Albert Christian and Phyllis Jane Schauer persistently strive to lead a life of service to the Lord. Over the years, they have gleaned many lessons on their life journey, and they share them in "A Lasting Legacy," a volume that is meant to serve as a guiding light for future generations.

The Shauers provide the tools to give families strength, courage, patience, hope and peace of mind. the biblically based messages, augmented by examples of their personal experience, explore a range of topics important to today's families, such as faith, hope, love and compassion, prayer, wisdom, trust in the Lord, the Bible, marriage, friends, balancing life, work, and money.

"A Lasting Legacy" shares foundation truths and lessons that form the vital base of a healthy and fulfilling life. Through moments of pain, disappointments, loss and frustration, a firm belief and following of God an His teachings can be the key to moving forward with joy and hope.

Die Gebäudetechnik steht vor einem bedeutenden Paradigmenwechsel. Getrieben durch die Integrale Planung und verknüpft mit der Methodik des Building Information Modelings (BIM) sowie den neuen Möglichkeiten der Digitalisierung (Stichwort: Internet of Things; IoT), tritt die ganzheitliche Betrachtung von digital unterstützten Prozessen in den Fokus und erfordert von Fachplanern eine neue Handlungsmaxime.  Vor diesem Hintergrund beleuchtet dieses Fachbuch die konzeptionellen und rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen, innerhalb derer sich dieser Paradigmenwechsel vollziehen wird. Danach gilt es zukünftig mehr denn je, die teils konkurrierenden Schutzziele wie Energieeffizienz oder Erhalt der Trinkwassergüte mit zeitgemäßen Komfortansprüchen bei zu vertretenden Kosten in Einklang zu bringen. Aufbauend auf den aktuellsten wissenschaftlichen und technischen Erkenntnissen werden dafür planerische und technologische Lösungswege aufgezeigt, wie sie heute schon praxisgerecht bei der Planung und in einem bedarfsgerechten und hocheffizienten Anlagenbetrieb umgesetzt werden können.

Launched in May 2000, the aims of the COST C12 cooperative action were:

• to develop, combine and disseminate new technical engineering technologies
• to improve the quality of urban buildings
• to propose new technical solutions to architects and planners
• to reduce the disturbance caused by construction in urban areas and improve urban quality of life.

This volume contains the proceedings of the COST C12 final conference held in Innsbruck, Austria from January 20-22 2005. The book reflects not only the outcome of the four yearsa (TM) work of the cooperative, but also the contributions made by other international experts at the conference, focused on three broad themes: mixed building technology; structural integrity under exceptional actions; and urban design.
