Résumé:
Now in its Fifth Edition, this essential textbook has been used by thousands of students annually in schools of architecture, engineering, and construction technology. The bestselling reference focuses on the basic materials and methods used in building construction, emphasizing common construction systems such as light wood frames, masonry bearing walls, steel frames, and reinforced concrete. New introductory material on the processes, organization, constraints, and choices in construction offers a better look at the management of construction. New sections covering the building envelope uncover the secrets to designing enclosures for thermal insulation, vapor retarders, air barriers, and moisture control. The Fifth Edition also features more axonometric detail drawings and revised photographs for a thoroughly illustrated approach and the latest IBC 2006, CSI MasterFormat, ASTM references, and LEED information.

Résumé:
In this connection, Internet Technologies (IT) have made a deep impact on design possibilities and the control of production logistics, enabling feats such as ‘freeform architecture’ and ‘increasingly precise elaboration’ to gain prominence. Alternatively, ‘Rapid Prototyping’ and ‘Rapid Manufacturing Technology’ provide the chance to create one-off components and elements for architecture. Here, processes of construction that are related to current available technologies of production and assembly are explored within the context of the opportunity to design and construct with their advantages – the realisation of genuine IT-driven architecture.

Résumé:
The impact of climate design on architecture is obvious, but design trends in their current form and programming attempt to implement this growing area of design merely as an additional item in architectonic planning. The alternative is to start with an architectural attitude that will produce a comprehensively integrated design and which will in turn require a radical shift in understanding. Design teams will have to accept equality in the importance of values as well as understanding the demands and consequences of all relevant themes. This pressing issue that is explored in depth here was produced as a by-product of a series of lectures and a workshop at the TU Delft, and is accompanied by photographs, plans and diagrams.

Résumé:
Plastic has moved from a supporting role to being a new star among construction materials. Of the over 50 different types of plastics in existence, each one has something different to offer. It is versatile, light-weight, flexible and moisture resistant; it can be colorful, clear or opaque and practically unbreakable. Plastics are easy to handle, durable and attractive at the same time - they are used for whole construction units as well as for selected decorative elements. The recent innovations in this field have inspired designers and architects to experiment with the wondrous properties of plastics. "Pure Plastic" is a richly illustrated volume that features about 60 some of the most impressive projects presenting a creative use of plastic and synthetic composites in latest architecture from all over the world.
