Abstract (sommario):
Community is an integrative motif and the central message of the Bible. The divine goal of history is God's establishment of community. The Triune God is the origin of community and community is the mode of existence of God. Christian community is derived from God's community. The church is a community restored by the Triune God, and so the essence of the church is Christian community. The Bible is the history of community involving the beginning of community, the destruction of community, the restoration of community, and the completion of community. Christian community is a channel of realization of the kingdom of God. As a restored community, the early church was a loving, sharing, praying, and witnessing community. The early church's common possession and sharing of materials in brotherly love had continuously been practiced throughout the churches as indicated in the books of Acts and the Epistles. The early church is a model of Christian community that believers must always strive for and constantly return to. It is possible to live the life of the early church community even now. This is proven by the history of the Protestant community and contemporary Protestant communities. Christian community is not just a conceptual, but also a practical community. Christian community can be practiced in various forms. Protestant community includes the four modes: intentional Christian community, monastic community, church community, and cell group community. These four modes have an equal value in a sense that they exert the communal spirit in diverse ways. These four modes of Protestant community have appeared throughout the history of Protestant community. Protestant communities influenced the renewal of the established church through their devoted community life of love. They have been the wellsprings of renewal in Protestantism. Protestant communities also become a place of reconciliation between divided Christians and denominations. The communities have a role as mediator of reconciliation among divided churches and denominations. Community movements have also acted as the main mission movement in the history of Protestant mission. The main missions such as the Anabaptists, Moravians, and modern mission societies all exerted a powerful mission in a communal basis. The contribution of the Moravian missionaries of the Herrnhut community, beginning half a century before William Carey, brought about a shift of emphasis in missionary awareness within Protestantism. The Herrnhut community included the centripetal mission and centrifugal mission by living an intentional community and sending Moravian missionaries. Mission should be exerted from a community dimension, not an individual level. The history of Protestant mission and contemporary Protestantism testifies that mission through community is the most effective and powerful method of mission. Up to now mission has usually been confined to centrifugal mission at an individual level, which emphasized preaching the gospel to foreign regions. It is a phenomenon of unbalanced mission. A balanced mission includes both centripetal and centrifugal mission. Mission is not only a matter of the scope of preaching the gospel to the ends of earth, but also a matter of content. The content of mission is a radical discipleship and whole gospel in all–inclusiveness, containing centripetal and centrifugal mission, Christian presence and Christian proclamation, and the New Commandment and the Great Commission. Community is an essence of church and an essence of mission.

Abstract (sommario):
The objective of this thesis is to explore the procedural and substantive changes that are required to create communities that are sustainable in ecological and social terms, both on a global and local level. Current environmental problems such as global warming, ozone depletion, acid rain and deforestation indicate that human activity is changing the biosphere at an unprecedented rate. While the western world celebrates the apparent triumph of the capitalist industrial free market system, the by-products of industrialization, including the deteriorating health of the biosphere and the increasing demands of developing nations, appear to pose serious threats to the long term sustainability of biological communities including human communities. A community is defined geographically by its physical structure, socially by its shared values, and politically by its capacity for self-determination. Creating a sustainable community requires that fundamental change occurs physically, to minimize a community's impact on ecological systems; socially, to establish a consensus on ecological and social values for the community; and, politically, to improve the capability of communities to implement appropriate locally-based solutions to environmental and social problems. The fact that western society has allowed life-threatening global environmental and social problems to emerge indicates that there may be a serious flaw in the way the dominant society perceives reality and humanity's place in the world. Consequently, this thesis begins with an analysis of the flaws in the dominant world view and the potential for an emerging ecological world view to form the basis for defining a sustainable community and establishing principles for ecological and social sustainability to guide community development. A sustainable community is defined as a community that is responsible, caring, empowered, healthy, and most importantly, in balance with nature. While there are numerous approaches to creating sustainable communities, the choices that a community should make are clearer if the community has a set of values or principles to define the goals they are trying to achieve. The principles for ecological sustainability presented in this thesis are based on current ecological theories and reflect the need for communities to preserve biological diversity, maintain the productive capacity of ecosystems, integrate human activity with nutrient cycles, minimize resource and energy consumption, and establish a dynamic equilibrium between human and natural systems. The principles for social sustainability are based on current literature and emphasize the need for communities to change societal values, meet basic needs, achieve equity, promote self-determination, and create a sustainable economy. This thesis proposes that creating a sustainable community involves both designing procedural mechanisms to support social transformation, and implementing substantive changes to ensure the long-term sustainability of the community. A process for change must include mechanisms to build community consensus on the need and direction of change, and to co-ordinate actions both within the community and with other levels of government. Specific examples of necessary substantive changes are provided based on the application of the principles for ecological and social sustainability to many aspects of community activity including land use planning, economic development, waste management, resource use, and transportation. A short examination of various models of sustainable community initiatives are provided to illustrate a variety of experiments in new institutions, processes and policy proposals currently being undertaken in North America that can be drawn upon by communities trying to implement local solutions to environmental and social problems.

