Project Engineering

"This beginner-friendly book is a goldmine for anyone looking to harness the power of AI without coding." — Amazon Verified Review, US. Stop Playing With AI. Start Engineering Results. Most people use AI like a search engine with a personality. They type a question, get a generic answer, and wonder why it never quite does what they need. This is not that kind of book. AI Prompt Engineering is a hands-on workshop for consultants, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and business operators who need AI to produce reliable, professional-grade output — not just interesting responses. There is a ...

They told you the job was paperwork. It isn't. The project engineer is the quartermaster of the construction project — the role that resources the trade partners with the information and materials they need to plan, build, and finish their work. When the PE runs the role well, the whole project flows. When the PE does not, no schedule, no software, and no slogan can save it. Too many young engineers never learn the difference. Too many companies never teach it. In Elevating Construction Project Engineers, Jason Schroeder takes the most undervalued position on the commercial jobsite and ...

The most important role in construction — next to the foreman — is the field engineer. Not because of the title. Because of what they do. A great field engineer is the foreman's right hand — solving layout problems before they become rework, producing lift drawings before the placement, catching conflicts before the crew hits them. They make the foreman more effective. They make the work cleaner, faster, and right the first time. And then they grow up to become superintendents. Superintendents who still know how to support the foreman — because they spent years doing exactly that. ...

Getting to the good solutions of complex management challenges can make the difference between fulfillment and frustration for teams, and, ultimately, the success or failure of companies. Will Larson's An Elegant Puzzle orients around the particular challenges of engineering management - from sizing teams to technical debt to succession planning - and provides a path to the good solutions.

Construction projects don’t succeed because the drawings are perfect—they succeed because the supporting operations run smoothly. Scheduling, procurement, cost control, quality, safety, logistics, documentation, meetings, and closeout are the real drivers of performance on every jobsite. This practical, use-case–driven book is a complete field guide to the operational side of construction management. Instead of theory, you’ll find real workflows, real templates, real checklists, and real examples used every day by project engineers, superintendents, project managers, coordinators, ...

Every successful organization needs high-performance teams to compete and succeed. Yet, technical people are often resistant to traditional "touchy-feely" teambuilding. To improve communication, performance, and morale among NASA's technical teams, former NASA Astrophysicist Dr. Charlie Pellerin developed the teambuilding process described in "How NASA Builds Teams"—an approach that is proven, quantitative, and requires only a fraction of the time and resources of traditional training methods.

Her name is Eve14. She is the result of a 1000-year project by the robots of Earth to restore the planet after all life was wiped out in 2065. 27 robotic minds, copied from Earth's great scientists, carried on after the species died. They mixed and matched those minds in endless combinations, producing a whole race of machines with human personalities. Immortal, but with memories of sensations they can no longer experience, some renegade robots now have a daring agenda.

Brought to you by Penguin. Construction is the most important industry in the world. The homes we wake up to, the schools we raise our children in, the transport infrastructure we all use, the hospitals we rely on – all of it was built and enabled by construction. In Mega Builds, YouTube...

Every applicable government agency and almost all mainstream media outlets claim that chemtrails are merely a "conspiracy theory". They say that the lines in the sky are harmless condensation trails and that jet aircrafts have always produced emissions that can linger in the sky for hours as they spread out and form a hazy cloud-cover. They say that anybody who asserts that aircraft are routinely spraying us with toxic materials is crazy. If this is so, then why are we consistently seeing anomalously high levels of toxins in rainwater samples as well as in ambient air samples?

A lot of Engineering Managers and leaders studied for years and years to become the best Engineer they possibly could be... and then they were promoted. It can be very tough for those of us who didn't go into Engineering with the distinct concept that we would become managers, but still want to do our best to support our teams. I wrote this book because there's so much no one told me about management that I wished I would have known. There's a lot to be purposeful about that many of us learn on the job, and worse: learn on people.
