Snake oil mostly disappears. Mechanical and electrical equipment is mostly reliable. Efficient, reliable equipment available in most areas. Major areas of development remain. Design Practice Architects fail to grasp theory, mostly abandon interest.
Engineers expect to solve problem.
Efficiency features selected haphazardly. Glass-box buildings spread, major step backward. Engineers advance in some areas, complain they are not paid for efficient design. Designers lose interest, fail to specify efficient equipment. Fast-track construction interferes with efficient design.
