Audio Interview with Mr. C.J. Rayner Whiteley
No full textAudio - Mr. Whiteley recounts the story of delivering the message of the flood of 1904. He took seventeen hours by horse to travel from Perryvale to Edmonton. Billy Loutit took the same message by foot arriving in Edmonton about the same time. Mr. Whiteley discusses early settlers, farming, homesteading and businesses. He has many anecdotes about life and people living in Athabasca at the start of the twentieth century. He freighted for ten years with the Hudson's Bay Company and also discusses early farming prices and technology extensivelyInformative Interview of Mr. C.J.

The Actors' Perceptions and Expectations of their Roles in BIM-based Collaboration
No full textThe inter-organisational collaboration with Building Information Modelling (BIM) is one of the hottest topics in construction sector nowadays. The implementation of BIM is a complex inter-organisational process, and the sharing of information among numerous actors from multi-disciplinary backgrounds may affect the actors’ role perception and performance. This study offers insights into the BIM roles of various actors by analysing a BIM-based project carried out by an integrated partnership across many tiers. The analysis identified inconsistencies between the actors' perceptions and their partners’ expectations of their BIM roles. Inconsistencies in BIM roles were more related to soft rather than hard (domain- or technical) skills. Mismatches were found in the architect's role, as it was deemed necessary to be more domain- and BIM-related, contrary to their perceptions. Likewise, the suppliers' role called for an enhanced BIM orientation. The paper concludes with set of suggestions for increasing the joint responsibility and supporting the multi-actor collaboration.Design & Construction ManagementSustainable Housing Transformatio
Access envelopes : thekeniki e ncha ya ho beha mmapeng mekhoa e bobebo ya transpoto le merero ya bolulo
No full textThe article describes the application of a GIS-based accessibility measurement
technique suited to assessing the impact of both transport and spatial development
strategies on the location-specific affordability of job access for poor households.
The access envelope methodology extends existing accessibility measures by:
explicitly accounting for public transport service patterns; including transport costs
as a dimension of accessibility; and deriving a single intuitive measure of access
reflecting the potential income earnable by a person living in a certain location, after
paying for transport. Several case studies from the City of Tshwane are presented,
illustrating its use for assessing spatial integration and transport initiatives. The cases
demonstrate how Tshwane’s emerging Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system selectively
enhances accessibility to jobs, although its marginal accessibility benefit is reduced
by the part-duplication of existing rail lines to core employment areas. While the
BRT improves the net earning potential of low-income workers in certain areas, its
ultimate benefits will significantly depend on its achievement of network effects –
especially via the reduction of first/last-kilometer trip costs – and its ability to leverage
higher density development within walking distance of the route. Accordingly, results
obtained with the access-envelopes method carry significant implications for current
transport planning in the main metro cities.Die toepassing van ’n metode om die toeganklikheidsimpakte van beide vervoeren
ruimtelike ontwikkelingstrategieë op die haalbaarheid van werksgeleenthede
onder lae-inkomste huishoudings te beoordeel, word bespreek. Die metode is
gegrond op Geografiese Inligtingstelsels (GIS), en verbeter bestaande metodes
om toeganklikheid te meet deur openbare vervoerdienste direk in ag te neem;
vervoeronkostes as a dimensie van toeganklikheid in ag te neem; en ’n enkele
intuïtiewe indeks te ontwikkel om die potensiële inkomste van ’n person wat op ’n
bepaalde plek woon, te bereken, inaggenome die koste en tyd wat aan vervoer
bestee word. Gevallestudies van die Stad Tshwane word aangebied om die
toepassing van die metode te illustreer. Die gevalle toon die mate waartoe Tshwane
se opkomende Snelbusstelsel toeganklikheid tot bepaalde werksgebiede kan
verbeter, ten spyte daarvan dat die inkrementele voordeel beperk word deur die feit
dat die busstelsel bestaande treindienste gedeeltelik dupliseer, veral ten opsigte van
bestaande kerngebiede in die stad. Die snelbus verbeter wel die netto potensiële
inkomste van werkers, maar sy voordele sal uiteindelik afhang van die mate waartoe
die kostes van die eerste/laaste kilometer van ritte verminder word, en die mate
waarin verdigting en ontwikkeling in areas wat binne loopafstand van die roete is,
behaal word.Serapa sena se hlalosa tshebediso ya thekeniki ya ho fumana sohloe ha bobebe ka

Optimal traffic control at railway junctions
No full textConflict occurs when two or more trains approach the same junction within a specified time. Such conflicts result in delays. Current practices to assign the right of way at\ud
junctions achieve orderly and safe passage of the trains, but do not attempt to reduce the delays. A traffic controller developed in the paper assigns right of way to impose minimum total weighted delay on the trains. The traffic flow model and\ud
the optimisation technique used in this controller are described. Simulation studies of the performance of the controller are given

No full textStrange Fellah! Review of Philip Butterss, An Unsentimental Bloke: The Life and Work of C.J. Dennis
No full textC.J. Dennis, author of The Songs of a Sentimental Bloke (1915), was once considered the unofficial poet laureate of Australia. Throughout his career he was erroneously conflated with his famous character 'the Bloke' in the public imagination. 'Many have imagined him as a sentimental bloke', argues Philip Butterss, 'an easygoing fellow with a naïve and slightly romantic view of the world'(1). Since three previous biographical works have the word 'sentimental' in the title, Butterss' decision to add the 'un' to 'sentimental' immediately signals his intention to examine the darker side of Dennis
