    Käesoleva lõputöö eesmärgiks oli lahendada äripindadega korterelamu ehituse organiseerimise plaan. Hoone kompleksi moodustavad tornid, mida ühendab kaks ühist maapealset korrust ning üks maa-alune parklakorrus. Töö käigus koostas autor ehituseelarve, kasutades projektis olevaid töömahte ja -liike. Ehitustööde kogumaksumuseks kujunes 19 305 998 eurot, millele lisandub käibemaks 20%. Kõige kallimaks tööde liigiks on ruumitarindid ja pinnakatted, mis moodustavad 28,14% kogu eelarvest. Hoone neto ruutmeetri maksumuseks on 1 410 eurot. Eelarve koostamise käigus leiti tööajanormide järgi ehitustööde kestvused ja brigaadi suurused. Neid kasutades on koostatud kalendergraafik. Plaanil on näidatud tööde kestvused ja seosed teiste tööliikidega. Ehitustööde algus oli 01.08.2022 ning lõpp kalendergraafiku kohaselt 14.06.2024. Maksimaalselt töötab ehitusobjektil samaaegselt 87 töölist. Lõputööga koostati ehitusplatsi üldplaan, kus on näidatud ehitusplatsi paiknemine, soojakute paiknemine, ajutised elektriliinid ning veevarustus trassid. Elektrienergia vajaduse arvutuste kohaselt paigaldatakse objektile 200 A kaitsmega peajaotuskilp. Veevajadus arvutuste kohaselt paigaldatakse objektile 32 mm läbimõõduga PE-100 veejaotustoru. Lisaks on plaanil näidatud laoplatsid, liikumisteed ning kauba mahalaadimisala. Kuna hoone kandekonstruktsioonid moodustavad raudbetoonelemendid ning paigaldus toimub ratastelt, on ehitusobjekt varustatud tornkraanaga. Tornkraanaks on valitud Comansa 2100 seeria kraana 21LC450, mille tööraadius on 60 meetrit. Ehitusplatsi üldplaanil on näidatud tornkraana paiknemine, tema tööraadiused ja ohutsoonid. Organiseerimisplaani juurde kuulus antud töös kaks tehnoloogiakaarti. Esimesena käsitleti raudbetoonelementide montaaži ning näitena on toodud kuuenda korruse elemendid. Esmalt kirjeldati erinevaid montaažitöid, seejärel kalkuleeritakse töömahtude järgi ajakulu ning leiti töödeks vajalikud masinad ja tööriistad. Terve korruse elementide paigaldamiseks kulub neljaliikmelisel brigaadil neli tööpäeva. Teine tehnoloogiakaart selgitas katusetöid. Esmalt kirjeldati töid, mida teostatakse ning seejärel leiti töömahtude järgi ajakulu. Ajakulule lisaks leiti töödeks vajalikud tööriistad ja masinad. Katuse töödeks kulub neljaliikmelisel brigaadil 21 tööpäeva. Tehnoloogilised kaardid, ehitusplatsi üldplaan ja kalendergraafik on toodud töö lõpus graafilises osas.The objective of this thesis was to prepare a plan for the organisation of construction works of an apartment building with commercial premises. The building to be built is located in the city block between Mustamäe, Linnu and Vesipapi streets in Kristiine, Tallinn. The building complex comprises an eight-storey tower block and a thirteen-storey tower block connected by two shared above-ground floors and one underground car park. Commercial premises are located on the first two floors, while the remaining floors are designated as residential premises. In the economic section, the author was tasked with outlining how the cost of the building was calculated and, on that basis, the total cost of constructing the building was determined to be 19,305,998 euros, plus VAT of 20%. The most expensive type of work is the construction of room structures and coatings, which make up 28.14% of the total budget. The net cost per square metre of the building is 1,410 euros. The author then prepared a calendar schedule that specifies the works to be carried out, their inter-linkages and the labour costs associated with each type of work. The construction works commenced on 1 August 2022 and are expected to be completed on 14 June 2024, according to the calendar schedule. The maximum number of workers simultaneously working on the construction site is 87. As part of the thesis, a master plan of the construction site was drawn up, indicating the layout of the construction site, the locations of portable cabins, temporary power lines and water mains. The traffic management plan, loading area, storage areas and danger zones all form key parts of the construction site master plan. The planning of the construction site also involved calculating the main fuse rating for construction as well as the diameter of the water distribution pipe. Given that lifting work is carried out with a Comansa 2100 series 21LC450 tower crane with a reach of 60 metres, the fuse size of the main switchboard was determined to be 200 A. After calculations, a diameter of 32 mm was chosen for the water distribution pipe. Two technology maps were prepared as part of the thesis. The first technology map concerns the assembly of reinforced concrete elements, with the elements of the sixth floor given as an example. First, different assembly works were described, followed by a calculation of the time required based on the volume of work and a determination of the machinery and tools necessary for carrying out the work. It takes four working days for a four-member team to install the elements of an entire floor. The second technology map described roofing works. The works to be carried out were described first and then the time required for said works was calculated based on the volume of work. In addition to calculating the time required for works, the tools and machinery necessary for carrying out the works were also determined. It takes 21 working days for a four-member team to complete the roofing works. The technology maps, master plan of the construction site and the calendar schedule are presented in the graphic section of the thesis. In the final section of the thesis, the author describes how the contracting method was chosen and how the main occupational and fire safety and environmental protection requirements are implemented on site

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
