Lee Sandra: Willis's Elements of
Quantity Surveying

Willis's Elements of Quantity Surveying

Designed for undergraduate students with no prior computational background, this comprehensive textbook systematically builds essential surveying skills through three structured parts. Part 1 establishes foundational competencies across 10 chapters, beginning with mathematical formulas, coordinate systems, and conversions before progressing to trigonometric angular computations. It covers practical field procedures like intersections, resections, and traversing for horizontal control establishment, followed by earthwork area calculations and circular curve computations for road/rail alignment. The section concludes with cadastral subdivision techniques, reinforced by Chapter 18’s consolidated formula repository and calculator application guide. Part 2 advances to intermediate concepts, addressing significant figures, error propagation, and extended curve designs incorporating superelevation (transition/composite/vertical curves). Geological strike/dip analysis and coordinate transformations are presented alongside detailed Transverse Mercator projection workflows with multi-parameter examples. Part 3 explores specialized topics including least squares adjustment of plane intersections, modern EDM positioning, survey line alignment, and inter-zone Mercator transformations. Featuring 22 chapters with over 500 diagrams, 120 interconnected equations, and 80 reference tables, the book emphasizes practical mastery through worked examples, chapter exercises with solutions, and real-world applications. The progressive structure scaffolds learning from basic arithmetic to advanced adjustments, while the consistent focus on computational precision prepares students for both field practice and further studies. Particular attention is given to visualizing mathematical concepts through surveying applications, with algorithmic approaches presented alongside traditional methods. Ideal for introductory through intermediate courses, this resource balances theoretical rigor with immediately applicable techniques, serving as both a classroom textbook and a lifelong professional reference.

Today, software applications make cost estimation and management easier than ever before, but the role played by a construction professional who undertakes financial control and performance of a project remains as crucial as ever. Digital Management of Construction Costs provides readers with a route to understand how technology is dynamically transforming the construction sector and informs them of digital-first practices that can lead to more accurate forecasting and budgeting during the planning process, benchmarking, and monitoring throughout the expected delivery timeline. Theoretical principles and methodological techniques are accompanied by applied investigations of cases where improved efficiencies brought about by the uptake of novel solutions have led to successful bids or project completion. Added value is also provided by findings of the literature review, a framework conceptualized within the context of digitalization, and a discussion on future directions and implications. Written by experts in academia who aim to foster further subject matter research by compiling a useful reference resource, this book proves to be beneficial to both early-career practitioners and professionals in a more advanced stage of their career who wish to keep abreast of the most recent developments in their field.

"The Map in the Machine&nbsp;deconstructs the spatial architecture of the new digital economy, uncovering its deeply geographical foundations. Synthesizing geographical political economy and critical approaches to information technology, Luis Alvarez Leon offers an original framework for understanding processes of location, valuation, and marketization across the variegated worlds of digital capitalism." —Jamie Peck, Professor of Geography, University of British Columbia "Despite the persistence of abstract, fluffy metaphors like the cloud and Ethernet,&nbsp;The Map in the Machine&nbsp;conclusively demonstrates that digital information is—and always has been—intimately intertwined with our physical and material world. This is a must-read book for anyone looking to understand the place-based underpinnings of digital capitalism." —Catherine D'Ignazio, Associate Professor and Director of the Data + Feminism Lab, MIT, and coauthor of&nbsp;Data Feminism

Digital technologies have changed how we shop, work, play, and communicate, reshaping our societies and economies. To understand digital capitalism, we need to grasp how advances in geospatial technologies underpin the construction, operation, and refinement of markets for digital goods and services. In The Map in the Machine, Luis F. Alvarez Leon examines these advances, from MapQuest and Google Maps to the rise of IP geolocation, ridesharing, and a new Earth Observation satellite ecosystem. He develops a geographical theory of digital capitalism centered on the processes of location, valuation, and marketization to provide a new vantage point from which to better understand, and intervene in, the dominant techno-economic paradigm of our time. By centering the spatiality of digital capitalism, Alvarez Leon shows how this system is the product not of seemingly intangible information clouds but rather of a vast array of technologies, practices, and infrastructures deeply rooted in place, mediated by geography, and open to contestation and change.

This Element explores the conditions under which corrupt politicians are reelected, focusing on court rulings on candidate malfeasance. It shows that low-income voters are responsive to such rulings but are only slightly more responsive to candidate attributes, party labels protect a candidate from corruption, and attributes have little effect.
