  • Why Buildings Fail: Are We Learning from Our Mistakes?
    Buildings 2012, 2, 326-331; doi:10.3390/buildings2030326 OPEN ACCESS buildings ISSN 2075-5309 www.mdpi.com/journal/buildings/ Editorial Why Buildings Fail: Are We Learning From Our Mistakes? M. Kevin Parfitt Department of Architectural Engineering, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802, USA; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel: +1 814 863 3244; Fax: +1 814 863 4789 Received: 30 August 2012 / Accepted: 31 August 2012 / Published: 5 September 2012 1. Introduction Most building professionals have investigated or performed remedial designs for at least one architectural or engineering system failure during their careers. Other practitioners, especially those who work for forensic consultants or firms specializing in disaster response and repair, are more familiar with the variety and extent of building failures as they assist their clients in restoring damaged or deficient buildings. The advent of social medial and twenty-four-hour news channels along with the general ease of finding more examples of failures in the Internet have made us realize that building failures in the broad sense are much more common than we may have realized. Relatively recent events leading to building failures such as the Christchurch, New Zealand earthquakes, the roof/parking deck of the Algo Centre mall in the northern Ontario, Canada city of Elliot Lake and the Indiana State Fairground stage collapse in the US are just a few reminders that much more work needs to be done on a variety of fronts to prevent building failures from a life safety standpoint. The need is compounded by economic concerns from what would be considered more mundane or common failures.

    6. 4 Prioritization of Arterial Roads and Primary . Highways Projects Level of Service and Capital Budget Information Recommendation That the April 3, 2018, Urban Form and Corporate Strategic Development report CR_4227, be received for information. Previous Council/Committee Action At the November 1, 2016, Executive Committee meeting, the following motion was passed: That Administration provide: a. a report outlining the breakdown by quadrant of infrastructure demand/capacity for arterial roads and primary highways in poor and very poor condition. b. a rating (A, B, C, D, F) for intersections on major arterials and primary highways categorized by quadrant c. some analysis on how this information would inform the prioritization of arterial road addition and widening projects for the next couple of budget cycles and return to Committee in the first quarter of 2018. Executive Summary This report outlines the status and performance of aspects of the road network and how improvements to the network are coordinated between the land development industry and the City. Monitoring indicates that the majority of Edmonton’s arterial road network and primary highways are operating within design capacity, and 94 percent of arterial road intersections in the city are rated A through E. This means they are operating within an acceptable level of service. Twenty intersections (six percent) are rated F. This means they are congested during peak hours. Some of the F rated intersections are in new growth areas where the road network is not fully developed. Other F rated ROUTING - Urban Planning Committee | DELEGATION - P. Ohm/D. Vriend April 3, 2018 – Urban Form and Corporate Strategic Development CR 4227 Page 1 of 8 Prioritization of Arterial Roads and Primary Highways Projects intersections in the city would require additional investigation to determine the cause of congestion and the benefits of additional investment in improvements.

  • Structural Control of the Morphometry of Open Rock Basins, Kananaskis Region, Canadian Rocky Mountains
    5" %~ '.5" :7~, 6[mU ELSEVIER Geomorphology 22 (1998) 313-324 Structural control of the morphometry of open rock basins, Kananaskis region, Canadian Rocky Mountains D.J. Sauchyn a,*, D.M. Cruden b, X.Q. Hu c,1 a Department of Geography, University of Regina, Regina, Saskatchewan $4S OA2, Canada b Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 2G7, Canada c Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 2E3, Canada Received 12 September 1996; revised 18 July 1997; accepted 14 August 1997 Abstract The morphometry of chutes (couloirs), rock funnels, and open cirques are related to the structure of dissected rock masses in the Kananaslds region of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Data for ten morphometric variables were derived from digital elevation models of 56 open rock basins. The basins were classified structurally according to the relative orientations of bedding planes and the rock slopes. A hypothesis of no differences in morphometry among structural classes is rejected from the results of nonparametric analysis of variance and paired comparisons of rank scores. Basins on dip and overdip slopes have a distinct :size, and those on anaclinal slopes have a distinct width and shape. Variation in morphometry from low compactness and area/relief (chutes) to high compactness and low area/relief (funnels) to high compactness and area/relief (open cirques) corresponds to a change in dominant structure from orthoclinal to dip-overdip to underdip to anaclinal. The dip of bedding planes relative to the slope of rockwalls controls the mode of initial displacement of joint blocks and, thereby, the spatial distribution of the retreat of rockwalls.
