Résumé:
L'histoire de l'architecture a du mal à relater l'énorme dependance matérielle de son objet. Aujourd'hui, en France tout au moins, les statistiques affirment que 80% du poids de la construction produite annuellement est en béton. Or que sait-on de ce qui fonde cette moderne sujétion? Une figure capitalise toutes les valeurs originelle, et en partie originale, du béton armé: elle a pour nom Hennebique. Il fallait en faire le portrait, il fallait en caractériser l'entreprises, il fallait décrire la sorte de magnétisme qui le positionne comme l'incontournable expérimentateur du matériau de la modernité architecturale. Le récit qu'à élaboré Gwenaël Delhumeau autout de la personnalité de François Hennebique répond à ces attentes: il démonte, pièce par pièce, la gigantesque machine que l'entrepreneur a contruite pour faire du béton armé les parois de nos espaces ou la matière de nos horizons. Le béton armé, «marbre du XXe siècle» selon Tadao Ando, méritait qu'on en restitue la paternité. Avec ce livre, c'est chose faite.

Résumé:
Catalogue of the ''Technoscape'' exhibition, which was held at MAXXI in Autumn 2022, focused on the relationship between artistic and scientific disciplines, nowadays closer than ever, and the consequent contacts between technique, creativity, and social awareness. Architecture, engineering, and science have overlapped on numerous occasions during the 20th century. First in the heroic phase and then in the mature phase of the reinforced concrete, then with the affirmation of hi-tech construction methods in the 1970s and 1980s and finally with the eruption of digitally controlled technologies. The volume follows the dual register of the exhibition, first dealing with how technology is making architecture, urban planning, and other related disciplines more aware of their technical and scientific responsibility and capable of opening up new lines of research. The focus shifts then to structural engineering, comparing current masterpieces with previous historical modernist examples.

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(...)

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.
