Abstract

Der Einsatz von Naturwerkstein hat eine lange Tradition. Der Umgang mit diesem faszinierenden Material stellt jedoch hohe Anforderungen an das handwerkliche Können und stellt Planer und Ausführende vor neue Herausforderungen in neuen Anwendungsbereichen. Dieses Buch möchte hier Abhilfe schaffen: Der Einsatz von Naturstein wird in Detailzeichnungen im Maßstab 1:10 nachvollzogen, wobei besonderer Wert auf alle Anschlusspunkte und die damit verbundenen speziellen Probleme gelegt wird und worauf bei Entwurf und Planung als auch während der Ausführung zu achten ist. Gegenüber der erhältlichen deutschen Ausgabe wurde diese internationale Ausgabe im konstruktiven Teil ergänzt durch ein Kapitel zur Fassadentechnik, und die Steinkarten wurden um eine Auswahl der meistgefragten 80 europäischen Steine erweitert. Handling this traditional but still captivating building material has its quirks, today perhaps more than ever. On the one hand it can no longer be taken for granted that stonemasonry skills will be readily available, while there are also new requirements and applications, not to mention damaging environmental influences, that create uncertainty for planners and implementers. This book is designed to provide assistance. - From cornice to curtain-walling: all details in words and sectional drawings - Are you looking for a particular stone? The most important domestic types of stone with supplier details - Various surface treatments and their visual effect - Documentation of 15 selected example applications

Abstract

"Almost every industry in the world has benefited from the invention of plastics, but it is only in the recent past that they have begun to be appreciated as architectural materials in their own right. Plastics are quickly becoming one of the most ubiquitous materials in construction and have the potential to reshape the roles of architects and engineers, as well as the construction industry at large. As a building material, plastic allows for easily molded and formed shapes, leading to increasingly malleable design processes. Despite being the most deeply engineered building materials today, plastics are still in the nascent stages of understanding in terms of their potential applications and uses. In Permanent Change an interdisciplinary group of architects, historians, theorists, and engineers collectively explore the past, present, and future possibilities of this innovative building material"-- "While plastics are perhaps the most deeply engineered building materials today, we are still in the nascent stages of understanding their potential applications and uses. Permanent Change sheds new light on these materials and their implications for the fields of architecture and engineering. Materials that once forecast easily molded shapes have become a permanent measure and control point in design. Permanent Change is the fourth in the series Columbia Books on Materials and Architecture"--

Abstract

The current material customer of translucent building materials Translucent materials give architects far more possibilities to exploit the sensual interplay of light and the fascination of interior-exterior interaction than plain glass, a fact proved by their increasing application. Traditionally, stretched paper, finely-cut stone, or stained glass were used to create mood and atmosphere. These are now giving way to a new generation of innovative materials - composite glass, synthetic panels, membranes and perforated metals.

Abstract

Het boek 'Het Zinderend Oppervlak. metselwerkverband als patroonkunst en compositiegereedschap' gaat over patroonkunst met baksteen.Het boek verdiept zich eerst in de traditionele metselverbanden en beschrijft het de systematiek van verbandspatronen. Vervolgens laat het zien hoe het verband met zijn stapeling, secundaire motief en bijzondere hoekoplossingen dienst kan doen als maat- en proportiesysteem voor de ontwerper. Daarna volgen de bijzonderheden van laag- en legpatronen om ten slotte te besluiten met andere steenformaten en nieuwe productie- en toepassingstechnieken van baksteen bekeken vanuit patroonkunst, reliëf en schaduwwerking.Baksteen – dat zware materiaal, dat zo... zwaarwichtig is. Maar als je diep graaft biedt het zoveel mogelijkheden. Het heeft altijd een schaal, en de afmetingen zijn verbonden met de menselijke hand die de stenen legt – daarmee bepaalt het de schaal zelf. En het kan gevormd worden, vormen kunnen worden samengesteld, de constructie wordt begrijpelijk – we weten allemaal hoe een boog in baksteen eruit ziet en hoe deze werkt. Maar met dit boek krijgen we ook toegang tot alle mogelijke variaties van patronen die gemaakt kunnen worden als we beginnen met ontwerpen. En het geeft de mogelijkheid om te werken met licht en schaduw, op zo’n manier dat het de massiviteit van het oppervlak ondersteunt. Dus stel je voor hoe het strijklicht op een zonnige morgen het rode, goedgeconstrueerde oppervlak aanraakt, zo mooi en expressief. Begin met en geniet van dit boek van een gekke kerel.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

Le verre occupe depuis toujours une place à part dans l'architecture grâce aux possibilités uniques qu'il offre pour la construction de bâtiments légers, ouverts et lumineux. Mais les formidables développements dont il a récemment fait l'objet ont suscité un tel engouement qu'il est devenu le matériau de prédilection des constructeurs. La nouvelle palette de possibilités présentée par ce matériau a fait naître une très forte demande d'informations de la part des architectes et planificateurs. C'est pour répondre à leurs besoins que cet ouvrage a été conçu. Il traite de manière exhaustive des diverses possibilités créatives et constructives offertes par le verre, des propriétés et des aspects physiques de ce matériau comme de son comportement sous différentes sollicitations. Il consacre une large place aux possibilités d'économie d'énergie réalisables par une utilisation appropriée du verre ainsi qu'un vaste éventail de détails sur les techniques de fixation et de construction. Un ouvrage qui simposera comme la référence en la matière. La première partie de ce livre se divise en 2 parties, tout d'abord il retrace le parcours du verre des origines au modernisme, ensuite il situe l'importance du matériau dans la seconde moitié du 20 e siècle. La deuxième partie étudie les principes du verre comme matériau de construction et ses relations avec les différentes énergies. la troisième partie développe les détails de construction. Et la quatrième partie montre son application au travers d'exemples choisis de réalisations architecturales.