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2005.
AENGLISH ABSTRACT: With the advent of the internet a few years ago many online communities have been formed from traditional communities. The ability of a traditional community to transform into an online community depends on the type of interaction that is required by that particular community. Based on the arguments of various critics of the online community, this study will focus on the feasibility of transforming the golfing fraternity from a traditional to an online community. The study project therefore proposes to understand online communities as a subset within the general concept of community. It will be determined if the golfing community that currently falls into the traditional framework is open to create itself into a modern online community. The characteristics of traditional communities include bonding, sharing of information and other items of common interest which is similar for online communities. It is within this objective that the characteristics of online communities and the relationship between traditional and modern communities will be discussed. The first phase was to develop a questionnaire based on desirability and expectations of an online golfing community and for the purposes of this study, the research population comprised of the registered golf members of golf clubs in the Western Province Golf Union (WPGU) in the Western Cape. Furthermore there is within the Western Cape golfing community, possibly scope for a universal understanding of this community as a whole. Golfing communities can be defined through their unique characteristics. Golf communities are traditional communities that have evolved over time. Since modern communities are no longer constrained by geography the question arises whether, golf which has all the characteristics of a traditional community would be able to migrate to a modern online community. From the empirical study it became evident that the current golf community is open to using the internet to gain information on golf. The potential for the success of an online golfing community especially an interactive one in the future is great as the survey results show that the current membership are open to the idea of an online community.FRIKAANSE OPSOMMING:
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Met die koms van die internet 'n paar jaar gelede, is baie aanlyn gemeenskappe vanaf tradisionele gemeenskappe ontwikkel. Die vermoe van tradisionele gemeenskappe om na aanlyn gemeenskappe te verander, is afhanklik van die tipe interaksie wat in daardie spesifieke gemeenskap benodig word. In die lig van 'n literatuurstudie oor die verskillende standpunte oor aanlyn gemeenskappe, is 'n ondersoek gedoen na die aanneemlikheid van die verandering van 'n tradisionele gemeenskap, naamlik die gholf gemeenskap, na 'n aanlyn gemeenskap. Die studie het daarom ten doel om aanlyn gemeenskappe te ondersoek as 'n sub-afdeling van die algemene gemeenskap konsep. Deel van die ondersoek behels die openheid van die gholf gemeenskap, 'n tipiese tradisionele gemeenskap, om 'n moderne virtuele gemeenskap te vorm. Die samestelling van 'n tradisionele gemeenskap beskik oor soortgelyke eienskappe as die van 'n aanlyn gemeenskap soos verbondenheid, die deel van inligting en ander items van gemeenskaplike belang. Dit is die doelwit van hierdie studie om die eienskappe van die aanlyn gemeenskap en die verwantskap tussen tradisionele en aanlyn gemeenskap te bespreek. Die eerste fase, was die ontwikkeling van 'n vraelys met klem op die wenslikheid en behoeftes van 'n aanlyn gholf gemeenskap. Die populasie vir die studie was lede van die Westelike Provinsie Gholf Vereniging (WPGU) in die Wes Kaap. Die data wat ontgin is uit die navorsing van die WPGU kan ook moontlik bydra tot 'n verstaan van die universele gholf gemeenskap in Suid Afrika. Gholf gemeenskappe kan gedefinieer word deur hulle unieke eienskappe. Hulle is tradisionele gemeenskappe wat ontwikkel het deur die jare. Sedert moderne gemeenskappe nie langer geografies beperk is nie moet die vraag gestel word of 'n tradisionele gholf gemeenskap tot 'n moderne aanlyn gemeenskap kan ontwikkel? Uit die literatuurstudie het die duidelik geword dat die huidige gholf gemeenskap oop is vir die gebruik van die internet om inligting oor gholf in te win. In die lig van huidige lede se aanvaarding van aanlyn gemeenskappe lyk die potensiaal en moontlikheid vir die sukses van 'n aanlyn gholf gemeenskap in die toekoms belowend.

Abstract (sommario):
Most of the research done on microblogging services, such as Twitter, has focused on how the individual communicates with their community at a micro and macro level; less research has been done on how the community affects the individual. We present in this thesis some ideas about this phenomenon. We do this by collecting data of Twitter users at a conference. We collected 21,150 tweets from approximately 400 users during a five week period and additionally collected survey data from a small subset of the tweeters. By observing users of Twitter, before, during, after a specific event we discovered a pattern in postings. Specifically, we found that tweets increased the week of the conference and that by the end of the conference the network was strong. These findings lead us to conclude that collocation of communities, like conferences, has a substantial effect on online microblogging behaviors.

