Bay Area Rapid Transit(BART) system provides residents in Bay Area with convenient and rapid transportation service among nine counties [1]. After the concept of BART was born in late 1940, the BART board of directors was created in 1957 which had 12 members and controlled the whole BART project. They entitled a consortium of 3 engineering companies Parsons, Brinkerhoff-Tudor-Bechtel (PBTB) to direct the construction of BART which began about 1963 [4]. BART system tried to apply many innovative technologies
Abstract Philosophy has not paid sufficient attention to engineering. Nevertheless, engineering should not use this as an excuse to ignore philosophy. The argument here is that philosophy is important to engineering for at least three reasons. First, philosophy is necessary so that engineers may understand and defend themselves against philosophical criticisms. In fact, there is a tradition of engineering philosophy that is largely overlooked, even by engineers. Second, philosophy, especially ethics
rise. Thus the Miami River area is prone to flooding because of its low elevation and itself act as a conduit for water to flow into some poor region.The crisis are not only from the ocean but from the inland river and the rainfall. How to deal with the impact is a big problem of Miami.In this article, I`m going to analysis several successful projects which are of considerable referential importance to Miami such as Greater New Orleans Urban Water Plan and Cedar Rapids River Corridor Redevelopment

because nowadays the fresh water resources in the earth are getting depleted and when calculated approximately around only two and half percent of water is fresh water in the whole earth. The rest is the oceanic water which is salty in nature.Another study states that almost 70% of the whole water present on earth is in solid state i.e they are in form of ice in the polar regions like antartica and Greenland. The water available for human consumption is very meager like its just thirty percent of 2.5%

of military science having to do with procuring, maintaining and transporting material, personnel and facilities.” Another dictionary definition is: "The time-related positioning of resources." As such, logistics is commonly seen as a branch of engineering which creates "people systems" rather than "machine systems."

call the shots. By adopting the viewpoint of the owners, we can focus our attention on the complete process of project management for constructed facilities rather than the historical roles of various specialists such as planners, architects, engineering designers, constructors, fabricators, material suppliers, financial analysts and others. To be sure, each specialty has made important advances in developing new techniques and tools for efficient implementation of construction projects. However
