Криминалистическая характеристика хищений в сфере строительства представляет собой систематизированное описание криминалистически значимых признаков данной группы преступлений (хищения, совершенного путем мошенничества, а также хищения, совершенного путем присвоения или растраты). Криминалистическая характеристика хищения в строительстве должна состоять из криминалистически значимых элементов, описывающих данную группу преступлений и позволяющих следователю, опираясь на нее, осуществить качественное расследование. Знание следователем содержания криминалистической характеристики конкретного вида или группы преступлений и ее практическое использование позволяют ему в условиях дефицита информации на первоначальном этапе расследования минимизировать риск принятия неверных решений и совершения ошибочных действий. Элементами криминалистической характеристики хищений в строительной сфере являются: 1) сведения о способе хищения в строительстве (включающие в себя сведения о способах подготовки, совершения и сокрытия преступления); 2) сведения о характерных типичных следах (материальных и идеальных) совершенного или совершаемого хищения в строительстве. Знание содержания именно этих элементов следователем на первоначальном этапе расследования хищений в строительной сфере обеспечат верный выбор направления расследования и оперативное проведение следственных действий по обнаружению и изъятию доказательств, сведя к минимуму их возможную утрату. Criminalistic characteristics of theft in the construction sector is a systematic description of criminally significant features of this group of crimes (theft committed by fraud, as well as theft committed by appropriation or embezzlement). Criminalistic characteristics of theft in construction sector should consist of criminally significant elements that describe this group of crimes and allow the investigator, based on it, to carry out a qualitative investigation. The investigator's knowledge of the content of the forensic characteristics of a particular type or group of crimes and its practical use allow him to minimize the risk of making incorrect decisions and committing erroneous actions in the context of a lack of information at the initial stage of the investigation. The elements of criminalistic characteristics of theft in the construction sector are: 1) information about the method of theft in construction (including information about the methods of preparation, Commission and concealment of the crime); 2) information about the characteristic typical traces (material and ideal) of theft committed or committed in construction. Knowledge of the content of these elements by the investigator at the initial stage of the investigation of theft in the construction sector will ensure the correct choice of the direction of investigation and prompt conduct of investigative actions to detect and remove evidence, minimizing their possible loss.

The referral is the key source of information that enables radiologists and radiographers to provide quality services. However, the frequency of suboptimal referrals is widely reported. This research reviews the literature to illuminate the challenges suboptimal referrals present to the delivery of care in radiology departments. The concept of suboptimal referral includes information, that is; missing, insufficient, inconsistent, misleading, hard to interpret or wrong. The research uses the four ethical principles of non-maleficence, beneficence, Autonomy and Justice as an analytic framework.Suboptimal referrals can cause harm by hindering safe contrast-media administration, proper radiation protection by justification of procedures, and compassionate patient care. Suboptimal referrals also hinder promoting patient benefits from the correct choice of imaging modality and protocol, an optimal performed examination, and an accurate radiology report. Additionally, patient autonomy is compromised from the lack of information needed to facilitate benefit–risk communication. Finally, suboptimal referrals challenge justice based on lack of reasonable patient prioritising and the unfairness caused by unnecessary examinations.These findings illuminate how suboptimal referrals can inhibit good health and well-being for patients in relation to safety, missed opportunities, patient anxiety and dissatisfaction. The ethical challenges identified calls for solutions. Referral-decision support tools and artificial intelligence may improve referral quality, when implemented. Strategies addressing efforts of radiology professionals are inevitable, including gatekeeping, shared decision-making and inter-professional communication; thereby raising awareness of the importance of good referral quality and promoting commitment to ethical professional conduct.

Since 2016 Myanmar has undergone political and economic reforms. A movement to develop the country with economic growth is a significant matter for the country. In Myanmar, the construction sector is a main driving force for the country’s economy in terms of investments and job opportunities of citizens. Electricity used for the construction industry leads to the insufficient energy output of the country. Moreover, waste and pollution are inevitable as a result of Myanmar’s economic growth. Green building development in Myanmar is in its initial stage but currently lacks governmental, or voluntary support to devise appropriate rules and regulations for green construction. In particular, the lack of awareness among developers, stakeholders, architects, engineers, contractors, employees and the public about green building has worsened the development progress. This paper reveals why green building development is needed in Myanmar and provides an overview of the current level of green growth in Myanmar. In addition, this paper compares widely used seven existing environmental assessment tools around the world – LEED, BREEAM, Green Mark, Green Star, Three Star – Chinese Green Building Label-3, CASBEE, and HQE as references for the development of green building rating tool with the view to identify aspects that are compatible with the local conditions of Myanmar.

