By means of I-DEAS software,taking quality as object function,this paper evaluates and optimizes the dimension parameters of mid-mudsill steel structure of an electrostatic precipitator.
His CityHall in Dallas, a boldly cantilevered wedge of glass and steel facing the commercial district, reflected the vaunting Texan pride he found there.
Construction experts say that wooden buildings can be constructed at a greater speed than ones of concrete and steel and the process, it seems, is quieter.

In total it is expected to generate 96% fewer carbon emissions than a steel building and its goal is to be LEED Platinum - that's the highest rating that the US Green Building Council offers.
