L'apparition du coke métallique en (1750) et du procédé de puddlage de l'acier en 1754 ont ouvert la voie à une nouvelle ère dans la construction des ponts, qui, de la pierre et du bois, sont passés au métal. 1856 est l'année de la mise au point de l'acier :(...)

Summary:
Cet ouvrage retrace l'histoire de l'évolution des techniques de construction appliquées aux ponts industriels. L'apparition du coke métallique en (1750) et du procédé de puddlage de l'acier en 1754 ont ouvert la voie à une nouvelle ère dans la construction des ponts, qui, de la pierre et du bois, sont passés au métal. 1856 est l'année de la mise au point de l'acier : grâce à ce matériau révolutionnaire apparaissent de nouvelles formes, simplifiées. L'arrivée du béton, du béton armé et du béton contraint ouvre des possibilités de réalisations jusque-là insoupçonnées, les ponts devenant d'admirables prouesses technologiques.

Summary:
Jadis bien circonscrite dans ses murs, la ville en tant qu'unité administrative, politique ou territoriale fermée n'est plus qu'un souvenir. Mais, quelle que soit l'échelle, ce souvenir de ville traverse, inégalement, le centre et les périphéries. Comment, dans l'éclatement, redéployer l'effet ville ? Que ce soit du côté du «Grand Paris» ou en d'autres lieux (Berlin, Barcelone, Roubaix, Dunkerque, Saint-Étienne, Moscou...), ce numéro propose que la notion de paysage urbain soit prise au sérieux : que le paysage, au lieu de servir de supplément d'âme à la violence technocratique ou à l'autisme du discours architectural, devienne vraiment le principe d'organisation des territoires à l'âge de leur redéfinition.
