Certification & AP Internship Training Program

While the accreditation process may be tedious and complicated, we at PTL Exam Prep are doing our best to make it easy for you to gain LEED Project Management Experience and qualify for the LEED AP examination. We have developed a course that allows participants to work at their own pace in an online environment, from any computer. It's a very flexible and can be completed within 6 to 8 hours. This course is designed to fulfill a major prerequisite for the Green Associate and LEED AP specialty accreditation exam. PTL Exam Prep's program covers: So, odds are by now that if you're interested in LEED, you've begun to read through the LEED Candidate Handbook, and noticed the requirements for the LEED AP exam… specifically where it says you must have LEED project involvement experience some time within the last two years to be eligible just to TAKE the exam.

2013 Competition HighRise. eVolo Magazine is pleased to announce the winners of the 2013 Skyscraper Competition.

2013 Competition HighRise

The award was established in 2006 to recognize outstanding ideas for vertical living. Since then, the publication has received more than 5,000 projects that envision the future of building high. These ideas, through the novel use of technology, materials, programs, aesthetics, and spatial organizations, challenge the way we understand vertical architecture and its relationship with the natural and built environments. In 2013, the Jury, formed by leaders of the architecture and design fields selected 3 winners and 24 honorable mentions. eVolo Magazine received 625 projects from all continents and 83 different countries.

The winners were selected for their creativity, ingenuity, and understanding of dynamic and adaptive vertical communities. The first place was awarded to Derek Pirozzi from the United States, for his project “Polar Umbrella”. eVolo Skyscrapers Collector's Edition Book. TheArchitectureRoom. Science Mysteries, Fibonacci Numbers and Golden section in Nature. Golden Ratio & Golden Section : : Golden Rectangle : : Golden Spiral Golden Ratio & Golden Section In mathematics and the arts, two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio between the sum of those quantities and the larger one is the same as the ratio between the larger one and the smaller.

Science Mysteries, Fibonacci Numbers and Golden section in Nature

Expressed algebraically: The golden ratio is often denoted by the Greek letter phi (Φ or φ). The figure of a golden section illustrates the geometric relationship that defines this constant. Golden Rectangle. The Geometry of Bending. OpenStreetMap. Shuttle Radar Topography Mission SRTM NASA. U.S.

Shuttle Radar Topography Mission SRTM NASA

Releases Enhanced Shuttle Land Elevation Data On September 23, 2014, the White House announced that the highest-resolution topographic data generated from NASA's Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) in 2000 was to be released globally by late 2015. The announcement was made at the United Nations Heads of State Climate Summit in New York. Since then the schedule was accelerated, and all global SRTM data have been released.

See the full JPL Release 2014-321. Previously, SRTM data for regions outside the United States were sampled for public release at 3 arc-seconds, which is 1/1200th of a degree of latitude and longitude, or about 90 meters (295 feet). See an index map of the newly available full-resolution data. The new data are available for download from the USGS EROS Data Center - see Public Data Distribution for details. See the Africa image above and its caption at the PIA04965. These additional fly around videos further illustrate SRTM elevation data: SRTM Publication.
