Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Age-Friendly Engineering for the Built Environment advocates for inclusive, efficient, and resilient localities by exploring the pivotal role of engineers and addressing challenges. The book considers a broad range of topics specific to the built environment and its dwellers-from well-lit walkways, accessible buildings, pace-sensitive traffic lighting, easily navigable transportation infrastructure and services, aging-in-place housing, multigeneration cultural facilities, wearable devices, AI-powered sensors, and smart assistive equipment to optimize health and safety. Details on the latest advancements, actionable insights from case studies, and application examples strengthen the coverage and amplify its value for advanced students, researchers, practitioners, and other technical stakeholders.
The book emphasizes the integration of human-centric planning and design approaches with innovative technologies to enhance accessibility, safety, and quality of life for an aging population as they navigate daily activities, interact with their surroundings, and maintain independence within evolving urban landscapes.
