Selecting Project Delivery Systems: Definitive Book on
Project Delivery
by DBIA

DESCRIPTION
This book defines several key project delivery terms and summarizes the results of
a national study comparing the cost, schedule, and quality attributes of 351 projects
delivered using the three predominant U.S. project delivery systems: design-build,
design-bid-build, and construction management at risk. The book then introduces a
framework for evaluating project delivery decisions and a method to select a
project delivery system for a specific owner and project. It also focuses the reader
on the four closely related topics of procurement, contracts, project team selection,
and facility programs. The book closes by sharing lessons learned and suggests
practices for achieving successful project results. A must-have publication for
owners, developers, and construction professionals.

BIM Handbook: A Guide to BIM for Owners, Managers,
Designers, Engineers & Contractors
by Chuck Eastman, Paulk Teicholz, Rafael Sacks, Kathleen Liston

DESCRIPTION
Discover BIM: A better way to build better buildings. Building Information Modeling (BIM)
is a new approach to design, con-struction, and facility management in which a digital
representation of the building process is used to facilitate the exchange and
interoperability of information in digital format. BIM is beginning to change the way
buildings look, the way they function, and the ways in which they are designed and
built. This book is an in-depth understanding of BIM technologies, the business and
organizational issues associated with its implementation, and the profound advantages
that effective use of BIM can provide to all members of a project team. The Handbook
Introduces Building Information Modeling and the technologies that support it; Reviews
BIM and its related technologies, in particular parametric and object-oriented modeling,
its potential benefits, its costs, and needed infrastructure; Explains how designing,
constructing, and operating buildings with BIM differs from pursuing the same activities
in the traditional way using drawings, whether paper or electronic; Discusses the
present and future influences of BIM on regulatory agencies; legal practice associated
with the building industry; and manufacturers of building products; Presents a rich set
of BIM case studies and describes various BIM tools and technologies and Shows
how specific disciplines—owners, designers, contractors, and fabricators—can
adopt and implement BIM in their companies Painting a colorful and thorough picture of
the state of the art in Building Information Modeling, the BIM Handbook guides readers
to successful implementations, helping them to avoid needless frustration and costs
and take full advantage of this paradigm-shifting approach to build better buildings, that
consume fewer materials, and require less time, labor, and capital resources.
