Grose Michael: Construction Law in the
United Arab Emirates and the Gulf

Construction Law in the United Arab Emirates and the Gulf

Architects and designers have been endlessly fascinated and inspired by working with children and young people. The relationship between the designer and child is potentially a rich source of learning and development for both, leading to new thinking about the design of our built environments. This book will help practitioners and students to get the most out of their interactions with children in the design process. The book brings together the theory and practice of engaging children and young people with architecture and the built environment. Structured around a series of roles that a child/young person might play in the architectural design and build process, it helps readers gain a broad understanding of the principles underlying the field, but within a supportive framework for its application. Roles are as follows: Advocates for ChangeCreative InspirersResearchers(Co) DesignersTrailblazersBuildersClientsPlacemakersExpert Consultants Written specifically with a design audience in mind, it provides a range of inspiring examples of educational and participatory design projects from the UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Sweden, Iceland, Norway, Finland, Poland, Germany, France and Turkey. The book finishes with a 'how to' guide - for those who want to design their own participatory/educational design process. This will include diagrams and will cross-reference to the examples in previous chapters. However, the guide is specific without being prescriptive. It categorises stages and phases of involvement as well as the roles of participants, allowing readers to critically deliberate which approaches will be appropriate in which contexts. Beautifully illustrated and in full colour, this book will be essential to anyone involved in engaging children in built environment design and education projects - from architects and students of architecture to teachers, youth workers and professional facilitators.

Design of Ocean Structures: From Oil and Gas to Blue Economy offers specialized knowledge that serves to develop efficient, safe, and longlasting infrastructure systems for the transition to sustainable utilization of resources from the world’s oceans. The book's authors draw from their academic and industry experience to provide the most up-to-date, technical advances applied to the design, construction, and operation of farm-scale, bottom-fixed, or floating installations whose purposes include production of renewable energy, extraction of minerals, and open water aquaculture. Effective engineering methodologies accompany discussions of recent, interesting projects, challenges encountered, and other practical lessons learned through coherent case study examples. The book’s easy-to-follow organization concludes with a look at the effects of climate change on the ocean environment and future implications that may further affect design criteria and guidelines. This valuable reference volume is intended for audiences from a variety of engineering spheres who already have foundational understanding of structural design theory and practice and are hoping to transfer and adapt their underlying analytical skills to emerging blue economy sectors.

Geomechanics Research

This book provides a basis to interpret acoustic emission (AE) as damage processes in stressed rock, with applications to stress measurements, size effects, source mechanisms, and fracture mechanics. Basic features of an AE monitoring system will be covered, with some background on the sensor, pre-amplifier, and data acquisition. Several examples of AE monitoring will include both lab and field applications ranging from element testing to hydraulic fracturing. Intended for geologists, geophysicists and mining, petroleum and civil engineers dealing with rock stress and rock damage processes.

Rock stress and rock damaging are some of the main obstacles encountered when designing and constructing engineering projects with rock. This book will provide a basis to interpret acoustic emission (AE) as damage processes in stressed rock, with applications to stress measurements, size effects, source mechanisms, and fracture mechanics. The nature of rock will be described as a crystalline solid with voids in the form of small cracks and pores called damage, and AE will be explained as energy released as a result of increase in damage. Basic features of an AE monitoring system will be covered, with some background on the sensor, pre-amplifier, and data acquisition. Waveform analyses will include source locations through a geometric interpretation and a numerical algorithm, which will be available through the authors’ web sites. Fault plane solutions and moment tensor analysis will be presented for a quantitative evaluation of micromechanisms of rock failure under tension and shear. Several examples of AE monitoring will include both lab and field applications ranging from element testing to hydraulic fracturing. Intended for geologists, geophysicists and mining, petroleum and civil engineers dealing with rock stress and rock damage processes.

