Isbn: 9798994685921 - site design & engineering: a guide for site development, construction plans preparation, and permitting (6 resultados)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. **SITE DESIGN & ENGINEERING** The second edition improves the first with expanded content and reorganized illustrations, enhancing clarity and making the reading experience fun and seamless. The Author aims to provide crucial guidance to various stakeholders involved in residential and commercial site development, including property owners, developers, architects, engineers, and contractors. The guide is to streamline the creation of effective construction plans while clarifying the permitting process to expedite approvals and promote sound engineering practices. The Author draws on over four decades of experience to address common queries arising during pre-application meetings and the review process. The book aims to clarify the diverse rules and requirements enforced by different agencies while empowering readers to communicate effectively and negotiate better outcomes. It serves as a resource for engineers, design practitioners, and students in civil engineering and construction. **How to Use This Book** The Author organized the book into ten structured chapters designed to guide readers through the site development process: The first chapter focuses on identifying an appropriate development property, emphasizing the importance of minimizing risk and ensuring profitability. This foundational step is crucial for the success of subsequent chapters. Chapters two and three delve into the essential data-collection processes, including surveys and geotechnical assessments. Readers learn how these critical components influence successful project design and construction. Chapter four provides an overview of design processes that complement the earlier chapters. It aims to foster an understanding of design elements and the most efficient design methods tailored to specific site conditions. Chapter five addresses necessary activities and definitions related to construction and non-construction within the right-of-way, stressing the importance of understanding the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for permitting purposes. Chapter six provides guidance for constructing single-family residential units and accessory dwelling units, detailing necessary steps for preparing construction plans and initiating the permit process amid a significant national housing shortage. Chapter seven presents a case study of a small residential subdivision, Project 1, highlighting the transformation from vacant land to completed construction plans. The chapter emphasizes practical examples of effective design and comprehensive construction planning for the entire project. Chapter eight is similar to Chapter 7, but it focuses on a larger residential subdivision consisting of nineteen lots. Each of these lots is significantly bigger than those in Project 1, presenting unique challenges that are reviewed and discussed in this chapter. Chapter nine focuses on the site improvements for a three-story chain hotel and a potential dine-in restaurant. While this project's stormwater management system shares similarities with previous projects, it is important to recognize the differences that are crucial to commercial sites. These include variations in parking lot design and additional facilities such as commercial swimming pools and spas. Chapter ten focuses on the processes and requirements of permitting agencies. Due to the differing provisions among these agencies, it can be challenging to cover all the requirements in detail. However, the chapter offers a general overview designed to help applicants set realistic expectations. The book intends to serve as both a refresher for practitioners and a valuable educational resource for students entering the fields of civil engineering and construction. It emphasizes the critical nature of understanding local Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