Abstract (sommario):
Music is authentically interpreted as a universal language due to its strong strings between humankind. In addition, as an art, it becomes the source for other fields, which carry both intellectual and intuitive aspects. Thus, the combination of Music and the art of visualizing spaces, Architecture derives because of the resemblance between its origin, elements, and composition. Becoming a part of the built environment, the spirit of music responds to different types of functions for its effective benefits to the involved parties. While straightening the subjective inquiry on this point, it was identified that ‘learning of music’ becomes the prior concern with its active phenomenon since it expresses the ‘art inside the art’. An expanded literature review has given supportive statements to the inquiry like the relevance of the classroom atmosphere as a distinctive aspect of music education that we may affect to maximize perception in this field besides the teacher's role and students’ involvement in particular. Furthermore, the research has been concerned with how much the built space is perceived as a musical space and its response to the music learning process, considering various music pedagogical practices. The tool for the process was investigated with the Artistic parallelism between Musical elements and Architectural elements, and its compositional relativity. For the inquiring convergence, the research methodology was generated to investigate two main aspects; to which extend the musical variables and architectonics have stated their relativity in studied music learning spaces and its building performances with essential physical attributes, from the user’s point of view. The study is intended to continue exploring how much the Artistic parallelism between Music and Architecture affects the conduciveness of Music Learning spaces and how it benefits the learning process and generation of good music, not only as a knowledge seeker but also as an artist.

Abstract (sommario):
This study aimed to investigate the impact of indoor greenery on occupants' well-being and design preferences. Previous research on outdoor greenery has left a gap in understanding the relationship between interior greenery and well-being. Using a sample of 36 final year Architecture students, the study tested four interior conditions in varying green coverage ratios and varying observing distances through a 3D simulated setup and virtual methods. The results showed that a high ratio of indoor greenery, regardless of observing distance, was consistently more beneficial than low greenery conditions. Specifically, a high amount of greenery at a far distance delivered the highest levels of psychological well-being, with 61.11% of participants reporting high wellbeing. In contrast, low greenery at a far distance was the least beneficial combination, resulting in lower well-being (38.89% - low, 2.78% - very low), personal satisfaction, negative feelings, and weaker connection to the indoor space. Most participants preferred indoor courtyards with 50% exposure to natural light due to the sense of naturalness and vibrant shadows they provided. The study recommends that Architects, Interior Designers, and Landscape Architects consider incorporating high indoor greenery at a distance and partial exposure to natural light to promote psychological well-being in future indoor green spaces.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Due to the complicated nature of building projects and the participation of several participants, disputes are inescapable in the building projects. The disadvantages of the Dispute Resolution Mechanisms (DRM) utilized in the projects have shifted the focus to conflict avoidance according to the premise that prevention is more effective than cure. On the other side, the chance of disagreements appears to be lower in projects procured by utilizing Building Information Modelling (BIM). However, there is a growing need to explore conflict avoidance from the standpoint of integrating Building Information Modelling in the Sri Lankan context. Therefore, this study seeks to investigate the applicability of integrating BIM as a dispute avoidance mechanism in Sri Lankan construction projects. A qualitative research approach was adopted to fulfil the study's goal. Specifically, the case study method was utilized, selecting suitable cases from the Colombo area that incorporate BIM in their respective building projects. Semistructured interviews were used to acquire research data from nine experienced individuals with BIM experience who were engaged in the selected cases. A strategic framework was developed based on the analysed causes of disputes in the selected cases, dispute avoidance tactics adopted in the cases, and BIM features that affect dispute avoidance strategies. The study concluded that BIM can be used as a potential dispute avoidance mechanism in Sri Lankan construction projects.

In Sri Lanka, particularly in commercial and shopping areas within the City of Colombo, the issue of roadside parking has emerged as a significant challenge. This predicament has been exacerbated by the spread of private vehicles, especially three-wheelers, which often operate without dedicated parking spaces despite existing regulations in Sri Lanka. This research endeavours to bridge the divide between the legal requirements, as stipulated by regulations, and the actual operational demand for three-wheeler parking in supermarket areas within Colombo, Sri Lanka. By conducting a meticulous comparative analysis and employing statistical tools like SPSS, the study seeks to provide valuable insights into the onsite three-wheeler parking needs of supermarket developments. The ultimate objective of this research is to establish a standardized framework for allocating three-wheeler parking slots within supermarket areas. This framework aims not only to cater to the existing parking demand but also to alleviate the parking-related traffic issues that currently plague Colombo's commercial and shopping areas. In doing so, this research aspires to contribute to the optimization of urban transportation, making it more efficient and accessible for all road users while also fostering sustainable urban development in the vibrant city of Colombo, Sri Lanka.

