“The tragic effects of terrorism have forced the new-construction industry to re-evaluate traditional methods of fire protection in commercial infrastructures. That includes everything from building codes, to structural design issues and the less durable fireproofing materials currently specified for commercial steel structures.” IssuesFireEffectsDesignBuildingMaterialsIndustryMethodStructureTerrorismProtectionTraditionalCodeTragicConstructionSteelInfrastructureEvaluateConstruction Industry Author:Craig Scott
“It should be the privilege of every worker to take advantage of all the improved methods of working that relieve him from the tedium and fatigue of purely mechanical toil, for by this means he gains leisure for the thought necessary to working out his designs, and for the finer touches that the hand alone can give. So long as he remains master of his machinery it will serve him well, and his power of artistic expression will be freed rather than stifled by turning over to it work it is meant to do.” GivingShouldWellsMeanLongHandsPoliticsEconomyDesignExpressionMastersGainsAdvantageMethodRemainsWorkersPrivilegeWork OutArtisticLiberalismWorking ItLeisureToilMachineryFatigueArtistic ExpressionTedium Author:Gustav Stickley

“Complacency with our traditional judgement based thinking methods is not enough. Our existing thinking habits are excellent just as the rear wheel of a motor car is excellent but not enough.

“There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies.
