Abstract

Ce guide de construction de passerelles piétonnes présente les tendances actuelles, les exigences structurelles et fonctionnelles fondamentales, les différents systèmes porteurs, les domaines d'application des divers matériaux et certains aspects économiques. La latitude de création étant plus importante que pour un pont routier ou ferroviaire, l’intégration au site est primordiale que ce soit en milieu urbain ou naturel.

Abstract

Das Zusammenspiel von technischem Fortschritt, Phantasie und Funktionsvielfalt bei Fußgängerbrücken - im Vergleich zum Großbrückenbau - anderen Impulsen, die eine unerschöpfliche Vielfalt unverwechselbarer Beispiele bescheren. Die für dieses Buch ausgewählten, ausführlich dokumentierten Fußgängerbrücken aus Europa zeigen dies anschaulich. Textbeiträge machen technische Zusammenhänge verständlich und das gestalterische Potenzial des Tragwerkentwurfs nachvollziehbar. Fussgängerbrücken stellt 90 ausgewählte Brücken ausführlich mit Text, Gesamt- und Detailplänen und eigens aufgenommenen aktuellen Fotografien vor. Mit Projekten von Arup, Jürg Conzett, Foster and Partners, Happold, Schlaich Bergermann und Partner, Wilkinson Eyre, Zaha Hadid u.a. Die Beispiele sind chronologisch innerhalb von thematischen Kapiteln geordnet: leichte Brücken, bewegliche Brücken, gedeckte Brücken, Hänge-Spannband-Brücken, Bogenbrücken etc. Eine nach Orten sortierte Sammlung von weiteren einhundertzwanzig Fußgängerbrücken, lässt den ersten Blick in dieses Teilgebiet des Brückenbaus zum Anreiz für weiteres Entdecken werden. Ursula Baus ist freie Architekturkritikerin und Autorin zahlreicher Bücher und Fachartikel, sie unterrichtet an der Universität Stuttgart. Mike Schlaich ist Professor an der Technischen Universität Berlin für Massivbau und er ist Partner im Büro Schlaich Bergermann und Partner. Wilfried Dechau ist Fotograf, er lebt und arbeitet in Stuttgart, er ist spezialisiert auf Architektur, Brücken und Portraits. The influence on the interplay of technical progress, imagination and functional variety in footbridges are different from those affecting large-scale bridges. This fact has resulted in an exhaustible variety of distinctive design, as is beautifully illustrated by the selection of footbridges shown in this book. Essays clearly explain the technical aspects and the aesthetic potential of different structure designs. Footbridges contains detailed presentations of 90 european bridges, with text, comprehensive and detail plans, and photographs taken especially for the volume. With projects by Arup, Jürg Conzett, Foster and Partners, Happold, Schlaich Bergermann and Partners, Wilkinson Eyre, Jiri Strasky and others. The examples are organized chronologically in thematically focused chapters: lightweight bridges, moving bridges, covered bridges, taut-ribbon suspension bridges, arch bridges, etc. For those whose curiosity is aroused by the insight given into this type of bridge building, a compilation of 120 more footbridges, listed by location, provide a starting point for further investigation. Ursula Baus is an independent architecture critic and the author of numerous books and technical articles. She teaches at Stuttgart University. Mike Schlaich is a professor of massive construction at the Technische Universität (Technical University) in Berlin and a partner of the firm Schlaich Bergermann and Partners. Wilfried Dechau is a photographer - he lives and works in Stuttgart and specializes in architecture, bridges, and portraits.

Abstract

This book is dedicated to urbanization, which is observed every day, as well as the methods and techniques of monitoring and analyzing this phenomenon. In the 21st century, urbanization has gained momentum, and the awareness of the significance and influence of this phenomenon on our lives make us take a closer look at it not only with curiosity, but also great attention. There are numerous reasons for this, among which the economy is of special significance, but it also has many results, namely, economic, social, and environmental. First of all, it is a spatial phenomenon, as all of the aspects can be placed in space. We would therefore like to draw special attention to the results of urbanization seen on the Earth's surface and in the surrounding space. The urbanization–land relation seems obvious, but is also interesting and multi-layered. The development of science and technology provides a lot of new tools for observing urbanization, as well as the analyses and inference of the phenomenon in space. This book is devoted to in-depth analysis of past, present and future urbanization processes all over the world. We present the latest trends of research that use experience in the widely understood geography of the area. This book is focused on multidisciplinary phenomenon, i.e., urbanization, with the use of the satellite and photogrammetric observation technologies and GIS analyses.
