Can unpretentious, cheap buildings erected rapidly by design and build contractors, satisfy users?
"Talk is cheap; buildings are expensive," as he puts it, so bricks and mortar are as reliable a primary source for the historian as any written document.
Why do these companies choose to base themselves in London, paying as much as £100 per square foot for space, when they could fill up "lovely cheap buildings north of the Watford Gap"?
Developers would rather build a cheap building and sell it on, leaving society to pay the financial, as well as the environmental costs.
Seated in one of the few shady spots in her yard, she details what she would like to obtain for her family: a decent wage, enough to eat, a health service and cheap building materials so everyone can have a home.
This approach potentially offers access to this class of chiral molecules in three steps from the extremely cheap building blocks acrylonitrile and methyl-ketones; we encourage researchers to improve on our efforts in this potentially useful but currently flawed process.
The new compounds have been synthesized in only three synthetic steps from cheap building blocks and in high yields, thus turning to be promising drug candidates in the development of cheaper HCV treatments.
The material, a crystalline organic compound made from cheap building blocks, came about as a "happy accident," says Samuel Stupp, a chemist at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, who headed the new study along with fellow Northwestern chemist Fraser Stoddart.
An example of a rather unique, but not yet viable, application of these catalysts is the delta lactone synthesis described; this potentially offers access to this class of molecules in three steps from the extremely cheap building blocks acrylonitrile and methyl-ketones.
The resource scarcity, energy problems, and pollution resulting from the use of conventional building materials, in addition to the rising costs of construction and transportation fuels are all factors driving many countries to consider low impact, cheap building methods that are environmentally friendly and appropriate for use in the modern context.
Cities should invest in good spatial organization that has more impact than just making a terrible cheap building, which you see a lot of.
