Construction Vibration Damage Guide, Professional Edition(CVDG Pro)
The Construction Vibration Damage Guide, Professional Edition (CVDG Pro, ©Copyright 2013-2024 John M. Zeigler, new edition 3.2) is designed for use by consultants, expert witnesses, construction businesses, law firms, project sponsors, homeowners in or contemplating litigation and others who need comprehensive information and help to deal with construction vibration damage issues and claims. The Pro Edition also has substantial discussion of blasting environments and damage attributed to them. The text of the CVDG Pro Table of Contents
is reproduced at left, with added contents indicated in bold. The CVDG Pro is not available for free viewing online. The CVDG Pro e-book includes the content of the free CVDG for Homeowners, but has over three times as much content in its about 300 pages, illustrated with over 400 original color graphics and photos. Many important topics are only found in the CVDG Pro. The CVDG Pro's Cited Literature chapter provides a single, authoritative compilation of over 80 selected references to much of the most important scientific literature in the area of vibration effects on structures. Both the free and Pro versions of the CVDG are supplied as secured PDF files. The permissions for these files allow copying of short lengths of text, commenting, highlighting and printing; they do not allow extracting pages or modifying the text of the CVDG. The uses you may make of the CVDG Pro are indicated in more detail in the CVDG Pro License.
The information in the CVDG Pro can literally save you many thousands of dollars in attorney fees and expert witness costs, by helping you to understand and educate others on the science and issues of a vibration damage claim. It can help you, and your attorney, avoid many costly mistakes in handling a claim in, or about to be in, litigation. Consultants and expert witnesses will find it particularly valuable in becoming knowledgeable about a field which is growing rapidly in importance. Many downloaders of the free version of the CVDG have purchased the Pro version, because of its much more extensive coverage of vibration damage to homes and help with how to deal with it most easily. The CVDG Pro, like the free CVDG, is written largely in non-technical language. It has a Flesch-Kincaid grade level of 14, compared to that of the free version for homeowners of 12. Explanations of scientific terms and concepts are more extensive in the Pro version, with many additional technical topics covered and more references cited. The Professional version has in-depth coverage of vibration damage litigation-related issues, making it invaluable for those who have a claim in litigation and those who must deal with such claims. The CVDG Pro Edition e-book can be read with any device which can read PDF files, including computers, most e-readers and tablet-type computers (e.g. Kindle®, Nook®, iPad®). It embodies many special navigation tools to help the reader quickly find and read the pages of most immediate interest to him.
