  • An Analysis of Leed and Breeam Assessment Methods for Educational Institutions
    AN ANALYSIS OF LEED AND BREEAM ASSESSMENT METHODS FOR EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS Tracie J. Reed, M.St. IDBE, LEED AP,1 Peggi L. Clouston, P.Eng., Ph.D.,2 Simi Hoque, Ph.D.,3 and Paul R. Fisette4 ABSTRACT This study examines the differences between two environmental assessment methods for the K-12 education sector: the United States Green Building Council’s (USGBC) LEED Schools Version 3.0 and the British Research Estab- lishment’s (BRE) BREEAM Education issue 2.0. Credit requirements are compared side-by-side and against recom- mendations from researchers in areas such as acoustics, lighting and indoor environment quality. Strengths in the two schemes and areas for improvement are highlighted, with acknowledgement that each scheme offers components and techniques from which the other could benefit.

Qantas CEO Alan Joyce said the airline’s overall lounge capacity in Singapore would increase by 60%. “With the return of our A380 service to Singapore we’ve got more passengers transiting through our existing lounge and strong demand for travel in premium cabins,” he said. Qantas will work with Chef Neil Perry and Industrial Designer David Caon in collaboration with designer Akin Atelier. “The design will embody a clear focus on sustainability with choices in materials, lighting interior, layouts and amenities all reflecting the highest local and international design techniques,” said a release from Qantas 1 Copyright DutyFree Magazine.

W Those who have integrated corporate aviation into their business plan will tell you of the productivity and profit en- hancements it can offer. They will point to the key benefit of flexibility and the ability to quickly rearrange planning and the ability to move key staff at business-critical moments and close the deal quickly and efficiently. Many will point to technologies such as video and telepresence as viable alternatives and whilst these systems are valuable and useful in their own right, they cannot offer the one to one human meetings that corporate aviation can. Many cultures in key markets express a preference for person-to-person meetings and a traditional handshake can seal the deal. In this corporate aviation offers benefits that cannot be matched. We will endeavour to show both shareholders and others with an interest in the company’s well-being in interna- tional markets that corporate aviation can help to drive new business and consolidate markets.

  • Smart Urban Spaces Optimising Design for Comfort, Safety and Economic Vitality
    Smart Urban Spaces Optimising design for comfort, safety and economic vitality Urban planners often ponder over the ways in which people will move through their designs, interact with the environment and with each other, and how best to utilise the spaces provided.

Through the forecasting of movement and activity patterns, tailored to the specific use, our pedestrian flow modelling informs design and management in order to optimise the use of urban spaces and enhance user experience.

Accurate modelling provides a basis on which to assess potential risks and implement counter measures to negative factors such as poor access, fear of crime, inadequate parking facilities and lack of signage. In addition, it allows us to optimise the placement of activities – for example, placing retail in areas where the most footfall is expected; identifying appropriate spaces to locate other social activities; etc.

    2012–2013 Ideas and action Annual Report for a better city For the first time in history, the majority of the world’s population resides in cities. And by 2050, more than 75 percent of us will call cities home. SPUR works to make the major cities of the Bay Area as livable and sustainable as possible. Great urban places, like San Francisco’s Dolores Park playground, bring people together from all walks of life. 2 SPUR Annual Report 2012–13 SPUR Annual Report 2012–13 3 It will determine our access to economic opportunity, our impact on the planetary climate — and the climate’s impact on us. If we organize them the right way, cities can become the solution to the problems of our time. We are hard at work retrofitting our transportation infrastructure to support the needs of tomorrow. Shown here: the new Transbay Transit Center, now under construction. 4 SPUR Annual Report 2012–13 SPUR Annual Report 2012–13 5 Cities are places of collective action. They are where we invent new business ideas, new art forms and new movements for social change. Cities foster innovation of all kinds.
