Rapson, Jeffrey William 1971. "Private wilderness playgrounds : understanding the competitive effects of environmentally oriented master-planned communities." Thesis, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002. http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/32221.
Full textIncludes bibliographical references (p. 175-178).
The thesis of this work is to better understand the competitive effects of developing second-home master-planned communities in an environmentally oriented fashion. The competitive effects, are understood by examining the "traditional" land development approach and comparing it to the approach used in two case studies in this research-Spring Island and Dewees island. These measurements and comparisons are used to understand and nform the effectiveness of an environmentally-oriented development approach, whereby these development strategies can be put forth and adopted as an approach to create value in future residential developments. The study derives its information from personal interviews and secondary research on the two developments. The research then presents a comprehensive synopsis of the competitive strategies so that the subtle relationships between consumer preferences, development risks, and market feasibility can be better understood. This thesis is intended to better inform community developers of the benefits, financial and otherwise, that one can capture through a whole-systems approach to master-planned community development. A whole-systems approach to residential development is defined by taking the three primary drivers for decision-making, economics, community and environment, and actively considering the interconnections between the systems in a balanced orientation. This concept is often referred to as the 'solutions multiplier' effect. This thesis finds that residential community developers in the South Carolina Low Country secondhome market can generate significant premiums and differentiate their communities in a highly competitive marketplace, while making better decisions that are more responsive to a project's social, aesthetic, environmental, and economic site through a whole-systems market-based development approach. It will be shown that bringing these three primary drivers together and capitalizing on their interconnections has realized multiple benefits over their competition while creating a new community development prototype.

Emprin-Gilardini, Vincenzo (Vincenzo Marco) 1973. "Master builder of the Middle Ages and design build of today : an analysis and comparison." Thesis, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000. http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/8976.
Full textIncludes bibliographical references (leaf 73).
Design and build is both an old and a new method of project delivery. It is rooted in antiquity, when the master builder was usually both the designer and the constructor of the projects he envisioned. Labor force was used to haul large blocks of stone that skilled craftsmen would later fashion into useful components of a structure. Throughout this process, their efforts were controlled by the individual responsible for the project's design. The plans were often little more than an image in the designer's mind, and were realized only in the course of the actual construction. It was essential, therefore, that the designer be the builder as well. During the Renaissance, building design became so complex that the master builder could no longer be responsible for both the design and the construction of a project. The traditional method of project delivery grew out of this need for more extensive resources, until the design and build method once practiced by the master builder regained popularity in the 1970s. The reason of this phenomenon lays in the need of clients to investigate ways of controlling project costs and reducing delivering time. Today the term design and build refers to a method of project delivery in which a single entity provides to the client all of the services necessary to both design and construct all or a portion of the project. An analysis of the role of the master builder in the Middle Ages is provided. The reason why the Middle Ages were chosen lays in the fact that during this period outstanding projects were completed in Europe and the role of the master builder as a designer and constructor was then best represented. The construction of the cathedral of Chartres in France is used as an example. The modern concept of design and build is analyzed as well, providing the Oresund Tunnel project between Sweden and Denmark as an example. Finally, master builder and design and build are compared, with a focus on the similarities, the differences, what can be learned from the past and how it can be applied.

Full textThis PhD thesis uses statistics and econometric modelling to explore in empirical terms three energy and environmental economics issues. The first study approaches the energy-economy connection in a broad perspective: employing energy, population and income data for 133 countries over four decades, it provides a graphical examination of energy intensity combining static and dynamic analyses to assess the usefulness of this popular indicator. The use of Gapminder graphical tool allows the visualization of four variables at the time so as to unveil long term patterns characterizing energy and GDP data. The article conclusions answer negatively to the title’s question. The second study enters into production. With a focus on inputs, capital/energy substitutability is investigated by estimating the production function of the manufacturing sector for seven OECD countries. Using a four-input translog specification, input substitution is quantified by the cross-price elasticity of substitution. This traditional economics treatment provides updated figures about the technological limits in which economic systems have to operate during times of energy scarcity, environmental constraints and resource price volatility. One more proof that (cheap) energy and raw materials are essential inputs in production, as we know it and, thus, the world cannot get along without natural resources. The last chapter concerns an urgent issue for both human health and the environment: the ever-increasing emissions form the transport sector, focusing on road vehicles. After estimating consumer demand for both traditional and widely-available eco-fuels, LPG and methane, I simulate the effects of the introducing a carbon tax in Italy on both fuel/vehicle choice and emissions. The results indicate a positive responsiveness of consumer toward LPG and methane, leading to significant CO2 reduction; an essential factor being the diffusion of their refueling infrastructure. All the studies, are published in scientific journals, and they use original and verifiable data and calculation procedures, to contribute to relevant and new insights.
