Bair, Howard V.; Leland, Henry – 1967
To investigate the appropriate design and utilization of physical facilities being constructed as a rehabilitation center, a variety of centers was examined. Conclusions were that flexibility in construction of the physical plant, including nonpermanent walls and fixtures was necessary; program planning should be included in architectural…

Loudon, A. G.; Petherbridge, P. – 1968
Public building air conditioning systems, which use constant and varying heat and cooling loads, are compared and investigated. Experiments indicated that constant temperature controls based on outside air temperature alone were inefficient. Ventilating a building with outside air and the methods of doing so are cited as being the most economical…

Caudill, Rowlett and Scott, Architects, Houston, TX. – 1969
The design of Santa Fe Junior College is examined, beginning with the development of an educational philosophy. Subsequent design decisions are based largely upon this philosophy which emphasizes the development of the individual student and the fulfillment of his needs. Further, the need for flexibility is recognized and is an important aspect of…

Shear, George E. – 1971
Too often building facilities use yesterday's materials and methods to solve yeaterday's educational problems. The solution is to use newly available technologies to build facilities that will respond to changing patterns in education and reduce the frustrating amounts of time and money lavished on each project. The most important consideration…
