Perceptions Towards Non-Value-Adding Activities During The Construction Process

Adding Value to the Unified Process

Issues the tutorial will concentrate on •= The UP is “use-case driven.” Generalize this to “behavior driven.” For example, events can be more helpful than use cases when modeling a domain with no business or system boundaries . •= The UP is “architecture-centric.” Distinguish the many kinds of architecture needed (technicallyoriented, subject-based, logical, physical, etc.). •= Raise the status...

Adding Value in Construction Design Management by using Simulation Approach

construction and validation of the translation teacher competency test and the scale of students’ perceptions of translation teachers

the major purpose of this study was to develop the translation teacher competency test (ttct) and examine its construct and predictive validity. the present study was conducted in two phases: a qualitative phase as well as a quantitative phase. in the first phase of the study, the author attempted to find out the major areas of competency required for an academic translation teacher. the second...

consequence analysis of the leakage, ignition and explosion during high pressure sour gas injection process to the oil reservoir

there is no doubt that human being needs to become integrated with industry and industry needs to be progressed, daily. on the other hand, serious events in industrial units specially in oil industries has been shown that such damages and events are industry related ones. the consequence of such events and damages which resulted in chemical and poisoned explosions and loss of life and property ...

Silica dust exposures during selected construction activities.

This study characterized exposure for dust-producing construction tasks. Eight common construction tasks were evaluated for quartz and respirable dust exposure by collecting 113 personal task period samples for cleanup; demolition with handheld tools; concrete cutting; concrete mixing; tuck-point grinding; surface grinding; sacking and patching concrete; and concrete floor sanding using both ti...
