Technology development and sustainable construction
Article Abstract:
Civil engineering and construction companies can contribute to the goal of environmental sustainability in three ways. They must establish build environments in which the traditional linear process is transformed into a cyclical process where energy and materials are reused or recycled. They must also help repair the polluted environment such as damaged and contaminated soil, water and air. Lastly, they can help in the transformation of desert lands into fertile regions.

Analysis of client-satisfaction factors in construction industry
Article Abstract:
Ordinal data on client-satisfaction factors were analyzed using analysis of variance and two-way analysis of variance. The statistical methods used are generally suitable for the data in interval and ratio scales in parametric methods, hence, they cannot be depended on to produce accurate measures of variance. The means and standard deviations derived using the two methods cannot be clearly justified unless other variables are substituted for direct measurements.
