Understanding IT in Construction (Understanding Construction)

In recent years, Information Technology (IT) has been transforming business practice in many sectors resulting in efficiency gains and improved services for the client. The construction industry lags behind other manufacturing and service industries in adopting the new technology. To promote the wider use of IT in construction, it is essential to equip practitioners and graduates of construction related disciplines with knowledge of existing construction IT applications. This book provides an overview of a broad range of IT applications currently available for all stages throughout the life cycle of a building project, from essential office and information management through to computer-aided design (CAD), cost estimating, project planning and scheduling, and facilities management and building maintenance. It is an invaluable and handy reference for construction professionals and clients, as well as being a clear and comprehensive text for students studying construction, building or architectural courses.

Our lives can be filled with busyness and boredom, our thoughts miles from where we are physically. Our relationships can feel lonely and shallow—even our relationship with God.“Taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!” Psalm 34:8 With this invitation, Rob Howard shares his experience of learning and growing, and fighting for a face-to-face relationship with God. Through these Spiritual Exercises created to foster deep reflection, spend time in the Psalms learning to speak as honestly with God as David, vulnerably opening up the dark places in your life to allow God to fully know you and love you.
