    Content: AUTHOR-SUPPLIED ABSTRACT: Abstract: The world is at a tipping point, as population growth drives the economy and production ever higher, natural resources are on the edge of becoming obsolete. Research clearly shows how the construction industry generates severe damage to the environment, and how the generation of demolition waste is a source of wasted natural and economic resources. This study aims to unfold the current problem in the construction industry and offer an alternative to the way we currently design and build. The design aims to cover sustainability, flexibility, and circularity. We must rethink the way we use space and the resources that are located in it. Keywords: population growth, construction industry, sustainability, flexibility, circularity, natural resources, demolition waste, design, resource utilization

    kobvindex_INT70766
    Format: 1 online resource (225 pages)
    Edition: 1st ed.
    ISBN: 9781891853074 , 9781936331161
    Content: Many states within the U.S., and many countries across the world, are opening their electicity markets to competition. Many others are uncertain about their plans. These differences emphasize the complexities involved in the technology and regulatory structure of the electricity industry--an industry for which the introduction of market competition has been notoriously difficult. In response to these challenges, Alternating Currents provides a timely overview and analysis of the concerns facing industry regulators, legislators, and others as they consider whether, when, and how to open electricity markets. Authors Brennan, Palmer, and Martinez offer background on the history of regulatory policy and the technology for producing and delivering electric power. They then provide insights into the policy debates and economic issues involved in eleven important topics, including industry structure, system integrity and reliability, the mitigation of market power, and environmental protection. Alternating Currents describes the recent events leading to the demise of retail competition in California with the intent on drawing lessons for the future. In the end, the authors offer their perspective about what makes electricity a unique resource and how those factors make the potential conflict between competition and reliability the most pressing of the long-term concerns about the transformation of the electric power industry

    Series Statement: Studies in Architecture and Culture v.6
    Content: The Architectural Project considers the practice of architectural design as it has developed from the Renaissance into the Modern era. Here, CoronaMartínez emphasizes the distinction between an architectural project, created in the architect's mind and materialized as a set of drawings on paper, and the realized threedimensional building. Architectural schooling, he suggests, has had a decisive role in the transmission of these practices. He concludes that the methods formalized in Beaux Arts teaching are not only still with us but are in good part responsible for the stylistic instability that haunts Modern architecture