Design Research in Architecture

Perry Kulper and Nat Chard work with conditions of uncertainty, developing a contingent architecture that provokes and absorbs the unforeseen as well as the more predictable relationships into which architecture can enter. In mainstream practice and research there is an emphasis on achieving a certain outcome. Those who wish to have a building made make a prediction - what they want to take place - while the architect attempts to make that prediction come true. In Kulper and Chard's work the outcome is unknown- they have developed their own working and research practices to take this into account. In different ways, they both use the act of making drawings as a way of engaging with uncertain conditions and enrolling a range of incomplete relationships. By acting on these sorts of relations they are breaking new ground by taking up the unpredictable, a marginal area relative to the ordained territories claimed for architectural discussions. Without the need or desire for a single resolved project they work in parallel, Kulper in a basement in Ann Arbor, Michigan and Chard from his attic in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The work of one is contaminated by the arrival of a new drawing or reference from the other, while the reflection on the exchanged material comes from the other person's position rather than confirming an agreed target. This condition is heighted by an unspoken policy of exchanging work with very little commentary so that any disturbance provided by these reflections is sincere and without contrivance. While Kulper and Chard have established rigor in their respective research methods, their collaboration disrupts the stability that such discipline provides. It is a collaboration that provides the sort of disturbances that bring a helpful and real uncertainty to the process of design. Proposing architecture for uncertain conditions touches many paradoxes and the work plays with paradox to nurture uncertainty - as another source of disturbance. The work also

Contingent Practices

Let these cutting-edge tools revolutionize your architectural problem-solving Recent technological advances, including rapid development of high-performance computing power, have produced computational tools for architects and designers that are swiftly revolutionizing the field. Two of these tools, parametric analysis and generative design, can be used together to model complex problems and test solutions with extraordinary speed and efficiency. The next generation of architects and designers will bring these tools to bear in a transformed professional landscape. Parametric Analysis and Generative Design in Architectural Practice offers a detailed introduction to these tools and their applications. Balancing theory and practice, it is replete with useful examples and provides algorithms for three different architectural scales: urban design, building design, and interior design. A foundational discussion on machine learning in architectural practice is presented, along with examples of machine learning applications for energy analysis and solar analysis. It is a must-own for architects looking to leverage an unprecedented level of computational power. The book also includes: <ul> <li>Detailed guidelines for building performance simulation for energy analysis and daylight analysis</li> <li>Algorithms for scales from interiors to buildings to entire cityscapes</li> <li>Discussion of how to implement machine learning in order to solve complex problems</li> </ul> Parametric Analysis and Generative Design in Architectural Practice is ideal for professionals and students at every level looking to diversify their architectural toolkit.

Indigenous Peoples and the Law

Human Rights, the Rule of Law and Exploitation in the Postcolony: Blood Minerals examines how the legal frameworks of the global economy position the inhabitants of the postcolonial south in a legal and moral position that facilitates economic exploitation, juridical regulation, and dominion over land and resources. Drawing on several exemplary situations - from Africa (the DRC and Nigeria), Asia (India), the Pacific region (Papua New Guinea and Australia) and South America (Ecuador) - Blood Minerals describes how colonial rule operates in a violent and destructive cycle of mineral extraction. It shows how the populations of the postcolonial global south are stripped of juridical personality and become persona nullius, as the legal-economic frameworks of globalization enact colonial rule by declaring the lands that are to be exploited as void of law.

Human Rights, the Rule of Law and Exploitation in the Postcolony: Blood Minerals examines how the legal frameworks of the global economy position the inhabitants of the postcolonial south in a legal and moral position that facilitates economic exploitation, juridical regulation, and dominion over land and resources. The colonial moment witnessed the expropriation of lands through their declaration as terra nullius and the designation of the people inhabiting them as persona nullius. Drawing on several exemplary situations – from Africa (the DRC and Nigeria), Asia (India), the Pacific region (Papua New Guinea and Australia) and South America (Ecuador) – Blood Minerals describes how colonial rule operates in a violent and destructive cycle of mineral extraction. It shows how the populations of the postcolonial global south are stripped of juridical personality and become persona nullius, as the legal-economic frameworks of globalization enact colonial rule by declaring the lands that are to be exploited as void of law. It is the revival of this colonial trope in the so-called postcolony, the book argues, that legitimates the violent dispossession, displacement, and even the obliteration, of its inhabitants.
