PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION The first edition of this book was well received by many within the industry, including contractors and also proved very useful to students and newly-qualified graduates. However the construction industry has moved on and this second edition will help to keep pace with that advance. Two new chapters dealing with the topics of glass and occupational health have been added. In addition a section has been added covering the management of demolition projects. All other chapters have been reviewed and revised to differing extents, as appropriate. I am grateful to former and new authors for their work and also to Dr Keith Whittles and Linsey Gullon at Whittles Publishing for their encouragement in bringing this book to press. Our industry is at the forefront of redevelopment and can boast of some spectacular achievements. However a recent report that 30 of contracts require remedial wok before contract completion suggests there is room for improvement. I therefore commend this book to practitioners and others as an aid in their struggle to achieve better standards. FOREWORD David Doran and I were longstanding colleagues, enjoying extensive and successful careers within the International Construction Company, George Wimpey plc. I was, therefore, familiar with the early prototype of the Site Engineers Manual introduced into GW plc and witnessed the positive reaction from engineers at all levels within the company to what became an essential aide-memoire and reference book for a typical site engineer. Therefore, when David asked me if I would write the Foreword for his updated and modern version, I readily agreed. The role and responsibilities of the site engineer are, as in all professions, ever changing: today’s engineer needs to be IT literate, to understand the interdependency of other professions within the built environment, and to keep his or her competencies up to date and relevant.
The concept of lifelong learning is real and I believe essential to today’s successful engineer. The production of this manual draws on the essential procedures and advice necessary for the successful execution of projects, both large and small, and is wide ranging in its reference. Its contributors are expert in their respective fi elds, their knowledge honed by both academic and practical experience, is written in plain English and is pragmatic in its advice. As a clear book of reference, an aide-memoire to necessary procedure, it is, in my opinion, a must have for every engineer’s desk or pocket and I am delighted to commend it to you.

The book remains a compendium of valuable practical engineering experience contributing to good working practice. All stages of construction are covered from receipt of materials to completion of the finished project. The construction sequence from setting out and excavation to erection and final completion is followed and important aspects of planning, health, safety and quality are explained. The book is packed with useful information, guidance, checklists and leads on topics from construction plant, setting out and earthworks to masonry, steelwork and timber - not forgetting the weather. It provides the ideal first reference on the subject for students and young engineers in civil engineering and construction. Building Engineer 'Given the breadth of civil and structural engineering, the second edition of the Site Engineers Manual is undoubtedly a great success in providing a 'one stop information shop' for site engineers..is a rich and compact source of vital references..is a main key piece in the jigsaw for graduate engineers..the manual is an outstanding guide for all engineers working on sites, whether graduate or experienced, design or construction, local or international'. Civil Engineering Reviews of the first edition: '.a substantial reference work. A mine of useful information.Building Engineer 'Manuals such as this one are much needed and this one is commended for site engineers'. The Structural Engineer '.a lovely Manual for all Resident Engineers.Site Recorder '.Where the book really excels is in being a first port of call for an engineer.'.

Therefore, when David asked me if I would write the Foreword for his updated and modern version, I readily agreed. The role and responsibilities of the site engineer are, as in all professions, ever changing: today’s engineer needs to be IT literate, to understand the interdepend- ency of other professions within the built environment, and to keep his or her competencies up to date and relevant. The concept of lifelong learning is real and I believe essential to today’s successful engineer. The production of this manual draws on the essential procedures and advice necessary for the successful execution of projects, both large and small, and is wide ranging in its reference.

As a clear book of reference, an aide-memoire to necessary procedure, it is, in my opinion, a must have for every engineer’s desk or pocket and I am delighted to commend it to you. As part of a Group initiative to improve quality I pioneered the introduction of a Company Construction Manual. This was an A4 loose leaf volume and was distributed to all construction sites. Site Agents found it helpful and young trainees were known to take a copy home with them in the evening for further study. In 1987 the style of the publica- tion was changed to a bound book that could slip easily into the pocket of an engi- neer’s donkey jacket. Four editions were produced in this format, the last in 1995.
This format has been adopted and expanded in what is essentially a 5th edition. This new edition makes the work available to the whole of the construction industry. Site engineers operate in an increasingly technological and legalistic environ- ment. It is hoped that this book will provide them with a road map to guide them through that complex journey. Although this book is essentially for site engineers, some basic design information has been included where appropriate. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all my erstwhile Wimpey colleagues for their help in launching this project and also to express my appreciation to those whose expertise has enhanced the quality of this latest edition. In particular I would like to thank my publisher Dr Keith Whittles and Bill Black (Drivers Jonas) for their helpful comments which have added value to this book. David Doran, Editor. Note 1.

It examines the consequences of each and their interconnections.
It presents general essays on Europe as a whole, on labor unions and on a variety of case studies including Spain, Portugal and the Netherlands. Its central argument is that the European economy should be reformed but that it should retain many of its managed aspects and be wary of modeling itself on the United States. The book contributes to the literature on European politics, political economy, and comparative public policy. You can find AUDIO Books in mp3 formats.
