This books comprises various themes around imaginary facades and building envelopes. Aspects such as function integration, networking of elements, new structures and materials, as well as the addition of functions to existing structures are investigated in around 85 examples.
"International Facades - CROFT" links the fields of architecture, building services and building physics. It aims at an international diversity in façade design to reduce energy consumption in building design. Current architectural planning practices, such as the International Style, perceive the climate often as a problem, rather than an opportunity to work with it. This doctoral thesis presents a “Facade Expert Tool” (FET) that analyses the climate and the combination of the façade and building services. The goal of FET is to easily analyse the climate of a particular location and to then limit the possible combination of façade and building services components to a practical level. Through FET Marcel Bilow has developed “Climate Responsive Optimised Facade Technologies” (CROFT). CROFT demonstrates the potential for sustainable building operation through the use new technologies that respond to the requirements posed on façades in climate zones as divers as those found in Moscow, Singapore, Berlin and Dubai.
This book presents Internet of Things (IoT) solutions monitoring and assessing a variety of applications areas for indoor air quality (IAQ). This book synthesizes recent developments, presents case studies, and discusses new methods in the area of air quality monitoring, all the while addressing public health concerns. The authors discuss the issues and solutions, including IoT systems that can provide a continuous flow of data retrieved from cost-effective sensors that can be used in multiple applications.The authors present the leading IoT technologies, applications, algorithms, systems, and future scope in this multi-disciplinary domain.
Von der Idee zum Produkt In der Baubranche nimmt die Nachfrage nach innovativen Produkten stetig zu. Produktentwicklung Architektur zeigt an ausgewählten Beispielen, wie planende Disziplinen zu diesen Innovationen im Bauen beitragen können. Einführende Essays erörtern übergreifend den thematischen und methodischen Rahmen. Case Studies zeigen exemplarisch die Umsetzung von Ideen zu Prototypen oder zu Produkten. Impulse setzen, Grenzen verschieben, Netzwerke aufbauen und erweitern, Ressourcen schonen, Planungswerkzeuge entwickeln und optimieren sowie additive Verfahren einsetzen – all diese Arbeitsprozesse werden durchgespielt und so die erforderliche Zusammenarbeit der vielfältigen Akteure im Bauwesen verdeutlicht. Die wegweisenden Lösungsansätze machen so die Rolle der angewandten Wissenschaften als gelebter Kooperation von Hochschule und Wirtschaft anschaulich wie die interdisziplinäre Vernetzung der Fachgebiete und Experten. Vorgestellt werden Projekte interdisziplinärer Zusammenarbeit wie die „Algen-Fassade“, die zu einer Realisierung eines Gebäudes mit einer Bioreaktorfassade auf der Internationalen Bauausstellung in Hamburg 2012 führte, oder die „Gedruckte Gebäudehülle“ als Ergebnis eines kooperativen Forschungsprojekts, das freie Formen aus 3D-Computerverfahren für die Fassadengestaltung generiert.
The classic work on the evaluation of city form. What does the city's form actually mean to the people who live there? What can the city planner do to make the city's image more vivid and memorable to the city dweller? To answer these questions, Mr. Lynch, supported by studies of Los Angeles, Boston, and Jersey City, formulates a new criterion—imageability—and shows its potential value as a guide for the building and rebuilding of cities. The wide scope of this study leads to an original and vital method for the evaluation of city form. The architect, the planner, and certainly the city dweller will all want to read this book.
This proceedings volume of the Challenging Glass 4 & COST Action TU0905 Final Conference, held 6-7 February 2014 at the EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland, represents the Final Action Publication of the European research network COST Action TU0905 “Structural Glass – Novel design methods and next generation products”. It contains nearly 100 peer-reviewed papers – published by more than 180 authors from 22 different countries – that focus on the architectural and structural applications of glass in structures and facades. As such, it provides a profound state-of-the-art of structural glass design and engineering. A must-read for all architects, engineers, scientists, industry partners and other enthusiasts interested in this rapidly evolving and challenging domain.
