According Kenneth S. Deffeyes, oil production peakedexactly on December 16, 2005, when cumulative production exceeded 1.0065 trillion barrels ofoil [4]. Regardless of when oil production

They should not squeak or otherwise indicate a lack of proper lubrication.Control pre-functional tests conducted include start/stop hands off auto, and freeze stat. Thestart/stop hands off auto (S/S H/O/A) will verify that the unit can be properly shut downremotely from the web-based control system. The freeze stat test verifies the system properlyreacts to freezing conditions as a safety measure to protect the coils. For the purposes of testing,the freeze stat is tripped with a false temperature as to not damage the coils.The team decided, with input from the FMS

the use of this new technological process for economic reasons?This paper will apply a series of existing theories developed from the post World War II periodto the pre CAD period of the 1980’s to explain technological changes and apply them tocomputer automation design process of today. These ideas will help to develop a theory tounderstand this new design process. It will outline characteristics of this new design process andpresent a framework to examine the effects in a Construction Design course. Student surveysand supporting data are presented. Recommendations for new assessment are offered. Thelarger goal of this paper is to obtain feedback for a more serious journal length article.Theoretical BackgroundThere is a substantial body of

When professionals handle knowledge of high value, they intuitively want tocapture it, but often they cannot spend adequate time to capture and store it appropriately.Reference1. Casakin, H., and G.

prominence and the line thatseparates the different roles in the construction industry has already become blurred. Thetwo professions are so interrelated that the industry values a background in both fields.Increasingly more universities across the country and the world have an ArchitecturalEngineering curriculum. However, most existing programs emphasize training inArchitectural Engineering with significantly less emphasis placed on structuralengineering. In this report, I devised an undergraduate curriculum(s) at NC StateUniversity to build a professional career in building/bridge design with strong emphasisin both the structural as well as the architectural aspects. This plan may serve as a modelfor programs interested in a similar training path

that would involve more participantswould enable the data and conclusions to be further reaching in conclusions andrecommendations. As it now stands the conclusions can only be attributed to this small samplegroup. However, given the encouraging results from this study it appears that using an adoptedbuilding as a case study within this context could prove to be a valuable method for teachingstudents about commercial construction.References:1.

byrecording factual information (draw the plan and sketch the important space(s) in perspective).They then must think of the architectural vocabulary terms and organizational concepts discussedin class (based on Francis Ching’s Form, Space and Order3), and use these terms with a fewdiagrams to illustrate the concepts of form, space and order exhibited in the building or spacethey have selected. They must identify what formal transformations have occurred, documentone open space and one closed space, and decide which of the five ordering systems – linear,grid, centralized, radial, or cluster have been employed.The primary goal of this exercise is to force students to look at the architecture they experienceeveryday with a critical eye.

Structuring the course as a short-term offering is also aligned with current trendsthat indicate that there has been declining enrollment in full semester study abroad programsover the last decade. Approximately 56% of U. S. students studying abroad in 2005 selected Page 11.793.3programs with a duration that was less than one semester [7].Short-term study abroad programs have been proposed to be of particular benefit to studentsstudying in professional fields, which would include a field such as architecture.
