The chapters cover the basic principles of working with timber and provide detailed information on subjects such as thermal performance, sound insulation and fire protection. There is also a chapter devoted to the ecological significance of wood. Timber as a loadbearing material is considered and topics such as new methods of jointing, transport and erection are documented. The second part of the book presents a large number of built examples, which feature some classic structures but focus chiefly on more recent buildings. These are presented with full illustrations, details and plans which depict solutions as built for various loadbearing systems. The spectrum of timber structures presented ranges from heavy-duty bridges to multi-storey residential buildings and the magnificent Expo roof. The second chapter of examples deals specifically with topics such as facades, building envelope etc. All drawings and illustrations have been carefully produced to ensure that the details and methods of construction documented are clear and comprehensible.

When it comes to detecting, diagnosing and treating women who have, or are suspected of having, ovarian cancer, there are significant opportunities for well-informed healthcare professionals to intervene in a meaningful way. 'Fast Facts: Ovarian Cancer' examines the areas that will have the biggest effect in clinical practice, including: • the evidence for and against screening • the valuable role of genetic testing in identifying at-risk women • if and when to operate • strategies to overcome platinum resistance • the impact of targeted therapies. From the tools that will help establish a swift diagnosis to the risks and benefits of palliative salvage surgery, this refreshingly readable resource captures the key knowledge that every busy healthcare professional needs in order to make better health decisions for patients with ovarian cancer. Contents: • Epidemiology and prevention • Pathophysiology and classification • Genetic testing • Diagnosis, staging and grading • Surgery • Chemotherapy • Recurrent ovarian cancer • Targeted therapies • Non-epithelial ovarian cancers • Follow-up and palliative surgery • Useful resources

Facades - they are the first feature of a building to be noticed, they determine its distinctive appearance and are often the subject of controversial debate. This new first edition of the Facade Construction Manual provides a systematic survey of contemporary expertise in the application of new materials and energy- efficient technologies in facade design, and represents an invaluable addition to our series of Construction Manuals. It surveys the facade design requirements made by various types of buildings, as well as the most important materials, from natural stone through to synthetics, and documents a diversity of construction forms for a wide range of building types. Over 100 international case-studies in large-scale, detailed drawings are presented in the comprehensive project section. «Facade Construction Manual» provides a systematic survey of contemporary expertise in the application of new materials and energy-efficient technologies in facade design. It surveys the facade design requirements made by various types of buildings, as well as the most important materials, from natural stone through to synthetics, and documents a diversity of construction forms for a wide range of building types.

Ce nouveau volume de "Construire en bois" propose une mise à jourcomplète, remaniée et augmentée des précédents volumes ("Construire enbois", "Construire en bois 2"), et se pose comme nouvel ouvrage deréférence de la construction en bois pour les architectes et lesingénieurs. Les avantages de la construction en bois restentsous-estimés de nos jours et peu de procédés subissent autant depréjugés négatifs et infondés de la part des maîtres d'ouvrage, desassureurs et des planificateurs. Mais les avantages offerts par cematériau sont nombreux, tant d'un point de vue technologiquequ'économique ou écologique. Fruit de l'expérience de deux ingénieurset trois architectes, "Construire en bois" privilégie cette doubleapproche dans le but d'améliorer sans cesse la conception des ouvragesen bois. Riche de centaines de photographies en noir et blanc et encouleurs (ainsi que de milliers de dessins), il présente une vastegamme de formes, de moyens et de techniques d'assemblage, deconceptions d'appui et de systèmes porteurs, et rassemble ainsi en unseul manuel toutes les informations relatives aux propriétés dumatériau bois et ses possibilités d'utilisation dans le domaine de laconstruction. Exhaustif, synthétique et abondamment illustré par denombreux exemples construits, ce nouveau volume de "Construire enbois" constitue un outil véritablement indispensable pour tous lesacteurs de la construction.
