12 pp.; 2009
Public officials have limited funding to meet a growing range of services for citizens. They must create facilities that project a strong, reassuring and attractive image within their budget. They also must emphasize sustainable design, low maintenance and long service life.Public facilities must provide a variety of functions, serving employees and public needs in efficient, accessible but attractive ways. The buildings must be adaptable. As needs arise, the building must be capable of meeting the change.Designs employing cast-in-place reinforced concrete and precast concrete allow buildings to remain flexible, aesthetically pleasing, cost effective and functionally efficient. Officials who make use of rein-forced concrete’s array of benefits ensure they meet the ever-changing needs that arise today as well as those to come.
