Fabricate 2024: Creating Resourceful Futures is the fifth volume in the series of Fabricate publications. The first conference – ‘Making Digital Architecture’ – explored the ways in which technology, design and industry are shaping the world around us. Since then, we have become finely attuned to the negative impacts of this shaping. The 2024 conference, hosted in Copenhagen, sets focus on the pressing need to develop new models for architectural production that rethink how resource is deployed, its intensity, its socio-ecological origins and sensitivity to environment. This book features the work of designers, engineers and makers operating within the built environment. It documents disruptive approaches that reconsider how fabrication can be leveraged to address our collective and entangled challenges of resource scarcity, climate emergency and burgeoning demand. Exploring case studies of completed buildings and works-in-progress, together with interviews with leading thinkers, this edition of Fabricate offers a plurality of tangible models for design and production that set a creative and responsible course towards resourceful futures.

The Government of India spends about 15% of India’s GDP, which translated into a whopping expenditure budget of Rs. 48.2 trillion for 2024-25, including Rs. 11.11 trillion on capital expenditures, another 11.6 trillion on interest payments, more than Rs. 4.2 trillion on subsidies like food and fertilisers, over Rs. 5 trillion on centrally sponsored programmes in the states and many other expenditures. The budget expenditures impact everyone, individuals, households, workers, businesses and everything we care about–growth, inflation, welfare and governance of the country. This book explains everything relating to the expenditures programmes of the government. The government’s tax proposals generate all-round interest. Companies worry about tax on their goods, profits, equities and bonds. Households and individuals look at the budget speech proposals how their salaries, savings and capital gains are going to be affected. The wider investment community wants to figure out the government's disinvestment, privatisation, dividends and other non-tax receipts. All the tax, non-tax, disinvestment and privatisation proposals and performance of the government have been thoroughly analysed and commented upon in the book. The economists, media, banks, foreign portfolio investors, investment managers, brokerages and everyone else with a direct or indirect stake in India’s economy, savings, credit, financial markets and any other macroeconomic aspect watch very carefully, in addition to expenditure and tax proposals, the proposals of the budgets impacting macroeconomy. This book presents an in-depth analysis of the macro-economic performance of the Indian economy and the implications of budget proposals. The book is organised in four parts and 40 chapters. The first part has all the big budget numbers with highlights, the second part brings out the results and outcomes of Budget 2022-23, the third part takes a serious look at the implementation of Budget 2023-24 and the fourth part critically analyses the implications of the proposals in Budget 2024-25 presented on 23 July. All the three budgets have also been rated on a sound framework taking into account 2022-23 actuals, 2023-24 revised estimates and 2024-25 budget estimates.

• Designed to teach intermediate users advanced topics and techniques • Covers sheet metal, surfacing, top-down design, parametric modeling, mold design, welded structures and more • Uses a task oriented approach to learning SOLIDWORKS • Includes access to video instruction • Covers commands found on the Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional Advanced and Expert Exams Beginner’s Guide to SOLIDWORKS 2024 – Level II starts where Beginner’s Guide – Level I ends, following the same easy to read style and companion video instruction, but this time covering advanced topics and techniques. The purpose of this book is to teach advanced techniques including sheet metal, surfacing, how to create components in the context of an assembly and reference other components (Top-down design), propagate design changes with SOLIDWORKS’ parametric capabilities, mold design, welded structures and more while explaining the basic concepts of each trade to allow you to understand the how and why of each operation. The author uses simple examples to allow you to better understand each command and environment, as well as to make it easier to explain the purpose of each step, maximizing the learning time by focusing on one task at a time. This book is focused on the processes to complete the modeling of a part, instead of focusing on individual software commands or operations, which are generally simple enough to learn. At the end of this book, you will have acquired enough skills to be highly competitive when it comes to designing with SOLIDWORKS, and while there are many less frequently used commands and options available that will not be covered in this book, rest assured that those covered are most of the commands used every day by SOLIDWORKS designers. The author strived hard to include many of the commands required in the Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional Advanced and Expert exams as listed on the SOLIDWORKS website. Includes Video Instruction Each copy of this book includes access to video instruction. In these videos the author provides a clear presentation of tutorials found in the book. The videos reinforce the steps described in the book by allowing you to watch the exact steps the author uses to complete the exercises while he provides additional details along the way. Captioned versions of these videos are also available for customers who want or need video captions.
