Résumé:
«Le projet hardi de M. Eiffel souleva de nombreuses protestations dans le monde des arts, rencontra de graves objections de la part du monde scientifique et suscita de vives polémiques. Malgré cela, le célèbre novateur poursuivit son œuvre avec confiance, et, aujourd’hui, la tour de 300 mètres, qui dresse sa flèche élancée sur les bords de la Seine, témoigne des succès éclatants de cette entreprise, qui avait été si discutée à ses débuts. Elle a été l’attraction principale de l’Exposition de 1889 et elle constitue encore un des monuments les plus remarquables de l’industrie métallurgique.» J.-B. Dumont,1891

Résumé:
A reciprocal framework in architecture is a construction where a building’s weight is held not through a single post or beam, but through an interaction of mutually supportive, interwoven members. Reciprocal frameworks have been in use for hundreds of years—including in the work of such Renaissance masters as Leonardo—but, while they are still used today, they are not(...)

Résumé:
A reciprocal framework in architecture is a construction where a building’s weight is held not through a single post or beam, but through an interaction of mutually supportive, interwoven members. Reciprocal frameworks have been in use for hundreds of years—including in the work of such Renaissance masters as Leonardo—but, while they are still used today, they are not particularly well known. This book delves into the history and function of reciprocal frameworks, showing not only how they work but also how newly available digital tools can help architects fruitfully expand their use well beyond current applications.

Résumé:
From Egypt and Classical Greece and Rome through the building booms of the Gothic era and the Renaissance, and from the Industrial Revolution to the present era of digital modeling, Building: 3,000 Years of Design, Engineering, and Construction, charts centuries of innovations in engineering and building construction. This comprehensive and heavily illustrated volume, aimed at students and young professionals as well as general readers, explores the materials, classic texts, instruments, and theories that have propelled modern engineering, and the famous and not-so-famous buildings designed through the ages, from the Parthenon to Chartres Cathedral and the dome of St. Peter's, from eighteenth-century silk mills in England to the Crystal Palace, and on to the first Chicago high-rises, the Sydney Opera House, and the latest "green" skyscrapers.
