Summary:
Aujourd’hui, le bois concerne tous les programmes. Voici donc tous les éléments techniques et réglementaires indispensables aux concepteurs et maîtres d’ouvrage pour construire avec le bois. Une bonne connaissance de la structure du bois, de son comportement, des différentes essences disponibles, des produits dérivés, des lois qui régissent son assemblage et son collage ainsi que des méthodes de protection et d’habillage les plus récentes, constitue un atout décisif pour le développement de l’emploi du bois dans le bâtiment. Avant tout pratique, ce livre illustré consacre d’importants développements aux difficultés propres à la construction en bois et aux précautions de conception et de mise en œuvre dont il faut s’entourer. Un chapitre traite des aspects réglementaires de la construction en bois, notamment de l’eurocode, de la résistance au feu et de la nouvelle réglementation acoustique.

Summary:
"Green Architecture" is true to its title: Wines presents many examples of environmentally responsible projects with a critical analysis of their salient features. It's also nothing less than an indictment of today's practice of architecture, in which the focus on short-term profits trumps consideration of ecology as motivation for design.

Summary:
"Conscious community" focuses on three Louis I. Kahn Visiting Assistant Professors’ architecture studios at Yale including that of Chirs Cornelius of the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin in "De-Colonizing Indigenous Housing," New York-based architect Rodney Leon in "National Slavery Memorial" and Jordanian-Palestinian architect and designer Abeer Seikaly in "Conscious skins." The student projects exemplify a commitment to redefining the role of architecture in addressing societal and cultural complexities while redefining the architectural subject. These projects go beyond their proposed physical constructs; they are manifestations of a conversation about space, identity, and memory. This conversation challenges architectural norms, advocating for designs that view environmental, historical, and social aspects as interwoven elements of the architectural brief.

Summary:
"Decolonising the built environment: process, product, and pedagogy" provides an important and much-needed comprehensive overview of how decolonisation is shaping the built environment in theory, in practice, and as a process/project today. The contributors provide an inclusive and trans-national conversation between a diverse set of academics, design practitioners and thinkers, and activists. This book is structured around three thematic and practical categories: Part 1 studies decolonisation conceptually; Part 2 studies decolonisation as a process; and Part 3 studies the products of decolonisation as materialised in the form of buildings, urban design, planning, policy, and social practices.

Summary:
Face aux défis environnementaux, économiques et sociétaux, utiliser des matériaux de construction disponibles à portée de main ou juste sous nos pieds offre des solutions techniques vertueuses, inspirées de savoir-faire ancestraux. Cela redonne aussi du sens aux métiers du bâtiment, encourage le développement de filières économiques locales, crée des emplois et ancre à nouveau l’acte de bâtir dans son territoire. MATERIA associe la pierre à la terre et aux fibres végétales, en mettant l’accent sur la réhabilitation du bâti existant. L’ouvrage analyse et documente les 40 projets finalistes du materia award à travers leurs dimensions architecturales, techniques et environnementales. La réduction de l’impact carbone des matériaux, embryonnaire il y a une décennie, est désormais intégrée dans les règlementations. Les filières se structurent, mais surtout, la conscience collective a évolué, notamment chez les étudiants et les nouvelles générations de bâtisseurs. Aspirant à un avenir différent, ils explorent de nouvelles manières de concevoir l’architecture et de la mettre en œuvre. Sensibles à la dimension sociale de l’acte de construire, ils expérimentent des matériaux peu transformés, avec le chantier comme point d’orgue.
