An ignite style presentation given as part of the Reframe IA workshop day at the IA Summit 2013. The presentation outlines an emerging philosophy of design based around the idea of pervasive networks and augmentation, and briefly looks at what a new design practice needs to include to be successful in the networked world.
Sustainable Building Operations: New Technology OptionsJerry Yudelson
Jerry Yudelson describes how to use new technologies for monitoring and controlling building operations to promote sustainability in real estate operations.
The Kazakhstan's architecture of this Century is a peculiar phenomenon. The trend of active involvement in the World architectural process for Kazakhstan architecture emerged in the last quarter of the 20th century. Now the Kazakhstan architecture – an integral part of this process.
Many foreign architects involved in the design of objects on the Kazakhstan territory; Kazakhstan's architects work in different countries. This promotes deep interpenetration of creative concepts.
This formed the phenomenon of Kazakh architecture of the 21st century. It is organically connected to the cultural and historical identity of the Region and global processes of creative interpretation of forms, which are characteristic of World architectural process in general.
To illustrate this interesting phenomenon allocated 144 (72 + 72) typical examples of 2000-2015's buildings.
Examples are distributed in chronological order of the construct completion.
Images sources are indicated directly near with illustrations on each page.
Architects and companies listed on the basis of aggregate data from different sources (for some objects from various sources indicate different authors). About some buildings listed authors in the available sources has not yet been found.
The Author expresses his gratitude to Internet resources – https://www.google.com ; https://www.wikipedia.org – which to provide the ability to collect an information.

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON BEHAVIOUR OF NANO CONCRETEIAEME Publication
The influence of Nano-Silica on various properties of concrete is obtained by replacing the cement with various percentages of Nano-Silica. Nano-Silica is used as a partial replacement for cement in the range of 2.5%, 3%, and 3.5% for M25 mix. Specimens are casted using Nano-Silica concrete. Laboratory tests were conducted to determine the compressive strength, split tensile and flexural strength of Nano-Silica concrete at the age of 7 and 28 days. Results indicate that the concrete, by using Nano-Silica powder, was able to increase its compressive strength. However, the density is reduced compared to standard mix of concrete. The replacement of cement with 3% Nano-Silica results in higher strength and reduction in the permeability than the controlled concrete. The replacement of cement with Nano-Silica more than 3% results in the reduction of various properties of Nano-Silica concrete.

In this program, participants will learn the basics of precast concrete parking structures. Participants will also discuss: personal safety issues (lighting), fire safety properties, and the environmental benefits (LEED) of precast concrete.After this program, you will be able to:– Identify precast, prestressed concrete systems using in parking structures– Explain the benefits of using precast, prestressed concrete in parking structures– Make an informed material choice for your next parking structure design.
Tensegrity structure is the minimal structure that can support a weight and oppose horizontal forces, that uses compression and tension, but experiences no torque

What is a Column?
The column was an architectural invention which allowed for the support of ceilings without the use of solid walls, thereby increasing the space which could be spanned by a ceiling, allowing the entrance of light and offering an alternative aesthetic to building exteriors, particularly in the peristyles of temples and on colonnades along stoas.
Columns are frequently used to support beams or arches on which the upper parts of walls or ceilings rest.
In architecture, "column" refers to such a structural element that also has certain proportional and decorative features.
A column might also be a decorative element not needed for structural purposes; many columns are "engaged", that is to say form part of a wall.
Columns could also be incorporated (engaged) within walls or be free-standing and carry sculpture to commemorate particular events or people.
Not Just Another Brick in the Wall: Engaging 21st Century Learning Through Pa...Buffy Hamilton
Are you interested in creating conversations in your library to facilitate student learning and teacher collaboration? Do you see your library as more than just a place of information objects? Do you want your library to be about experiences and not just “stuff” in the library?
If so, I would like to invite you to my session, Not Just Another Brick in the Wall: Engaging 21st Century Learning Through Participatory School Librarianship, that will take place on 11/06/09 from 2:15PM to 3:30PM. It will be located in room 213BC of the Charlotte Convention Center. We will be engaging in our conversations about how to create conversations for formal learning and the AASL Standards for 21st Century Learners as well as creating conversations with your library community using traditional and Library 2.0 tools.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.
