Summary:
The early twentieth century witnessed a transition from wood to timber construction, from log houses to dimensioned post and beams dressed for frame building. The subsequent development of laminated timber and new joinery techniques made wood a viable alternative to steel and concrete, and led to a number of awe-inspiring structures that captured, and continue to capture, the public imagination. One center of imaginative timber construction has been Switzerland, whose engineers, architects, and carpenters have provided fundamental knowledge and inspiration for builders in wood around the world. Developments in Timber Construction focuses not only on the best timber structures in Switzerland, but also on numerous international projects built by Swiss architects and engineers.

Summary:
Pietro Nobile (1776–1854), originally from Ticino in Switzerland, Director of the School of Architecture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, court architect and protégé of the Austrian Chancellor of State Clemens Lothar Metternich, attempts to combine science, mechanics, and aesthetics in architecture. An architect trained both as an engineer and academically, who reformed teaching at the School of Architecture at the Academy in Vienna by reacting to the design methods introduced at the Polytechnic in Paris, and by making academic drawing compulsory for engineers. The publication presents the results of the Italian-Austrian-Czech cooperation, based on the architect’s death estate in Trieste and Bellinzona, Switzerland, as well as materials scattered throughout Europe.
