Serbia's Law on Planning and Building has imposed the topics of energy efficiency in building sector, requiring adequate policy making and providing a starting point for improvement of the current situation in this field. Considering the fact that there are more than 3.200.000 housing units without any statistical classification a need arose for establishing a national building typology as a starting point for further decision making and appropriate activities definition regarding the existing housing stock.After joining EU TABULA (Typology Approach for Building Stock Energy Assessment) project, methodologies and approaches of the European countries have been analysed providing a common experience, at the same illustrating a need for identification and classification of local characteristics. In order to obtain adequate data a comprehensive survey has been conducted, providing a starting point for creation of typology. The National Typology has identified typical "model" buildings and defined the levels of improvement ranging from standard (according to the current law) to the low-energy level. The paper explains the methodology, procedures and local characteristics of the process and gives an insight in the activity describing the problems and potentials of the approach. ; Serbia's Law on Planning and Building has imposed the topics of energy efficiency in building sector, requiring adequate policy making and providing a starting point for improvement of the current situation in this field.

This is a retrospective descriptive study, which aimed
at knowing the characteristics of traffic accidents by motor vehicles
in Maringá between 2005 and 2008. For the study, run over victims
of traffic accidents in Maringá from 2005 to 2008 were considered,
using data from the firefighter's list of occurrences - 5th Fire Combat
Team. 1841 victims were identified. From the total number of victims,
the number of incidents recorded (1486) was studied: 399 happened in
2005, 376 in 2006, 361 in 2007 and 350 in 2008. It was noted a decreas-ing trend in incidence over the years. A predominance of male victims
in the age range 15 to 24 was noticed. In the years of the study, the ac-cidents occurred mostly between May and July, early in the afternoon
and evening (6pm to 8:59pm). These results confirm those observed in
other studies, highlighting the need to implement preventive measures
through intersectoral action and contribution of other studies using
other methods and other information sources.
