Abstract

In recent years, Philipp Brühwiler, the architect from Zug, has constructed several noteworthy buildings - far away from any press coverage. The area at the foothills of the Alps requires that it be dealt with more intensively, and this is the case in Bauen in Hanglagen, (Building in Hillside Locations), a topic that is not always popular.

Abstract

With its virtually infinite plasticity, its constructional versatility, and its simple and straightforward building technology, concrete is the building material of the present. In addition to careful design and constructional planning, the invitation of bids and the building contract are the keys to a successful implementation. Building with Concrete provides the basic information needed to work with the material, with special attention to the architect's role in planning and construction management. It describes current trends in concrete technology and the development of innovative new types of concrete, with firsthand reports by architects in the field. It also describes the new version of the DBV/BDZ data sheet "Exposed Concrete."

Abstract

of ECF16 Chairman Emmanuel E. Gdoutos The "16th European Conference of Fracture," (ECF16), was held in the beautiful town of Alexandroupolis, Greece, site of the Democritus University of Thrace, July 3-7, 2006. Within the context of ECF16 forty six special symposia and sessions were organized by renowned experts from around the world. The present volume is devoted to the symposium on "Measuring, Monitoring and Modeling Concrete Properties" (MMMCP) organized by my wife Dr. Maria Konsta-Gdoutos in honor of our good friend Surendra P. Shah of Nor- western University, USA. I am greatly indebted to Maria for undertaking the difficult task to organize this symposium with great success and edit the symposium volume. Started in 1976, the European Conference of Fracture (ECF) takes place every two years in a European country. Its scope is to promote world-wide cooperation among s- entists and engineers concerned with fracture and fatigue of solids. ECF16 was under the auspices of the European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS) and was sponsored by the American Society of Testing and Materials, the British Society for Stain Measurement, the Society of Experimental Mechanics, the Italian Society for Experimental Mechanics and the Japanese Society of Mechanical Engineers. ECF16 focused in all aspects of structural integrity with the objective of improving the safety and performance of engineering str- tures, components, systems and their associated materials.

Abstract

Since the large-scale use of concrete prefabricated parts in the 1960s and 1970s, this material has developed new applications in recent years and also become more aesthetically refined. Extremely light and thin varieties of concrete like the newly developed Ductal and virtually transparent concrete cladding allow for the creation of interesting and spectacular designs. Precisely such avant-garde architects as Tod Williams & Billie Tsien, Herzog & de Meuron, Zaha Hadid, and Steven Holl make frequent use of these materials.Eight articles and essays by noted authors such as Antoine Picon, Adrian Forty, Guy Nordenson, Franz Ulm, and others shed light on specific aspects of this material and its new forms. Scattered throughout the book are also 30 attractive recent buildings, which illustrate and exemplify these developments. Included are projects by Takashi Yamaguchi, Baumschlager & Eberle, Ateliers Jean Nouvel, Foster and Partners, Ingenhoven und Partner, Santiago Calatrava, Hariri & Hariri, Tadao Ando, Antoine Predock and others.

Abstract

For some years now, the works of the architects office Scheitlin - Syfrig + Partner in Lucerne have caught the attention of, among others, the museum Forum der Schweizer Geschichte (Forum for Swiss History) in Schwyz (1995) and the convention centre Hoffmann-La Roche in Buonas (2002). The book volume presents a selection of buildings that have been completed since then.

Abstract

L'analyse des structures et milieux continus, discipline fondamentale pour l'ingénieur, intervient tant dans la conception d'un ouvrage que dans son calcul détaillé. Faisant suite au volume 1, Statique appliquée, la Mécanique des structures, matière riche et féconde, conduit au dimensionnementdes éléments structuraux. Pour construire, l'ingénieur doit posséder une connaissance aiguë despropriétés mécaniques des matériaux, du jeu des contraintes internes, de la déformation de la matière, de la sécurité et des dangers attachés à certaines sollicitations. Ces notions sont présentées dans ce livre sur la base des structures en barres, poutres et câbles avant tout, en se limitant à l'essentiel et au concret. Assorti de nombreux exercices, ce livre s'adresse aux étudiants du premier cycle universitaire ainsi qu'aux ingénieurs praticiens. Il constitue le deuxième volet d'une série d'ouvrages consacrés à l'analyse des structures et mileux continus.
