The Architect 's Role And Responsibilities

There are 25 major specialties in engineering that are recognized by professional societies. In any one of those 25 specialties, the goal of the engineer is the same. The goal is to be able to come up with a cost effective design that aids people in the tasks they face each day. Whether it be the coffee machine in the morning or the roads and highways we travel, or even the cars we travel in, it was all an idea that started with an engineer. Someone engineered each idea to make it the best solution to a problem. Even though engineer 's goals are similar, there are many different things that engineers do within their selected field of engineering. This paper will focus on the architectural field of engineering.

Interior design and architecture are essential, and often overlooked, aspects of everyday life. In modern society people rely on function, durability, and visual appeal when selecting designs for their homes, businesses, and places of leisure. The way that a space is designed influences such things as mood, which, in the case of a business, can impact the productivity of employees and either draw or repel customers. In residential design, the design becomes very personal and, to be considered a successful design, must properly reflect the home owner while at the same time offering some practicality that makes the space livable. An effective design, for any space, must solve some problem, be it function, flexibility, or some other criteria. Simply solving a problem would not please the customer, however, unless it offered some visual appeal. Creating function with style is the real job of any interior designer, and is essential in a content society.

These environmental costs are evidently known to negatively affect the animals and also the citizens in regions around such buildings and facilities. Again, the company Entergy, for instance has made a hefty amount of money functioning as a Nuclear Power Plant that produces electricity. Initially the plant had a 30 year license to operate, which was supposed to expire in March of 2012. But in March 2011 the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) extended the license to operate for another 20 years. But more recently this has changed and as an example of how beneficiaries have been less able to put environmental costs on others. The continued operations of this power plant specifically have become complicated/ compromised very recently and on August 28th 2013, Entergy announced that economic factors, particularly the lower cost of electricity provided by competing natural gas fired power plants, had led them to consider stopping operations and schedule the closing of the plant at the end of the year 2014. This is however, is in some ways a misstatement because when asking Angela Mrozinski about this she

In his attempts to assemble the information, approvals, and resources necessary to go ahead, he runs into many problems associated with the development process.
