Unit 5 P1

The construction industry has been around since the beginning of civilization and since that time people have continually tried to find better ways to build. The speed with which the construction industry moves is unlike any other. Things are done very differently than they were 20 years ago, and things will likely be done in a new way 10 years from now. The vast history and seemingly exponential growth of the industry means people must find innovative ways to gain an advantage. Drone technology has expanded in recent years from military innovations to civilian applications, and while it may not appear personal drones provide much benefit to the construction industry, their limitless applications yield innumerous opportunities on a jobsite. This paper explores some of the many uses a drone can have to advance the construction industry, as well as the liabilities which also come with this new technology. This paper will focus on the areas of efficiency, safety and security; how drone uses can make jobsites run smoother and safer, while also recognizing how drones will add the long list of concerns contractors face on a daily basis.

Further one this assignment will continue on the infrastructure of the economy which supports construction, this will include told, power tools, transport for materials and any objects used in order to complete a construction project which has to be order, rented or a special efforts made n order to allow for these certain services.

First, he thought of the purpose of the design. Was it for a certain company or group, or was it to express something. He had to be creative and include many perspectives in a usually simple design. He also had to make the design interesting to gain it more exposure. He needs to think of what community or demographic will be viewing the design, and fit it to that demographic.

The job/position of the Construction Mechanic or (CM) for short is a job rating within The Department of the Navy. A rating is a general occupation that specifies certain skills and abilities. In order to qualify for this particular job a person must sign an enlistment under contract for a minimum of five years into the United States Navy. The word enlistment refers generally to the obligation a person has to the branch he or she serves within the military.

They perceived social attributes of the architectural features as important. The appropriate alterations for building front (e.g., entrance and porch), height and scale were to solidify community’s demographic character and strengthen their social bond and diversity. However, this study illustrated that a controversy can arise in the pursuit of social bond and diversity. For instance, the desire for protection of the existing residents from gentrification conflicted with the desire for social diversity (i.e. building height and scale) in this study. Furthermore, participants evaluated an acceptable change depending on how the original features were, on how they had been modified and how they have been currently serving a social function. (i.e., building entrances and porches). The affordability and practicality of the features were also important issues. Wealthy Heights was historically a working class neighborhood. Many low income families still live in this district to this day. Such a recognition seems associated with the issues and influential to the importance and/or acceptable treatments for the materials. Interestingly, these concerns resulted in participants’ interest in construction materials and technology for a green

“Community architecture means that the person who inhabits it are involved in and may even be instigators of, its creation and its management as well. The inhabitants are the clients; and the architect works for, or at least with them--in contrast to the typical situation where architects and user never meet.” () The ‘ community architecture’ was the newly invented notion that user participation in the environment is more important than any of another architectural concept, especially in contrast to ‘conventional architecture’. The reasons of that could be limited resources, materials and financial.

The design focuses on dealing with different groups in the city, heir-changing forms in spatial organization, the positive and negative impacts on the urban environment, and the pressures that exist to force fans especially the foreigner to deal with new locations. Those emphases on dealing with site condition throw architectural design Fig. 22.

Design is one of the biggest challenges in any project. From the early sketches to over-the-counter permits, we run every aspect of the design so that you can relax. We consult with each client about their exact needs and aesthetic desires. From functionality to efficiency, our goal is to create the best collaborative designs possible. While tweaks to

The issues to resolve and is shaping residential buildings, which is affected by many factors related to climatic, socio-demographic, urban and other objective and subjective.

Urban Design means many things to different people, consequently the term is often misunderstood, and greatly misused. Urban design may loose some of it’s ambivalence if considered as a process to accomodate a changing environment. This process which emphasizes design possibilities rather than design finalities develops from consideration of long range needs and goals and the city’s character. The ends (the built enviroment) develop from the means, the cities decision making process. The city regulates and approves development, suggests development scenerioes, and various guidelines. By going through this process the character of the city is identified.

Please discuss any other development standards that apply to the appearance of the building itself.

Architecture is a way of expressing one’s vision to improve their daily lives. Correspondingly, the urban plan effect how society go about their lives and interact with each other. The manner in which the town is planned gives an idea the motivation and values of the town.

This quote rings true evermore in the construction of buildings throughout history; the overarching principle being that value for money is achieved in terms of the quality, cost, time and buildability of the project.(1). Further research on the design criteria led me to produce sub criteria which form the basis for my design proposals. These include: accessibility (ease of access), aesthetics, functionality, productivity and sustainability. The cost implications of these criteria, form the platform for my design change proposals.

There are different environmental factors that need to be considered in any sustainable building design. The main objectives of an environmental friendly design are to reduce or avoid the depletion of the critical environmental resource including raw materials, water, and energy (Hawkes, 2013). Furthermore, the construction designs should be able to prevent environmental degradation negative impact on the environment that may be due to the infrastructure or the facilities in the building over a period of time. This are the main critical factors, therefore, to be able to ensure that there is less environmental impact, the optimization of the site is very important and this includes the orientation of the site and the energy use as well as the transportation methods of the materials (McMullan, 2012). These features are very significant. Another essential element is the optimization of energy use including reduction of energy load and finally the conservation of water and recycling of used water.

Abstract— We all know that there is drastic growth of modern trends, materials and technologies in the global Construction Industry market. Hence, it is apprehended have a major effect on the path construction is executed in the future. Modern Techniques for building construction are around for greater output and operation. The main aim of modern construction technique is boost construction productivity, efficiency, user satisfaction, environmental performance, better quality, sustainable development and the predictability of delivery time of project. In this paper, research proposal that has arrived from literature review on application of modern construction techniques for improvement of the productivity is, Conventional practices used for construction is not sufficient and adequate or traditional techniques of construction need to upgrade according to global world trend.
