With pollution levels rising around the world, we’re developing alternatives to traditional energy sources more and more each year. Here’s a rundown of the emerging technologies that allow us to bring electricity and resources to our households in the most environmentally friendly ways.
随着人们对电力的替代和清洁能源的发展，我们正在调查的可能性。下面是在风力发电技术的最新进展11。
The fifth and final article in Buildipedia’s series on the Riverside Museum takes a look at some of the less visible aspects of this spectacular building: the HVAC system, acoustic engineering, and more.
“Complex geometry” is a phrase that successfully sums up Zaha Hadid’s Riverside Museum of Transport and Travel in Glasgow, Scotland – particularly its roof plane. According to Rod Manson, partner and engineer with Buro Happold, “The roof was commonly referred to as the ‘fifth elevation’ on the project.” Its zigzag form, coupled with the vast size of the exhibition space beneath, created several challenges for the engineers tasked with integrating the building systems while ensuring a streamlined look, both inside and out. “It was very important to the architect that the MEP systems be invisible and blend in with the overall building form,” explains Manson. He shared a few of Buro Happold’s clever solutions.
Architects, engineers, and contractors streamline their process to ensure a quick delivery of the Nebraska Cornhuskers’ new home, Pinnacle Bank Arena.
Along the western edge of downtown Lincoln, Nebraska, lies the historic Haymarket District. An industrial and commercial area in use since the 1870s, the district had nevertheless become blighted and run-down. In the 1980s, the Haymarket District began to attract some mixed-use development, including art galleries, coffee houses, and residences. In more recent years, rehabilitation efforts have extended westward, and an official redevelopment plan was established.
测量是为了提高自己在做什么的最好方法。。这样做是正确的把戏
基准是测量的一种形式 - 在你测量的其他人看到你在哪里滞后，识别领域并采取纠正措施。这是标杆的精髓。合并这是您的健康检查的一部分，正如前面所讨论的。
我最近的土木工程师和其他土地开发专业人员主动提出意见的位很简单：去在雨中比赛。或者，如果你觉得你已经变得太旧（永远！）在雨中玩耍，至少走出去，看着它。典型的人类倾向留在下雨时里面，走出去检查你的建议，正在进行或已完成建设项目的网站上是可能的，你想要做的最后一件事，但它可以是一个巨大的学习经验。
A challenge of mining operations and any project that disturbs large volumes of earth below grade is the potential to generate contaminated water runoff at the surface known as acid mine drainage (AMD). Precious metal and coal mine shafts traditionally require excavation below the water table, exposing metal sulfides in the disturbed earth and waste soils to the atmosphere and water. Similar exposure can occur during major highway construction projects. Stormwater runoff and water discharged from dewatering pumps related to these construction activities can be very low in pH (acidic) and can contain harmful metal ions. Eric McCleary of Greenhorne & O’Mara helped develop the successive alkalinity-producing system (SAPS) process to treat this AMD water and shares insights regarding this innovative technology with the Buildipedia audience. 在马塞勒斯页岩，地下岩层延伸到10种东部和阿巴拉契亚状态以及加拿大，很可能成为试验场水力压裂，钻探天然气的日益有争议的方法，与目前宾夕法尼亚此争议的闪点。 砌石拱形成大量历史建筑的一部分 - 宗教建筑，桥梁，人行道，和沟渠。虽然固体结构都参与其中，轴承负载，使用和偶然因素的环境和历史条件可引起它们的塌陷，与建筑遗产随之损失。工业工程师Leire迪亚博士研究的创新系统，这些砖石拱的康复，这是微创比目前的方法更易于管理。她的欧洲的博士论文，在 TECNALIA 建设单位，并在提交的巴斯克（UPV / EHU）大学题为砖石拱康复由兼容和微创强化系统。 Defining what a real partnership is can be tricky. Join us as we analyze Michel Theriault's Outsourcing Partnerships to find out how it's done and what the benefits might be. Many outsourcing deals are called "outsourcing partnerships," but is the partnership a reality or an illusion? The word partnership is used by both clients and service providers, so it’s easy to believe that these outsourcing deals are about partnership.

Information on low-flow plumbing fixtures abounds, and low-flow and waterless urinals are now in widespread use. Flush volume for toilets has evolved to 1.6 gallons per flush, or less than half of the 1980s' standard of 3.5 gallons. The fact that low-flow fixtures can save money in utility costs is clear and easy to calculate with a review of a water bill and an estimate of each fixture’s cycles per month. An enticing payback period for a new fixture purchase can be calculated based on water use alone. However, some facility managers argue that the utility savings offered by these plumbing fixtures are not matched by the unforeseen maintenance and repair costs that they generate. The question of whether low-flow plumbing fixtures offer a good return on investment (ROI) arises.
更多房主选择打造绿色，却怎么也房主可以放心的最终产品的质量？一个最好的办法是从第三方评级体系获得认证。最流行的两个是为家庭和国家绿色建筑标准LEED 。尽管十分类似，这两个系统有一些显著差异。

Through January 14, 2011, the USGBC will collect these comments, then review them, revise the LEED 2012 updates, and initiate a second round of public comments from July 1, 2011 through August 15, 2011. Balloting by USGBC members for LEED 2012 is scheduled for August 2012, with LEED 2012 set for release on November 7, 2012. 当描述能源与环境设计（LEED) for 2009, the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) uses the word “harmonization.” According to Marie Coleman, a Communication Associate with the USGBC, this refers to the fact that all LEED commercial rating systems are now aligned on a 100 point scale.
有关十余年现在美国绿色建筑委员会（USGBC）已改变我们通过其在能源与环境设计（LEED）评级系统领导建立的方式。这种转变是由地方，州和联邦政府，以及机构驱动。然而，在过去的两年里，私人LEED项目越来越多;这一趋势引发了人们对LEED认证的投资回报（ROI）的返回利息。
The U.S. Green Building Council’s (USGBC's) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program is the nation’s leading standards-based green building program. In 2009 the USGBC released its most recent version of the rating system and embarked upon its latest stage of development.
