Résumé:
Inspired by the complexity and heterogeneity of the world around us, and by the rise of new technologies and their associated behavior, The "Architecture Concept Book" seeks to stimulate young architects and students to think outside of what is often a rather conservative and self-perpetuating professional domain and to be influenced by everything around them.

Résumé:
A follow-up to the original German edition published in 2013, this first English edition offers a new foreword by Oya Atalay Franck, who writes, “Perhaps it is precisely the deceitful nature of architectural problems that make the profession so interesting, that lets architects find new answers to the seemingly same questions time and again.” Compiled by the Institute Urban Landscape of the School of Architecture, Design, and Civil Engineering at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences, this guide permits two levels of reading. Firstly, it offers a selective interrogation of specific methods in real-world applications. Secondly, it is an examination of the methods themselves.

Résumé:
L'activité de réhabilitation est aujourd'hui indissociable des principes de la construction durable: innover, isoler, réparer, réutiliser, réinventer, se conjugent désormais avec empreinte carbone et performances thermiques. L'acier joue un rôle essentiel dans cette dynamique: résistant, léger et économique, il est devenu le matériau de choix pour tous les types d'intervention en lien avec la réhabilitation. C'est afin d'aider le praticien confronté à cette problématique que cette référence sans équivalent a été rédigée. Toutes les informations indispensables à l'usage de l'acier dans la réhabilitation de bâtiments, quels que soient leurs matériaux constitutifs, y sont présentées: soutainements temporaires et permanents, techniques de renforcement et de réparation de poutres, poteaux et planchers, consolidation de structures, techniques d'extension et de surélévation, renforcement de constructions fragilisées, réhabilitation des façades et des toitures.

Résumé:
Organised into 9 parts that highlight a wide range of architectural motives, such as ‘Architecture as Theatre’, ‘Stretching the Vocabulary’ and ‘The City of Large and Small’, the workbook provides inspiring key themes for readers to take their cue from when initiating a design. Motives cover a wide-range of work that epitomise the theme. These include historical and Modernist examples, things observed in the street, work by current innovative architects and from Cook’s own rich archive, weaving together a rich and vibrant visual scrapbook of the everyday and the architectural, and past and present.

Résumé:
La connaissance des propriétés des matériaux est fondamentale dans toutes les études, applications techniques et choix architecturaux. Le respect des exigences de sécurité des constructions, de confort et d'environnement est aussi directement lié aux performances et capacités des matériaux. Les mettre en relation avec les besoins de stabilité mécanique, de sécurité en cas d'incendie, d'isolation contre le bruit, de confort d'isolation (thermique et acoustique) et de protection contre l'humidité n'est pas simple, mais s'avère essentiel. L'objet de ce livre est de fournir les valeurs qui permettent de respecter ces exigences. La première partie, alphabétique, donne les propriétés et caractéristiques intrinsèques de 23 matériaux (bois, acier, béton, PVC, verre, etc.). Les parties suivantes fournissent, pour les matériaux simples et composites, les propriétés thermiques, acoustiques, physiques, mécaniques et électrochimiques ainsi que leur comportement vis-à-vis du feu ou de l'humidité et de la condensation et détaille les exigences des revêtements de sol. Un chapitre est entièrement consacré au métabolisme humain (besoin respiratoire, particules dans l'air, émission de chaleur, plages d'audibilité et du champs visuel, etc.). La recherche des caractéristiques des matériaux à mettre en œuvre, étudier, utiliser, associer ou mettre en application... est facilitée par une présentation sous forme de fiches pratiques et de tableaux synoptiques. Ce mémento est destiné à l'ensemble des professionnels qui participent à l'acte de construire : techniciens, ingénieurs, architectes, concepteurs, économistes et prescripteurs techniques dans la construction et l'industrie, experts d'assurances et judiciaires, contrôleurs techniques, fabricants sans oublier les étudiants et enseignants.

Résumé:
Due to the growing demand for clean sources of energy, the manufacture of solar cells and photovoltaic arrays has expanded dramatically in recent years. Photovoltaics has high appeal, generating electricity from sunlight,silently, with no maintenance, no pollution and no depletion of materials. In building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) systems, photovoltaic modules become an integral part of the building envelope, such as the roof, a skylight or the façade. BIPV represents the combination of proven renewable power technology and the building exterior using traditional building practices. This handbook is aimed at architects and designers. It addresses PV-technology as one more building cladding option from an architect’s point of view. Most examples here are of new buildings, but the guidance is equally relevant for renovation of existing buildings.

Résumé:
Each volume analyses the construction process from the first design idea to the call for bids, covering the fundamental design principles and concrete details. The series title, Scale, signifies that the perfect detail is the result of a process through various levels of conception and design, from the abstract to the particular. Although the focus is on communicating hands-on constructional know-how, Scale’s innovative presentation does not just simply show solutions, but demonstrates how to develop them. Each volume presents essential information for design and implementation, from the first sketches to details of connectors in a scale of 1:10. Consistency in the plans and drawings, clear hierarchies in the headings and structure, and a clear, easily readable layout with helpful captions simplify the search for specific information, and make Scale volumes ideal for quick, targeted consultation.