Despite the great diversity of available Arabica coffee cultivars it is observed that, even when presenting different phenotypes of interest, new cultivars are adopted at a slow pace by coffee growers. One possible reason may be the lack of information on the performance of these genotypes in different regions and culture conditions. The aim this work was to verify the performance of twelve coffee cultivars in relation to morphoagronomic characteristics at initial stage of development, as well as the beans quality, in a condition of typical cultivation of the Cerrado. The trial was carried out in the municipality of Monte Carmelo - MG, in randomized block design, with four replicates. Morphoagronomic characteristics were evaluated 15 months after the implantation of the crop. The productivity and, subsequently, the quality of the beans, were evaluated at 18 months. Statistical analyzes were performed using the Genes software. The data were submitted to analysis of variance. The F test was used to determine the significance of treatments. The means were grouped by the Scott-Knott test (1974) at 5% probability and the experimental precision was verified by the estimation of the experimental variation coefficient (CV) and the selective accuracy. The sensory attributes were evaluated in a radar diagram, called “Sensogram”. Genetic variability was observed among cultivars for the vegetative characters. The cultivars Catuaí Vermelho IAC 144 and MGS Aranãs stood out as more productive, with a high percentage of sieve 16 and above and low percentage of grain type mocha. All the cultivars stood out as special, with emphasis on the cultivar Bourbon Amarelo IAC J10 in the wet processing and Catuaí Vermelho IAC 144 in the natural processing.

The growth in demand for the clean habitation environment and the need for the sustainable energy technologies lead to the development of eco-friendly architecture in the world. Eco-friendly design is beginning to play an important role in the design and construction of civil buildings. The article focuses on topical issues of energy-efficient architecture and environmental design in Russia. Statistics show that the energy-efficient construction sector in Russia is developing at a relatively slow rate, and “green architecture” buildings are not wide spread, eco-friendly architecture in Russia is only on the initial stage of the growth. However, the demand for ecological buildings has a positive trend. The article indicates the main reasons impeding the growth of “green architecture” in Russia: state policy and legislation; consumer attitude; or those linked to specific environmental economic prerequisites. The lack of eco-friendly education among the population and, accordingly, the lack of knowledge of Green architecture benefits are also perceived as a problem by the authors. The authors make recommendations to stimulate the development of “green” architecture in Russia and improve the positions of the country on this issue in the global ranking.

The parameters and assessment of the state economic policy measures to eliminate the economic shocks of the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan from Jan., 2020 till Jul., 2021 are carried out. It was revealed that the economic policy of responding to the shocks of the COVID-19 pandemic was timely and adequate to the current crisis. It was confirmed that in 2020, compared to other developed countries, it was possible to effectively use its health care system in the fight against COVID-19 and reduce economic losses in the initial stage of the pandemic. This was due to the correct choice of both epidemiological strategies and monetary and structural policies. It is also confirmed that the package of anti-crisis measures turned out to be one of the largest in the world in terms of volume and that in the coming years its implementation will lead to a sharp increase in the budget deficit and public debt. It was found that timely measures of fiscal policy within the framework of additional budgets and monetary policy of the Bank of Japan, in general, led to the return of the Japanese economy by the second quarter of 2021 to a development trajectory with positive growth rates (about 2% a year). However, the Japanese economic recovery remains fragile due to the low rates of vaccination of the population and restrictions on the pandemic, which are holding back the activity of private sector of the economy.

