.

• Provides an essential reference in an area of scarce research in this field, and the need in high earth dam construction in developing countries is pressing.

352 pp. Pub: 08/18/14


This new edition of the classic quantity surveying textbook retains its basic structure but has been thoroughly updated to reflect recent changes in the industry, especially in procurement.

Although over the last 20 years a number of new procurement methods have evolved and become adopted, the recession has seen many clients revert to established traditional methods of procurement so the fundamentals of cost planning still apply - and should not be ignored. This 9

th edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect changes

that have occurred in the UK construction industry in the past six years. Whilst retaining its core structure of the three-phase cost planning process originally developed by Ferry and Brandon, the text provides a thorough grounding in contemporary issues including procurement innovation, whole life cycle costing and modelling techniques.

Designed to support the core cost planning studies covered by students reading for degrees in quantity surveying and construction management, it provides a platform for understanding the fundamental importance of effective cost planning practice.

The principals of elemental cost planning are covered from both pre- and post- contract perspectives; the role of effective briefing and client/stakeholder engagement as best practice is also reinforced in this text.

• Addresses the Soft Landings Framework (a new govt. initiative, especially for schools) to make buildings perform radically better and much more sustainably. Puts focus on actual performance in use at brief stage, during design and construction, and especially before and after handover.

• Covers recent changes in procurement, especially under the NEC and PFI.

• Provides more on PPP and long-term maintenance issues.

• Offers an improved companion website with tutorial worksheets for lecturers and Interactive spreadsheets for students, e.g. development appraisal models; lifecycle costing models.

Construction law

There is no current book specifically devoted to design liability in construction, when the subject is of fundamental concern to most construction professionals. Although other texts cover a range of aspects of liability, only this title draws together all those matters that relate specifically to design. This new edition has been completely revised to address a number of factors which have come together creating a new range of design liability issues for the construction professional to face.

Liability for the design of a building or structure is of fundamental concern to construction professionals, design-build contractors, specialist sub-contractors, and lawyers. Although other texts cover a wide range of aspects of liability, only Cornes and Lupton's Design Liability in Construction draws together all those matters that relate specifically to design.

• Popularity of design & build procurement.

• Partnering arrangements and early contractor involvement.

• New standard forms of construction contract and appointment, and revisions to older forms.

• Technical innovations in construction.

• Collaborative working and BIM systems.

• Many well-publicised cases regarding design failures.

• Significant developments in the law of tort and professional liability.

Architects, engineers, contractors and lawyers, primarily for those in practice. Will also serve as a useful text for masters level courses in engineering, surveying and construction law.

Sarah Lupton has for the last 12 years combined practice with an academic post at the Welsh School of Architecture, where she is a Reader and directs the MA in Professional Studies. She also lectures and runs seminars for architects in a large number of RIBA regions, and has authored many books on practice-related matters. She is currently vice chairman of the Architects Registration Board, has been a member of a number of RIBA and construction industry committees, and is currently a member of the CIC Liability Panel and the RIBA President's Advisory Committee on Dispute Resolution.

Informs Facility Managers and about their legal responsibilities and helps them avoid unnecessary exposure to legal liability.

Facility management - as any profession encompassing multiple disciplines and integrating technology, people and physical space - is not only complicated but fraught with occasions to be exposed to various legal liabilities.

Successful facility managers need the ability to manage risk well. They must understand the various ways the built environment can malfunction, anticipate the most likely problems and protect the owner's interest in such a way that the building can be safe for occupants yet productive for business purposes. The FM must therefore know the major tenants of risk avoidance, including knowledge of possible legal obstacles.

Legal Concepts for Facility Managers informs facility managers of their legal responsibilities and helps them avoid unnecessary exposure to liability. Each major legal theory will be explained and illustrated with charts or case histories. Chapter learning outcomes and discussion questions will help students recall salient information and are also intended to be used as homework assignments or prompts for classroom discussions.

As with any legal textbook expressly written for professionals who are not in the practice of law, the objective of this book is to inform students about their legal responsibilities. This text is not intended for students preparing to practice the law. It can be used in any course teaching built environment professionals how to avoid unnecessary exposure to legal liability.

• First law textbook specifically for facility managers.

• Helps the FM avoid unnecessary exposure to legal liability.

• Each major legal theory explained and illustrated with case histories.

This research-based book will promote better understanding of adapting existing commercial buildings to maximise their sustainability. How to adapt existing building stock is a problem being addressed by local and state governments worldwide. In most developed countries we now spend more on building adaptation than on new construction and there is an urgent need for greater knowledge and awareness of what happens to commercial buildings over time.

Sustainable Building Adaptation is a significant contribution to understanding best practice in sustainable adaptations to existing commercial buildings by offering new knowledge-based theoretical and practical insights. Results clearly demonstrate that the new models can assist with informed decision-making in adaptation that challenges some of the prevailing solutions based on empirical approaches and which do not accommodate the sustainability dimension. The emphasis is on demonstrating how the new knowledge can be applied by practitioners to deliver professionally relevant outcomes. The book offers guidance towards a balanced approach that incorporates sustainable and optimal approaches for effective management of sustainable adaptation of existing commercial buildings.

• Explains theoretical framework of building adaptation and sustainability.

• Defines the research problem and provides hypotheses and conceptual models.

• Covers findings from three international studies, with both city-wide and individual building perspectives.
