Старое издание
Автор: Kent A Harries Название: Nonconventional and Vernacular Construction Materials ISBN: 0081008716 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780081008713 Издательство: Elsevier Science Цена: 206610 T Описание: Nonconventional and Vernacular Construction Materials: Characterisation, Properties and Applications provides a comprehensive repository of information on materials science and the modern structural engineering application of ancient, vernacular, and nonconventional building materials, with leading experts contributing chapters that focus on current applications and the engineering of these construction materials. Opening with a historic retrospective of nonconventional materials, Part One includes a review of vernacular construction and a discussion of the future directions for nonconventional and vernacular materials research and applications. Chapters in Part Two focus on natural fibers, including their application in cementitious composites, non-cementitious composites, and strawbale construction. In Part Three, chapters cover the use of industrial by-products and natural ashes in cement mortar and concrete, and construction using soil-cement blocks, clay-based materials, adobe and earthen materials, and ancient stone masonry. Timber, bamboo, and paper construction materials are investigated in the final section of the book.

Sustainable and Nonconventional Construction Materials Using Inorganic Bonded Fiber Composites presents a concise overview of non-conventional construction materials with a strong focus on alternative inorganic bonded fiber composites and their applications as construction components. It outlines the processing and characterization of non-conventional cementitious composites, which will be of great benefit to both academic and industrial professionals interested in research, development, and innovation on inorganic bonded fiber composites.
The book gives a comprehensive review of the innovative research associated with building components based on inorganic bonded composites. Exploring both natural fibers as reinforcing elements and alternative inorganic binders based on agricultural and industrial wastes, this book also considers the performance and applications of fibrous composites as construction materials and components.
Dedicated to analyzing recent developments in inorganic fiber composites research
Discusses the broader subjects of processing, characterization, performance, and applications of non-conventional construction materials

The aim of this book is to reflect on ''vernacularity'' and culture. It concentrates on two major domains: first it attempts to reframe our understanding of vernacularity by addressing the subject in the context of globalisation, cross-disciplinarity, and development, and second, it discusses the phenomenon of how vernacularity has been treated, used, employed, manipulated, practiced, maintained, learned, reconstructed, preserved and conserved, at the level of individual and community experience. Scholars from a wide variety of knowledge fields have participated in enriching and engaging discussions, as to how both domains can be addressed.To expedite these aims, this book adopts the theme 'Reframing the Vernacular: Politics, Semiotics, and Representation',organised around the following major sub-themes:• Transformation in the vernacular built environment• Vernacular architecture and representation• The meaning of home• Symbolic intervention and interpretation of vernacularity• The semiotics of place• The politics of ethnicity and settlement• Global tourism and its impacts on vernacular settlement• Vernacular built form and aesthetics• Technology and construction in vernacular built forms• Vernacular language - writing and oral traditions

Описание: ?This book discusses applying vernacular strategies to modern architectural design to adhere to basic green principles of energy efficiency and materials utilization. Written from an international perspective, chapters present the perspectives and experiences of architects and engineers from across the globe. Historically successful approaches are integrated with modern design concepts to create novel, sustainable, and resource conscious solutions. The scope of topics covered include natural ventilation, cooling and heating, daylight and shading devices, and green micro-climate and functional facades, making this a useful reference for a wide range of researchers and workers in the built environment.
Covers the most up-to-date research developments, best practices, and innovations from countries all over the globe;Presents the latest research in vernacular architecture and sustainable building;Contains case studies and examples to enhance practical application of the technologies presented.
