The first of these communities began construction in 1946, just one year after the war's end: the Gallaratese project. In late 1967, as the plan allowed for the private development of Gallaratese 2, the esteemed Studio Ayde, led by partner Carlo Aymonino, was assigned the project. Ay...

Murphy was alarmed by the flooding risk potential of Callahan’s scheme and dismissed it as “an eleventh-hour effort to cut construction costs…” The construction of Storrow Drive several years earlier had filled sixty-four acres of river, and a study by the Charles B. Maguire engineering f...
The Journal of Building Engineering (JOBE) is an interdisciplinary journal that covers all aspects of science and technology concerned with the whole life cycle of the built environment; from the design phase through to construction, operation, performance, maintenance and its deterioration. JOBE only...
construction year, and renovation status. Archetype-specific energy intensities, fuel mix, and use of local RESs are used to estimate the aggregated energy demand from the building stock, as well as the use of various energy carriers. Carbon emission intensities per energy carrier are used to est...
An early qualitative Walsh model described by Pomerantz and Abrahamson proposed significant π-character for the central C–C bond (the HOMO), and its construction from unhybridized 2p orbitals16. Later MO-SCF calculations by Newton and Schulman also suggested strong p-character, reporting that the...
A second Hyde Park, New York house settlement case in the 1980's (est) was traced to construction of the home on what had been a landfill. By bad luck, a portion of the home's foundation was constructed on fill while the other half sat on more sound soils, leading to significant dif...

The building and construction sector accounts for around 39% of global carbon dioxide emissions and remains a hard-to-abate sector. We use a data-driven analysis of global high-level climate action on emissions reduction in the building sector using 256,