Utilizing sophisticated tools in carbonate rocks is crucial to interpretating the origin and evolution of diagenetic fluids from the Upper Jurassic carbonate rocks along the Zagros thrust-fold Belt. The origin and evolution of the paleofluids utilizing in-situ strontium isotope ratios by high resolution laser ablation ICP-MS, integrated with stable isotopes, petrography and fieldwork are constrained. Due to the lack of information on the origin of the chemistry of the fluids, the cements that filled the Jurassic carbonate rocks were analysed from the fractures and pores. This allowed us to trace the origin of fluids along a diagenetic sequence, which is defined at the beginning from the sediment deposition (pristine facies). Based on petrography and geochemistry (oxygen-, carbon- and strontium-isotope compositions) two major diagenetic stages involving the fluids were identified. The initial stage, characterized by negative δ13CVPDB values (reaching −10.67‰), involved evaporated seawater deposited with the sediments, mixed with the input of freshwater. The second stage involved a mixture of meteoric water and hot fluids that precipitated as late diagenetic cements. The late diagenetic cements have higher depleted O–C isotope compositions compared to seawater. The diagenetic cements display a positive covariance and were associated with extra- δ13CVPDB and δ18OVPDB values (−12.87‰ to −0.82‰ for δ18OVPDB and −11.66‰ to −1.40‰ for δ13CVPDB respectively). The distinction between seawater and the secondary fluids is also evident in the 87Sr/86Sr of the host limestone versus cements. The limestones have 87Sr/86Sr up to 0.72859, indicative of riverine input, while the cements have 87Sr/86Sr of (0.70772), indicative of hot fluid circulation interacting with meteoric water during late diagenesis.


This paper presents the investigation of client-related factor towards delay in public projects by applying qualitative research method approach. Semi-structured interview was conducted involving contractor, architect and consultant with experience in project delay. The investigation managed to discover factors of delay which were ranked by using content analysis. The most significant client-related factor is a poor planning at initial stage by client, followed by late of payment by client, lack of awareness by client on latest progress done by staff, improper consultant selection by client, client select contractor with a weak cash flow, poor attitude of contractor selected by client, late of payment by client, lack of knowledge by client, new proposal request by new hired officer and lack of financial strength. This finding is very useful for practitioners in construction sector and very important for practitioners to be aware on these factors and focus to improve the cause of delay among client.

Важливою складовою собівартості продукції харчових виробництв є елементи забезпечення їх безпечного виробництва, одним з яких являється внутрішній протипожежний водопровід, який обов’язковий для встановлення в приміщеннях харчових виробництв з відповідною категорією за вибухопожежною та пожежною небезпекою, ступенем вогнестійкості та об’ємом виробничого корпусу. З введенням в дію ДБН В 2.5-64:2012 «Внутрішній водопровід та каналізація» кожна шафа окрім встановленого в ній пожежного кран-комплекту діаметром 50 або 65 мм, обов’язково комплектується додатковим пожежним кран-комплектом діаметром 25 або 33 мм, який призначений для швидкого введення вогнегасної речовини в початковій стадії розвитку пожежі, а тому забезпечує зниження збитків від неї. Додаткові кран-комплекти комплектуються рукавом (довжина рукава – до 30 м, діаметр рукава – 25 мм або 33 мм, тип рукава – напівжорсткий) та розпорошувачем (діаметр випускного отвору розпорошувача від 4 до 12 мм). До переваг таких пристроїв відносять невеликі габарити, застосування спеціальних насадок розпорошувача дозволяє створювати дрібнодисперсний струмінь води, який не пошкоджує оточуючи речи та обладнання, гнучкий рукав комплекту дозволяє обійти технологічні установки, що зустрічаються на шляху, установка перекривного пристрою дозволяє перервати роботу в будь-який момент і відновити її за необхідності, вартість вогнегасної речовини – води, як і самої установки – невелика. В залежності від умов використання додаткового пожежного кран-комплекту різні характеристики його складових можуть забезпечити підвищення або зниження ефективності його роботи. Тому запропоновано спосіб визначення характеристик складових додаткового пожежного кран-комплекту для конкретних умов його експлуатації. Вірний вибір параметрів складових дозволить з урахуванням гідродинамічних характеристик системи, що забезпечує роботу таких пристроїв, з найменшими економічними втратами забезпечити успішне гасіння пожежі та знизити збитки від неї. An important component of the cost of food products is the elements of ensuring their safe production, one of which is the internal fire water supply, which is obligatory for installation in the premises of food production enterprises with the appropriate category for fire and fire hazard, fire resistance and the volume of the production building. With the introduction of the DBN V 2.5-64:2012 "Internal plumbing and sewage system", each cabinet, except for installed fire faucet with a diameter of 50 or 65 mm, necessarily completes an additional fire faucet with a diameter of 25 or 33 mm, which is designed for the rapid introduction of extinguishing agent in the initial stage of the development of the fire, and therefore provides a reduction of losses from it. Additional fire faucets are completed with a sleeve (length of the sleeve - up to 30 m, diameter of the sleeve - 25 mm or 33 mm, type of sleeve - semi-rigid) and the sprayer (diameter of the outlet of the sprayer from 4 to 12 mm). The advantages of such devices include small dimensions. The use of special spray nozzles allows you to create a fine splash of water that does not damage the surroundings of speech and equipment. The flexible sleeve of the kit allows you to bypass technological installations that are found on the track. The installation of the overlapping device allows you to interrupt the work at any time and restore it as needed. The cost of extinguishing agent and the installation itself is small. Depending on the conditions of the use of an additional fire faucet, the various characteristics of its components can provide an increase or decrease in the efficiency of its operation. Therefore, a method of determining the characteristics of components of an additional fire faucet for the specific conditions of its operation is proposed. The correct choice of parameters of components will allow, taking into account the hydrodynamic characteristics of the system, ensuring the operation of such devices, with the least economic losses, ensure the successful extinguishing of the fire and reduce losses from it.

