It is intended to provide facilities for exploration and research into the petroglyphs made by ancient peoples in the Arizona desert. The Deer Valley Rock Art Center by Will Bruder is exceptional not because it is a building looking feta site, but because the compound peculiarities of site - where ancient artifacts that have rested for thousands of years meet the lip of a massive contemporary earthwork - generated the $1.5 million building and drove its programme. The Rock Art Center is a tiny 70 [m.sup.2]/700[ft.sup.2] building, a kinked line low in the land.

Project Acronym : DAMS-2 Title : Dynamically Adaptable Multiservice System Objective : DAMS -2 aimed to develop an advanced communication system capability addressing the needs of the private communications market. It built on the result of project 1059- DAMS At present, the vast majority of voice and data services are catered for by separate networks employing either circuit- or packet-switched techniques. The main objective of DAMS was to address the problems associated with integrating these services within the business environment. DAMS provides both time-dependent voice and time-independent data services in a fully integrated and cost-effective system matching near-term customer requirements. It implemented and validated the system concepts outlined by DAMS -1 and will also identified the migratory paths necessary to support the new services which will become available in the longer term. DAMS -2 has been based on and complies with international standards. General Information : The private communications market has traditionally been the driving force for the introduction of new services and facilities.

REGIONAL INFORMATION the mountains hutsuls architecture tourism WOODEN ARCHITECTURE THE HUTSUL CHURCH Probably the most distinctive structure that has carried architectural traditions of the distant past into our time is the wooden church. According to a Hutsul Christmas carol, everywhere that a drop of Christ's blood touched the ground, grew a church. Nearly every village, no matter how small, had its own church. Today, over a hundred churches can be found throughout the Carpathians, several dating back to the 15th century. The plan footprint of a classical Hutsul church is in the form of a cross. Churches are typically topped with one, three or even five cupolas. Historians believe that structures of this design were constructed in the Carpathians during the Kyivan Rus period, although none have survived to the present. Other church plans (a one chamber plan, and the three section plan) were also employed in the past. A one chamber plan church that was constructed in 1428 can be seen today in Seredne Vodyane (Rakhiv district). In the 16th-18th century, churches with a cross plan came to predominate in the Hutsul region. These types of churches were also common in eastern Ukraine, yet there, they were somewhat taller. Tragically, most wooden churches of eastern Ukraine were destroyed by the Soviets in the 1930's. Carpathian churches were spared by their remoteness and also since the region came under Soviet rule after WWII. The oldest surviving Hutsul churches were constructed in the 16th-17th century. Several examples are:

Dams vary in size from small earth embankments for farm use to high, massive concrete structures for water supply, hydropower, irrigation, navigation, recreation, sedimentation control, and flood control. As such, dams are cornerstones in the water resources development of river basins. Dams are now built to serve several purposes and are therefore known as multipurpose ( Fig. 1 ). The construction of a large dam requires the relocation of existing highways, railroads, and utilities from the river valley to elevations above the reservoir. The two principal types of dams are embankment and concrete. Appurtenant structures of dams include spillways, outlet works, and control facilities; they may also include structures related to hydropower and other project purposes.

Dataweb The Grand Dam by Julian Rhinehart When Hoover Dam was built in the 1930s, the great dam was known for its engineering superlatives. It was the highest dam ever built, the costliest water project, home of the largest power plant of its time. Today, as Hoover celebrates its 60th anniversary, we can see that the dam is not only an engineering wonder. It also is a work of art. Few structures in America display the diversity of design and craftsmanship that you see at Hoover Dam. It is a showcase of seldom-seen skills of artists and artisansbeautifully presented terrazzo tiles, sculpture, metalwork, and even military emplacements. The dam's architectural design varies a great deal from its initial plans. Bureau of Reclamation engineers, more concerned with flood control than appearance, simply wanted to embellish the dam with eagles, cornices, and other ornamentation.

The dam, located 48 kilometres (30 miles) southeast of Las Vegas , is named after Herbert Hoover , who played an instrumental role in its construction, first as Secretary of Commerce and then later as President of the United States . Hoover Dam was built by Six Companies, Inc. , under Frank Crowe . Construction began in 1931 and was completed in 1936, over two years ahead of schedule.

94. TVA: Design For The Public Good of TVA style as exemplified by Norris Dam owes much to architect Roland Wank . he handed the architect a copy of the plans for Norris Dam itself, http://www.tva.gov/heritage/design/

Design for the Public Good As TVA brought public power to the Tennessee Valley, TVA architect Roland Wank put design to work for the people. The functional simplicity of TVA style as exemplified by Norris Dam owes much to architect Roland Wank. Wank was successful in the years after World War I, helping to design factories, bridges, and power plants. But inflation in 1920s Austria was so catastrophic that it was tough even for a busy architect to make a living. In 1924 Wank boarded a steamship for America. Here he made a name for himself designing buildings in the New York area, and achieved success so quickly that he was able to have his wife come from Europe to join him. When the dam was finished in 1936, many observers were startled to see that it was actually beautiful. In the next few years, Wank designed other dams: Fontana, Chickamauga, Hiwassee. Not only did the boy from Budapest see the thunderous waterfalls of America, he got to create a few too. Name that artifact The TVA Historic Collection includes a host of items that reflect the technological advances of the 20th century. Can you identify this artifact from the TVA collection?

Bluestone Dam 5. Aesthetic Considerations to Bluestone Dam A digest of design decisions reveals interesting insight into the origins of Bluestone Dam. This document indicates that the prominent French-born architect, Dr. Paul Philippe Cret, made a significant contribution to the design of Bluestone Dam. The federal government retained Cret as an advisor and to design aesthetic components of dams and lockkeeper houses in the 1930s. Correspondence links Cret to the Pittsburgh District’s Tygart Dam, as well as involvement in the design of Montgomery Locks and Dam on the Ohio River, and Bonneville Dam in Oregon. Cret was largely responsible for the massive streamlined Art Deco lines of Bluestone Dam, as depicted in an elevation sketch that he personally presented at a Board of Consultants meeting in 1936. His depiction served as the basis for the overall aesthetic component of the dam’s design.
