Environmental Design for Public Projects, supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF) RANN Program, is relevant today as when it was first published. This book includes public projects such as those providing water, transportation, and energy. Key themes are: (1) civil engineers plan and design large-scale projects that provide the essential infrastructure for society; (2) these projects have evolved in scale and often they dominate human communities and the environment; and (3) the negative impacts of public projects that affect quality-of-life values may be mitigated by integrating the talents of professionals in other disciplines such as architecture, landscape architecture, sociology, welfare economics, ecology, urban planning, law, management, and politics in collaboration with civil engineers. Authors include some 20 professionals from these various disciplines who provided guidelines and examples on how their discipline expertise may be integrated into the outcomes of large-scale public projects. Additionally, 30 other professionals were involved in critiquing the 16 chapters. 3