LABURPENA: Natura 2000 Europako sare ekologikoa da, habitat naturalak eta espezieak babesteko helburua duen Habitat Zuzentarauak diseinatutakoa. Sorreran, hainbat fase desberdintzen dira. Hasierakoan, estatu kideek sarearen barne egon daitezkeen lekuak hautatzen dituzte, herrialdearentzat duten garrantzia balioetsita, eta Batzordeari leku horien zerrenda aurkezten diote. Ondoren, Batzordeak leku horiek sarean sartu edo ez erabakitzen du, daukaten garrantzi komunitarioaren arabera. Lan honetan, estatu kideek hasierako fasean lekuen zerrendak osatzeko daukaten hautemate errealeko marjina aztertzen da, bai eta Batzordearen ondorengo esku hartzea ere, informazio-eskasiak erabat baldintzatzen duena. Era berean, sarea Gipuzkoan zein egoeratan dagoen aztertzen da, duela gutxi leku batzuk Babes Bereziko Eremu izendatu baitira. RESUMEN: Natura 2000 es la red ecológica europea diseñada por la Directiva Hábitats, norma que persigue un objetivo de conservación de hábitats naturales y de especies. En su creación se distinguen varias etapas. La inicial consiste en una selección por los Estados miembros de los lugares que pueden integrar la red, evaluando su importancia nacional y proponiendo una lista a la Comisión, Institución que seguidamente efectúa una nueva selección de lugares mediante una evaluación de la importancia comunitaria de los mismos. En este trabajo se analiza el margen de apreciación real para configurar las listas nacionales de lugares del que disponen los Estados miembros en esa etapa inicial, y la posterior intervención de la Comisión, condicionada por su falta de información. También se describe la situación de la red en Gipuzkoa, cuando su creación llega a la etapa final con la reciente designación de algunos lugares como Zona Especiales de Conservación. ABSTRACT: Natura 2000 is the European ecologic network designed by the Habitats Directive and it pursues the objective of conservation of natural habitats and species. In its creation, several stages are to be distinguished. The initial one lies in one selection of the sites that might be part of the network elaborated by the Member States, assessing their national relevance and proposing a list to the Commission, and this institution will subsequently do a new selection of sites after an evaluation of those. In this work we analyze the real margin of appreciation when elaborating the national lists of sites by the Member States in that initial stage, and the following intervention of the Commission, which is constrained by its lack of information. It is also described the situation of the network in Gipuzkoa, when its creation is at the last stage with the recent designation of some sites as Special Areas of Conservation.
