Résumé:
For the sheer quantity and quality of his inventions, scientist and structural engineer Vladimir Shukhov (1853–1939) is sometimes referred to as the “Russian Thomas Edison.” Among his pioneering contributions are a number of innovations related to the oil industry, including the design and construction of the first Russian pipeline and the world’s first industrial plant for oil cracking. His groundbreaking structural works include the cable-supported hanging roof and the hyperboloid lattice tower epitomized by the Shukhov Tower in Moscow, which bears his name. Networks of Construction collects Shukhov’s trailblazing achievements from the turn of the twentieth century, exploring his career and complicated creative process. Each of Shukhov’s projects, the book shows, was realized through an elaborate process beginning with an intense period of planning to account for the interconnections among a wide range of factors, from the technical background of the construction workers to technology transfer, the nomenclature of steel grades, and the scientification of construction knowledge. Ekaterina Nozhova and Uta Hassler of the Institute of Historic Building Research and Conservation at ETH Zurich have painstakingly reconstructed Shukhov’s process through a wealth of drawings, photographs, and documents.

Il fut vilipendé récemment, ainsi que son matériau, le béton armé, pour n’avoir pas su résister à cinquante ans de vibrations continues… Le pont est un objet singulier, à l’identité forte, mais aussi un point d’un système (autoroutier par exemple) qui le tient, l’active dans ses coordonnées territoriales. Les ponts, ceux de Morandi en particulier, expriment cet attachement finalement paradoxal : d’être à la fois vecteur de flux et performance statique. Il poinçonne le paysage en sautant l’obstacle. Sa soudaine fragilité nous rappelle sa nature essentielle : d’être, au sens propre, un accident de la route.

Résumé:
Consacré à la sauvegarde des grandes oeuvres de l’ingénierie du XXe siècle, ce premier numéro des Cahiers du TSAM explore le devenir de certaines des plus remarquables et emblématiques structures en béton du siècle passé. A travers les fi gures d’héroïques constructeurs, il interroge l’héritage construit des ingénieurs, convoquant les plus audacieux d’entre eux (Freyssinet, Isler, Maillart, Nervi, Vierendeel, etc.). Alors que la sauvegarde de l’architecture du XXe siècle s’est récemment constituée en discipline à part entière, la préservation des ouvrages de l’ingénierie de cette période est encore balbutiante. Considérés trop souvent sous le seul point de vue de la sécurité ou de la maintenance, ces ouvrages s’avèrent parfois de véritables chefs-d’oeuvre, jalons d’un «art de l’ingénieur» à la frontière entre performance technique et beauté plastique. Ces cahiers sont donc l’occasion d’initier, à l’appui d’exemples et de projets de sauvegarde concrets, une sensibilisation aux enjeux patrimoniaux dans le domaine de l’ingénierie. This first issue of the Cahiers du TSAM, dedicated to the conservation of the 20th century’s great works of engineering, aims to explore the future of some of the most remarkable and emblematic concrete structures of the previous century. Through the personalities of the heroic builders, this publication aims to consider what the engineers – the most daring of whom (Freyssinet, Isler, Maillart, Nervi, Vierendeel, etc.) are represented here – bequeathed to the century. While the conserva-tion of 20th century architecture has in recent years been seen as a discipline in its own right, the conservation of 20th century engineering is still in its infancy. Considered too offen purely from the point of view of security or maintenance, these works are now often seen as true masterpieces, cutting edge achievements of the “engineer’s art”, as stunning for their plastic beauty as for their technical performance. This publication provides an opportunity to stimulate, with reference to concrete examples and projects, an awareness of the heritage challenges to be addressed in the fi eld of engineering.
