Download or read book ICOLD Dam Decommissioning Guidelines written by CIGB ICOLD and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-04 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dam decommissioning or dam removal has been increasingly common since the past decade. The reason for considering dam removal may have to do with the safety of dams, high repair costs, high operating and maintenance costs, or effects on fish passage and water quality. However, the decision to remove a dam must be based on careful evaluation of the alternatives to address the specific problem at each dam. The ICOLD Committee for decommissioning dams was established in 2005 to develop information that can be used by ICOLD members to respond to questions about the dismantling of dams and to provide a forum for the exchange of information . This ICOLD Bulletin is not intended as a design guide, but as a guide to the decision making process, consultation and regulatory approvals, design and construction issues, sediment management and performance monitoring. The primary aim of these Dam decommissioning guidelines is to provide dam owners, dam engineers and other professionals with the information needed to guide decision making when considering dam dismantling as a project alternative. They are not meant to be used as a design guide, but as a guide to highlighting the points of interest. The guidelines in this ICOLD Bulletin apply only to flood defense structures and not to fall dams.

Download or read book PROMOTION DE LA SANTE ET AUTONOMISATION DANS LE CONTEXTE AFRICAIN written by David HouŽto and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-02-26 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme promotion de la santé en Afrique, près de 30 ans après l'adoption de la Charte d'Ottawa, continue d'avoir des connotations complètement hors du sens que lui confère cette charte. Cela n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que la notion de santé dans ce contexte africain équivaut à la lutte contre la maladie à travers les soins de santé dispensés par des professionnels de la santé dans des formations sanitaires et les hôpitaux. L'évolution que connait le continent depuis quelques décennies est de donner un peu plus de place à la communauté à travers les relais communautaires dans une participation communautaire vidée de son contenu, car le pouvoir n'est jamais passé entre les mains des communautés.C'est au vu de tout ceci que le présent ouvrage à sa raison d'être pour expliquer les fondements de l'autonomisation communautaire et de la promotion de la santé avec leur importance pour la région africaine en proie aux mauvais indicateurs de santé comparativement aux autres régions du monde.

Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.
Download or read book Le march de la terre au moyen ge written by Laurent Feller and published by Ecole Française de Rome. This book was released on 2005 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le présent volume rassemble les actes de deux rencontres tenues en 1999 et 2001 dans le cadre d’un programme du Laboratoire de médiévistique occidentale de Paris (LAMOP) qui avait pour thème le marché de la terre au Moyen Âge. La notion est en elle-même problématique, puisque l’existence d’un marché au sens où l’entend l’économie libérale est difficilement acceptable en tant que telle pour le Moyen Âge. Le collectif s’est tout d’abord penché sur l’historiographie de la question avant de l’aborder au fond par une série d’études de cas. La terre circule entre les hommes ou des hommes vers des institutions et, en échange, des contreparties, fréquemment monétaires, sont données. Leur montant est-il arbitraire, obéit-il à des déterminations sociales ? Obéit-il au contraire à une forme de rationalité économique ? La valeur des contreparties autant que leur nature ou la façon dont les parties ont déterminé la hauteur de ce qui est cédé constituent les interrogations auxquelles le groupe de travail s’est attaché y apportant des réponses qui constituent des avancées méthodologiques importantes.
