Download or read book Authentic Reconstruction written by John Bold and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Notions of authenticity lie at the heart of many questions about heritage and identity in the built environment. These questions are most pertinent when buildings have been destroyed in disaster or war, and the built fabric is being reconstructed to reinstate traditional or historic appearances in place of what was lost. Authentic Reconstruction examines this idea of reconstruction, using it as a prompt to examine a range of deeper issues on heritage and the built environment. From post-WWII reconstruction programmes through to the rebuilding of historic cultural landscapes lost in natural disasters, this collection of essays by heritage specialists provides a wide range of case-studies and discussions. Each presents responses to crises and lessons learned, in order to extrapolate general guidelines for future actions by politicians, architects and planners in reconstructing buildings. The book also looks beyond disaster and war, noting how authenticity bears on political intentions and image building, exploring how reconstruction is used to tell a political or historical story, so conditioning the ways in which the built environment is perceived and appreciated by its users. This is not just about the buildings as bricks and mortar, but about perceptions of identity and the social and historical values which buildings and spaces embody for a richly diverse population. This book will be valuable to all who are concerned with heritage as practitioners or consumers, particularly those concerned with reconstruction and the creation of authentic places and experiences: architects, architectural historians, town planners, preservationists, conservationists, and those involved in heritage management and material culture.

Download or read book Military Airlift written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a legislative requirement, GAO reviewed the Department of Defense's (DOD) C-17 aircraft program, focusing on: (1) whether the proposed settlement with the contractor is in the government's best interest; and (2) alternatives to the C-17 program. GAO found that: (1) significant doubts remain about the C-17 program's cost-effectiveness and credibility because of cost increases, poor contractor performance, operational deficiencies, and lengthy schedule delays; (2) the proposed settlement with the prime contractor is not in the government's best interest because the exact cost of resolving its and the contractor's claims cannot be determined and the prime contractor's costs may be significantly overstated; (3) although Congress has directed DOD to identify alternatives that would reduce program costs and meet its airlift requirements, DOD has not determined the minimum number of C-17 aircraft needed for its operations and delayed action on the C-17 program until 1995; (4) delaying action until 1995 would unnecessarily add $5 billion to the total program cost because most of the benefits from the contractor's management improvements will not be realized until 1996; and (5) DOD needs to establish specific cost, schedule, and performance criteria to evaluate the contractor's performance and determine whether more than 40 aircraft are needed.
