Factors Affecting Product Lifetime: A Study In Support Of Policy Development For Waste Reduction, W. David Conn

City and Regional Planning

An exploratory study has been examined factors affecting the lifetimes of selected small electrical appliances, to assist in the development of policies to extend these lifetimes (for the purposes of conserving resources, protecting the environment, and reducing the costs of solid waste management). The study included (i) a consumer survey, (ii) in-depth interviews with manufacturers, and (iii) a limited investigation of second-hand markets. Tentative findings are that physical durability appears to be a key factor affecting the lifetime of a few of the products examined (particularly those that malfunction after less than three years' use) while the lifetimes of other …

Multifamily Highrise Buildings In Kuwait, Waleed Jelal Babaa

Architecture and Planning ETDs

Kuwait, a small Arab country with arid land, went through a considerable amount of development in the last four decades. The discovery of oil and its commercial exploitation attracted immigrants to the country and created paramount changes in both social life and the urbanization of the country.

The high rate of increase in population continued in spite of harsh geographical, topographical, ecological, and climatic factors. These factors with their distinctive characteristics are the determinants of the urban architectural design of the country. Such determinants are harsh and very difficult to deal with. Planners, architects, engineers, and builders had little experience …

The Architect As A Professional And His Relation To Construction, John Arthur Coons

Architecture and Planning ETDs

An examination of the nature of professionalism serves as a model against which the emergence of architecture as a profession can be compared. In what manner and for what reasons the architect eventually distinguished himself from the construction process is examined historically. Particular attention is paid to the evolution of the profession in England as an antecedent for similar developments in the United States. The professionalization of architecture prompted a continuous interaction of ethics and law with recent years witnessing a serious questioning of professional ethics by society through the tool of law. It is shown that ethical codes must …
