Byggefag og brancher

En overlevelsesguide for håndværkere. Læs om Mikkel og Mads, der går så meget igennem. Du får historien om en lærlings og svends ubarmhjertige møde med en byggebranche som ikke interesserer sig særlig meget for trivsel, personalepleje og samarbejde. Historierne om Mikkel og Mads følges gennem alle bogens dele. På den måde guides du igennem alle de situationer, du kommer ud for som nystartet i en håndværkervirksomhed, hvad enten du er lærling eller svend. Der er alle mulige og umulige krav til at være håndværker. Alt fra faglighed til høflighed forventes af en håndværker. "Sådan overlever du byggebranchen" er din guide til alt det, du ikke får med dig i din uddannelse som lærling eller svend. Bogen giver dig ikke bare indsigt i, hvad der forlanges af dig, den giver dig konkrete råd og vejledninger i hvordan du bliver bedre til dit arbejde, hvordan du får større indflydelse på dit arbejde og hvordan du får talt om hvilke forventninger der er til dig.

This book highlights the design, use and structure of blockchain systems and decentralized ledger technologies (B/DLT) for use in the construction industry. Construction remains a fragmented change-resistant industry with chronic problems of underproductivity and a very low digitization factor compared to other fields. In parallel, the convergence, embedding and coordination of digital technologies in the physical world provides a unique opportunity for the construction industry to leap ahead and adopt fourth industrial revolution technologies. Within this context, B/DLT are an excellent fit for the digitization of the construction industry. B/DLT are effective in this as they organize and align digital and physical supply chains, produce stigmergic coordination out of decentralization, enable the governance of complex projects for multiple stakeholders, while enabling the creation of a new class of business models and legal instruments for construction.

This book introduces the research background and significance of carbon emissions in the tunnel industry and systematically reviewed the research progresses of carbon emission researches for tunnels, LCA (life cycle assessment) research framework, and uncertainty research progress. The authors propose a novel modular carbon emission calculation method for highway tunnel construction and expounds on the modular LCA system boundary theory of tunnel construction. This method does not require abundant knowledge of LCA modeling, which is convenient for general engineering and technical personnel to calculate the carbon emission level of tunnel construction. The calculation formulas for input and carbon emissions of each module are provided. It also analyzes the parameter uncertainty, model uncertainty, and scenario uncertainty of the carbon emissions from tunnel construction by the Monte Carlo method. Further, this book proposes the fitting model of carbon emissions of unit engineering quantity in tunnel construction, which benefits to simplify the calculation of carbon emissions.This book is mainly aimed at engineering and technical personnel in the construction industry, especially tunnel and underground engineering, including tunnel design engineers; tunnel construction engineers, experts, and scholars; tunnel owners; management departments.

This book presents the results of a novel investigation into building deterioration and defects in Malaysia's public schools. It sets forth an in-depth theoretical and empirical underpinning the maintenance management of public schools with the view to develop a building deterioration prediction model of building condition based on factors contributing to building defects for school buildings. The approach adopted is mixed method encompassing archived documentation, questionnaire survey and interview of sampled schools in Malaysia. It presents a number of useful tables, graphs and statistical analysis which are useful in understanding the factors contributing to building defects under reference. The prediction model assists the decision making of maintenance management to be more efficient with comprehensive budgeting as well as optimal maintenance and repair work. The book is of relevance to school managers, maintenance management practitioners and academics towards measuring and improving the building condition in schools.

This book significantly contributes the digital transformation of construction. The book explores the capabilities of deep learning to provide smart solutions for the construction industry, particularly in areas of managing equipment, design optimization, energy optimization and detect cracks for buildings and highways. It provides conceptual solutions but also practical techniques. A new deep learning CNN-based highway cracks detection is demonstrated, and its usefulness is tested. The resulting deep learning CNN model will enable users to scan long distance of highway and detect types of cracks accurately in a very short time compared to traditional approaches.The book explores the integration of IoT and blockchain to provide practical solutions to tackle existing challenges like the endemic fragmentation in supply chain, the need for monitoring construction projects remotely and tracking equipment on the site. The Blockchain of Things (BCoT) concept has been introduced to exploit the advantages of IoT and blockchain, and different applications were developed based on this integration in leading industries such as shared economy and health care. Workable potential use cases to exploit successful utilization of BCoT for the construction industry are explored in the book's chapters.This book will appeal to researchers in providing a comprehensive review of related literature on blockchain, the IoT and construction identify gaps and offer a springboard for future research. Construction practitioners, research and development institutes and policy makers will also benefit from its usefulness as a reference book and collection of case studies on the application of these new approaches in construction.

Estimating the cost of a project is critical to your business success. If done correctly, your company will be profitable. If done wrong, you'll lose money. Michael Stone, a successful construction business consultant and trainer, shares his years of hands-on experience estimating residential projects in this manual. When your estimated costs are reasonably accurate and you're using the correct markup for your business, you can be confident you're charging the right price for your work. The right price gives you the money you need to cover all job costs, overhead expenses, and make at least 8% net profit.If you're responsible for estimating remodeling or renovation projects, new homes, specialty work, or light commercial projects, this book is for you. You might be an estimator working for someone else or you might be the business owner who also does the sales and estimating for your business. The book is divided into multiple short chapters for easy reference. It discusses:methods of estimating details to tie down before you beginestimating laborlabor rates, how to calculate, and which one to useworking with other contractorsaccounting for errorsadjusting for difficultymaterial and installed allowancesand much moreEstimating isn't difficult when you have a system in place. The purpose of this book is to help you create that system. It's an approach to estimating that helps you estimate without having to think about the process. An orderly approach makes estimating easier and more accurate. Estimating is work. It requires dedication, focus, and practice to get it right. But it isn't as difficult when you have a system in place. The size of the project might vary, but the process doesn't change and this book is about learning the process.This book doesn't guarantee perfect estimates or a profit on the jobs you estimate. It's up to you to do the work. If you follow the principles outlined, the system you develop for estimating will improve the ease and accuracy of your estimates, and that will make your company more profitable.