Abstract (sommario):
This research paper focuses on analysing the significant factors for land use impact assessment in building construction projects in Sri Lanka using a whole life cycle analysis approach. The study recognizes the importance of land use in achieving sustainability and highlights the potential environmental consequences of land use changes and occupation. Through a questionnaire survey and the application of the Relative Importance Index (RII) method, the study identifies and ranks the key factors for land use impact assessment. The findings reveal that factors such as site selection, erosion and sedimentation control, site assessment and development, and on-site renewable energy play a crucial role in assessing the land use impact of building construction projects. A comprehensive assessment framework is proposed, which allocates credits to these factors based on their significance. The developed framework provides a practical tool for evaluating and promoting sustainable land use practices in the construction industry. The research underscores the need for considering land use impacts throughout the entire life cycle of buildings and emphasizes the importance of integrating sustainable practices into construction processes. By adopting the identified factors and assessment framework, construction projects in Sri Lanka can enhance their sustainability performance and minimize their land use impacts, leading to a more environmentally responsible built environment.

Abstract (sommario):
As the building sector is a major contributor to global energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, there is a growing focus on achieving significant reductions in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in the building sector. Energy consumption in buildings can be classified into embodied energy and operational energy. Studies have indicated that operational energy contributes to 80%–90% of the total life cycle energy in buildings while embodied energy only contributes to 10%–20%. Though several strategies have been implemented to reduce OE, there has not been enough attention on reducing embodied energy in buildings. Therefore, it is vital to conduct a study on reducing embodied energy in buildings. A comprehensive literature review was conducted by referring to books, reports, theses, journals, magazines, and conference proceedings to identify several practices for reducing embodied energy in buildings as well as barriers to moving towards low embodied energy in buildings. In conclusion, the study showed that reducing embodied energy in buildings is an essential step towards achieving significant reductions in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in the building sector, and a concerted effort is needed to overcome the identified barriers and implement the identified practices.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
This abstract presents findings from a mixed-methods study examining the integral role of Facilities Managers (FMs) in the establishment of desalination plants. Qualitative data was gathered from experts directly involved in establishing desalination plants. while quantitative data were gathered from FMs overseeing water treatment facilities. Non-probability sampling was used, with thirty-six questionnaires distributed. Through the literature, identified eight stages in desalination plant development: planning, design, tendering, construction, operation and maintenance, testing and commissioning, handover, and demolition. To assess the significance of FM roles, the Relative Importance Index (RII) was applied. Key findings related to the FM role are, risk assessment being crucial in the planning stage, contract document preparation in the design phase, and evaluating tender submissions during tendering. Resource allocation took precedence in construction, while maintenance schedule preparation was paramount during operation and maintenance. In the testing and commissioning phase, ensuring proper design, installation, testing, operation, and maintenance was critical. During handover, overseeing project documents was vital, and contributing to demolition decisions was crucial in the demolition stage. These results underscore the essential role of FMs throughout desalination plant projects. They offer insights for organizations and industry professionals, facilitating a better understanding of FM responsibilities at each stage and improving overall project management.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
This research study focuses on the impact of thermal performance on vernacular courtyard houses in Jaffna. Vernacular courtyards, known for their indigenous architectural style, exhibit sustainable, climate-responsive building design despite being considered primitive in construction techniques and material usage. The study comprises three phases: analyzing literature to assess courtyard house efficiency, identifying existing vernacular courtyard house typologies in Jaffna, and investigating the thermal performance of two selected courtyard houses from different typologies within the same climate zone. By comparing their thermal performance and efficiency, this study validates the effectiveness of using courtyards as a design strategy to enhance thermal performance. The research highlights the need to study the concept of "Vernacular courtyard typologies based on thermal performance" as a new area of study. This study helps architects, planners and designers to rethink sustainable building design strategies with emerging technologies.

Abstract (sommario):
Sri Lanka as a developing country, continues to use the take-make-dispose paradigm of the conventional linear economy. Scarcity of resources and municipal solid waste management problem that linear economies may pinpoint as the underlying cause. By using a Community-driven Material Recovery Facility (CdMRF) as a tool, the Sustainable Circular Economy, a novel developing idea pertinent to the Sri Lankan context, can be a better alternative in this research study's effort to address such difficulties. Waste can be converted into a resource should be a significant fact in this study. Wattala CdMRF is the selected case study. The mixed method used for this study and methodology used are onsite observations, 11 Key Informant Interviews (KII), 35 questionnaire surveys were conducted for the households, commercial enterprises and material collectors by using random sampling method. The key findings of this study demonstrate converting informal material collector occupation into a formalized profession, saving mechanism through resource banking establishment, formalized National Waste Management Committee and Journey of Transformation (JoT) through innovations. The sustainability of the CdMRF is largely dependent on social indicators, with community as the core element of running to achieve Sustainable Circular Economy while enhancing environmental positive externalities.
