Dr. Friedman then examines these challenges through ten topical chapters of interest to architects, civil and construction engineers, and urban planners. Each of these topics represents an aspect of urban design and describes an innovative solution and offers a detailed description of underlying principles. The text presents the state of the art and how it compares to a conventional design. In the second part of each chapter, several international projects are featured as case studies illustrating design implementations. Considers concepts that minimize urban development?s carbon footprint, such as district heating, passive solar gain, net-zero neighborhoods and shared transport; Emphasizes strategies for preserving a site?s natural assets, including open green spaces, existing building stock, and edible landscapes; Examines contemporary urban design concepts and illustrates these with examples from around the world. 606 $aSustainable urban development 606 $aSustainable architecture 606 $aCity planning 615 0$aSustainable urban development. 615 0$aSustainable architecture. 615 0$aCity planning. 676 $a307.1216 700 $aFriedman$b Avi$f1952-$0739772 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483898503321 996 $aFundamentals of sustainable urban design$92849440 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04003nam 22008413u 450 001 9910789527103321 005 20230126204809.0 010 $a0-203-83257-4 035 $a(CKB)2670000000094241 035 $a(EBL)801883 035 $a(OCoLC)797919229 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000523460 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11332669 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000523460 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10540273 035 $a(PQKB)10935910 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC801883 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000094241 100 $a20130418d2012|||| u|| | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aIntelligibility in World Englishes$b[electronic resource] $eTheory and Application 210 $aHoboken $cTaylor and Francis$d2012 215 $a1 online resource (153 p.) 225 1 $aESL & Applied Linguistics Professional Series 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a0-415-87181-6 327 $aCover; Intelligibility in World Englishes: Theory and Application; Copyright; Contents; Foreword; Preface; Acknowledgements; 1.

Set within the paradigm of world Englishes - which posits that the Englishes of the world may be seen as flexibly categorized into three Circles (Inner, Outer, Expanding) in terms of their historical developments - this text provides a comprehensive overview of the definitions and scopes of intelligibility, comprehensibility and interpretability, and addresses key topics within 410 0$aESL & Applied Linguistics Professional Series 606 $aEnglish language - Foreign countries 606 $aEnglish language -- Foreign countries 606 $aEnglish language - Social aspects - Foreign countries 606 $aEnglish language -- Social aspects -- Foreign countries 606 $aEnglish language - Variation - Foreign countries 606 $aEnglish language -- Variation -- Foreign countries 606 $aIntercultural communication 606 $aIntercultural communication 606 $aEnglish language$xVariation$zForeign countries 606 $aEnglish language$xSocial aspects$zForeign countries 606 $aEnglish language$zForeign countries 606 $aIntercultural communication 606 $aEnglish$2HILCC 606 $aLanguages & Literatures$2HILCC 606 $aEnglish Language$2HILCC 615 4$aEnglish language - Foreign countries. 615 4$aEnglish language -- Foreign countries. 615 4$aEnglish language - Social aspects - Foreign countries. 615 4$aEnglish language -- Social aspects -- Foreign countries. 615 4$aEnglish language - Variation - Foreign countries. 615 4$aEnglish language -- Variation -- Foreign countries. 615 4$aIntercultural communication. 615 4$aIntercultural communication. 615 0$aEnglish language$xVariation 615 0$aEnglish language$xSocial aspects 615 0$aEnglish language 615 0$aIntercultural communication 615 7$aEnglish 615 7$aLanguages & Literatures 615 7$aEnglish Language 676 $a420.9 676 $a428.007 700 $aNelson$b Cecil L$01466591 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789527103321 996 $aIntelligibility in World Englishes$93677091 997 $aUNINA
