increasing to four lanes, entry ramp at Roe Highway and an exit ramp at Armadale Road. Additionally, the positioning of utilities such as lighting, drainage pipes, electrical cables and intelligent transport system to be placed for the upgrade on road infrastructure (Main Roads Western Australia 2015b). 2.0 Site Investigation and Preparation For this widening road project, individual and careful planning is needed for well systematic schedule, minimal costs and safety of the work. The site layout, sequence

construction, and maintenance of military installations, facilities, civil works projects, airfields, roadways, and ocean facilities. Providing and Maintaining Critical Infrastructure Facilities Engineering provides and maintains the critical infrastructure needed for both domestic and worldwide operations. This infrastructure includes system-specific facilities and the full range of other facilities needed to develop, test, produce, deploy, operate, and support the nation's

Why Highways Are Improved and Constructed Enhancing an existing highway is preferred to the construction of a new one. Highways are developed to meet general traffic needs, to eliminate or decrease negative impacts caused by traffic or when changes in land use so require. A new highway shall be constructed when the existing highway network no longer meets the requirements of traffic or land use, and these requirements cannot be satisfied or eliminated through road improvements or other transport

paper examines the effects of private participation in infrastructure (PPI) in the developing world on the provision of infrastructure services. This process is colloquially referred to as privatization and involves the transfer of previously state-owned and operated infrastructure assets to operation and sometimes ownership by the private sector. Analysis of more than two decades worth of evidence showed that, in terms of the impact on infrastructure provision, PPI tends to provide positive gains in

the building stretches out to the edge of all sides and creates opportunity to provide rain protection through overhangs along the sidewalks. The adjacent street, Sustainability Street, is a mix of landscape and urban infrastructure project; it combines transportation infrastructure, accessible pedestrian travel, native planting, storm water retention, bio-filtration and ground water recharge. Passive design for heating, cooling and ventilating was put into consideration during the design process

probability of unwanted event which may or may not occur. -Risk – The statistical expectation value of unwanted event which may or may not occur. Some safety measures should be taken before constructing a highway. Workers Safety : As our highway infrastructures agency and many transport agencies are focusing on rebuilding and improving existing road ways. That means more hard work is being performed on roadways that are open to traffic. Worker Visibility:  –Requires the use of high visibility safety

in the world, lending around US $25 billion a year to developing countries.

For this paper water structures and infrastructures were selected as focus points because the longer we wait to fix issues with them, the more expensive it will get, in other words, we are in a race against time. Studying the past it is easy to see how water availability made population explode in an area such as Southern California, where savvy marketing and great politics made it happen. Particularly, for Los Angeles and for the purposes of public narrative, Marc Reisner’s Cadillac Desert does

Water is an essential commodity for human development. Unfortunately, many communities experience the lack of quality water resources. The aim of this paper is to describe and consider the most common water supply challenges facing many communities and their consequences for firefighting. The paper presents some demonstrations of the primary water supply difficulties leveraging communities. The consequences of these water supply difficulties on firefighting capabilities are suggested in this paper
