Note: Most life tables span more than one year, however for ease of use this article uses the census year as the point of reference for each life table. For example, life table 3 spans from 1838 to 1854 but 1851 is used to plot life expectancy.
The average UK Lifespan has increased since the industrial revolution period.
Reasons for a longer Life Expectancy
The reasons; ‘needs’; for the lifespan to increase can be determined to be.
Better Food Supply
Better Nutrition
Improved Heath care
Improved Hygiene
Improved Sanitation
Increased personal wealth
Increased government spending as a percentage of the gross domestic product
Increased welfare state provisions

The Fundamental of the Architecture of Human Life Expectancy can be extended to include the reasons; the ;needs’; for a longer life expectancy.
Populations needs are provided to ensure the population has more environment, resources and energy to exist and create more populations.
Hierarchy
All things in the universe are parts of an absolute a single hierarchy.
All human group or societies follow the [pattern of the universe and develop within a hierarchy.
The hierarchy comes into contact with all levels and ages of human society.
Each hierarchy is formed out of those who sense, understand, record and communicate the local, repeating, seasonal context.
This knowledge is passed to the population by hierarchy controlled communication systems.
The stability of the society is perpetuated by the hierarchy providing constant solutions to maintain the populations needs.
Once the needs are achieved the population converts its needs into values. The sum of their values creates a knowledge of quality. The sum of their qualities creates an appreciation of beauty. The sum of their appreciations of beauty creates cultures. Cultures form societies.
The Fundamental of the Architecture of Human Life Expectancy can be extended to include the reasons for a longer life expectancy and hierarchy.
Populations needs are provided through a hierarchy to ensure the population has more environment, resources and energy to exist and create more populations.
Architecture.
The Architecture; ideas; behind these ‘needs’ for a longer life expectancy can be established through a comparison of their components.
A better food and drink supply requires a better transport, retail, storage, agricultural, increased population, more environment, resources and energy.
A better nutrition level requires a better food and drink supply, transport, retail, storage, agricultural increased population, more environment, resources and energy.
An improved health care system requires more hospitals, health care units, local surgeries, chemists, a better transport system, a better health product manufacturing system, increased population, more environment, resources and energy.
An improved hygiene system requires an improved health care system, more hospitals, health care units, local surgeries, chemists, transport, health product manufacturing, increased population, more environment, resources and energy.
An improved sanitation system requires an improved sanitation connection to each dwelling and public building, better waste treatment, disposal, transport, increased population, more environment, resources and energy.
Increased personal wealth requires higher wages, profit, employment, need, increased population, more environment, resources and energy.
Increased government spending as a percentage of the gross domestic product requires more taxes, investment, increased population, more environment, resources and energy.
Increased welfare state provisions requires more taxes, investment, increased population, more environment, resources and energy.
The repeating Architecture; ideas; ‘needs’ components are
Increased population and more environment, resources and energy.
The Fundamental of the Architecture of Human Life Expectancy can be extended to include the reasons for a longer life expectancy, hierarchy and Architecture.
Populations needs are provided through a hierarchy to ensure the population has more environment, resources and energy to exist and create more populations to ensure a longer life expectancy.
Types of Human Society
Hunter Gathering to Pastoral
To move a society from a hunter gatherer lifestyle to pastoral and increase their life expectancy it is necessary to create.
Population, land, hierarchy, water supply, food supply, nutrition, health, hygiene, procreation, population, using nomadic, seasonal environment, resources and energy.
Pastoral to Horticultural.
To move a society from a pastoral to horticultural lifestyle and increase their life expectancy it is necessary to create within the original hunter gatherer, pastoral society the additional components (italics).
Population, land, hierarchy, sub-divided hierarchy, water supply, food supply, nutrition, health, hygiene, education, procreation, population, using local, seasonal, environment, resources and energy.
Horticultural to Agricultural.
To move a society from a Horticultural to Agricultural lifestyle and increase their life expectancy it is necessary to create within the original hunter gatherer, pastoral, horticultural society the additional components (italics).
Population, land, hierarchy, military, police, religion, sub-divided hierarchy, water supply, food supply, nutrition, health, hygiene, education, sciences, manufacturing, retail, procreation, population, using local, seasonal, environment, resources and energy.
Agricultural to Industrial.
To move a society from an Agricultural to Industrial lifestyle and increase their life expectancy it is necessary to create within the original hunter gatherer, pastoral, horticultural, agricultural society the additional components (italics).
Population, land, hierarchy, military, police, religion, sub-divided hierarchy, water supply, food supply, nutrition, health, hygiene, education, sciences, manufacturing, mass manufacturing, mass warehousing, mass retail, mass distribution, procreation, population, using local to international environment, resources and energy.
Industrial to Post-industrial.
To move a society from an Industrial to Post-industrial lifestyle and increase their life expectancy it is necessary to create within the original hunter gatherer, pastoral, horticultural, agricultural, industrial society the additional components (italics).
Population, land, hierarchy, military, police, religion, sub-divided hierarchy, water supply, food supply, nutrition, health, hygiene, education, sciences, manufacturing, mass manufacturing, mass warehousing, mass retail, mass distribution, procreation, mass communication, services, population, using international environment, resources and energy.
The future society can also be examined in the same manner.
Post-industrial to Renewable (Depletion)
To move a society from a Post-industrial to Renewable (Depletion) lifestyle and increase their life expectancy it is necessary to create within the original hunter gatherer, pastoral, horticultural, agricultural, industrial, Post Industrial society the additional components (italics)..
Population, land, hierarchy, military, police, religion, sub-divided hierarchy, local hierarchy, local settlements, local water supply, local food supply, local nutrition, local health, local hygiene, local education, local sciences, local manufacturing, local warehousing, local retail, local distribution, local procreation, local communication, local services, local population using local, seasonal environment, resources and energy.

Conclusion
The Fundamental precept of the Architecture of Human Life Expectancy can be proposed as.
Populations need to create more Populations.
This has been extended to.
Populations needs are provided through a hierarchy to ensure the population has more environment, resources and energy to exist and create more populations to ensure a longer life expectancy.
All of the components of a society can be developed by a hierarchy from physical needs to allow the population to create values, qualities, appreciations of beauty and cultures in order to create their own adaptable, evolutionary societies and new populations.
Any society form also requires the use of more environment, resources and energy.
All human societies have been an evolution of these principles up to the Post Industrial to Renewable (Depletion) society.
The Renewable (Depletion) society is having to localize the hierarchy and stagnate the population to population sequence in order to stabilize the society in the face of ever decreasing environment, resources and energy.
The future Fundamental precept of the Architecture of Human Life Expectancy can therefore be proposed as.
Local populations create local hierarchy to maintain local renewable incentives to create local solutions to maintain local needs of environment, resources and energy to maintain sufficient local populations and to ensure a longer life expectancy.
