of view of mainstream practice as opposed to a cutting-edge technological perspective, it offers an easy-going yet thorough explanation of a subject which is often swamped by jargon and deluged with spin.
Taking a wide view of BIM –
encompassing business opportunity, code of conduct, cultural issues and the necessity for better legal arrangements too – the book’s chapters range from the BIM ingredients (including objects, parametrics, and standards), to the business case for BIM and how to implement it. BIM requires a shift in
attitudes if its benefits are to
be obtained – and this book will allow individuals at all levels in any practice to build a firmer understanding of the merits and wider application of the subject.
It aims to bring together
both managers and technologists within businesses throughout the AECC chain to form better and more valuable propositions for built environment interventions.

CESMM4: A raft of resources now available
The Civil Engineering Standard Method of measurement – CESMM – has been well established for over 20 years as the standard for the preparation of bills of quantities in civil engineering work. CESMM4 does not require any new learning or changes to business practices. This edition, which has been
updated to incorporate all the latest technologies and is contract neutral for the first time
— it can be used across contract suites including the NEC, FIDIC and ICC. This makes CESMM4 the most accessible and vital edition to date, essential for all civil engineering and construction projects across the world. Also just published this month
is the CESMM4: Handbook. Completely updated it now includes new text to bring it in line with the changes and new material contained within

CESMM4. The handbook explains the amendments which have been made to make CESMM4 contract neutral and inclusive of the latest technologies. The CESMM4: Handbook will indisputably remain the essential reference tool for all users of the CESMM and students of civil engineering and quantity surveying. To complement the new handbook is CESMM4: Examples,
a book which provides a comprehensive range of examples of diagrams and bills of quantities based on Section 8, works classification, of CESMM4. The example bill pages
illustrate the application of the rules of measurement in all classes of CESMM4. The diagrams include some helpful short cuts for engineers and surveyors preparing bills of quantities.
