Modern Construction Case Studies focuses on the interface between the design of facades, structures and environments of 12 building projects, all developed by Newtecnic.
The Author compares facade technologies, particularly in the way they interface with structure and MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing services) in complex projects, to provide insights into the design process for building envelopes. Each envelope technology is described with an emphasis on one of three aspects: geometry, construction and performance.
The analysis links the 12 case studies by comparing their structural and environmental performance. The aim is achieved by analyzing typical bays which are representative of each project and which illustrate the implications of using different building envelope technologies.

Описание: In a media-saturated world, humour stands out as a form of social communication that is especially effective in re-appropriating and questioning architectural and urban culture. Whether illuminating the ambivalences of metropolitan life or exposing the shock of modernisation, cartoons, caricature, and parody have long been potent agents of architectural criticism, protest and opposition. In a novel contribution to the field of architectural history, this book outlines a survey of visual and textual humour as applied to architecture, its artefacts and leading professionals. Employing a wide variety of visual and literary sources (prints, the illustrated press, advertisements, theatrical representations, cinema and TV), thirteen essays explore an array of historical subjects concerning the critical reception of projects, buildings and cities through the means of caricature and parody. Subjects range from 1750 to the present, and from Europe and the USA to contemporary China. From William Hogarth and George Cruikshank to Osbert Lancaster, Adolf Loos’ satire, and Saul Steinberg’s celebrated cartoons of New York City, graphic and descriptive humour is shown to be an enormously fruitful, yet largely unexplored terrain of investigation for the architectural and urban historian.

Описание: Media are incorporated into our physical environments more dramatically than ever before - literally opening up new spaces of interactivity and connection that transform the experience of being in the city. Public gatherings and movement, even the capabilities of democratic ideology, have been redefined. Urban Screens, mobile media, new digital mappings, and ambient and pervasive media have all created new ecologies in cities. How do we analyze these new spaces? Recognition of the mutual histories and research programs of urban and media studies is only the beginning. Cartographies of Place develops new vocabularies and methodologies for engaging with the distinctive situations and experiences created by media technologies which are reshaping, augmenting, and expanding urban spaces. The book builds upon the rich traditions and insights of a post-war generation of humanist scholars, media theorists, and urban planners. Authors engage with different historical and contemporary currents in urban studies which share a common concern for media forms, either as research tools or as the means for discerning the expressive nature of city spaces around the world. All of the media considered here are not simply "free floating," but are deeply embedded in the geopolitical, economic, and material contexts in which they are used. Cartographies of Place is exemplary of a new direction in interdisciplinary media scholarship, opening up new ways of studying the complexities of cities and urban media in a global context.

Die Berucksichtigung von Brandschutzbelangen ist ein wichtiger Teil der Gebaudeplanung. Sie umfasst sowohl vorbeugende Ma?nahmen, die die Entstehung eines Brandes verhindern konnen, als auch Vorkehrungen, die im Falle eines Brandes die Rettung der Menschen aus einem Gebaude und das Eindammen des Brandes durch die Feuerwehr ermoglichen.
Der Brandschutz ist stark durch rechtliche Vorgaben gepragt, er ist auch ein wesentlicher im Baugenehmigungsverfahren. Fur die Arbeit von Architekten ist es jedoch vor allem wichtig, die Hintergrunde und Denkweisen des vorbeugenden Brandschutzes zu verstehen, um diesen in ihre Planung von Anfang an integrieren zu konnen.
Basics Brandschutz vermittelt dieses Wissen unabhangig von Vorschriften und erlautert die grundlegenden Zusammenhange in der Brandschutzplanung.

With larger projects it makes sense to involve a project controller who will competently secure the client's interests and effectively ensure that the client's objectives are met throughout the project. To achieve this, it is not sufficient to be experienced in the design and execution of construction projects. Specialist project management skills are a mandatory requirement for the success of a project.
The project controller is pivotal to the success of the project; together with the client he will define the objectives of the project, develop organizational structures, and be instrumental in appointing project participants. He will assist with the proper fulfilment of contracts and with the documentation of design decisions.
The Basics Project Control volume presents, in a practical way, all duties and services involved in project management.
