Das Praxis-Handbuch zu einer aktuellen Bauaufgabe Die Aufstockung von Gebäuden ist eine geeignete zeitgemäße Maßnahme zur Nachverdichtung bestehender Bebauungsstrukturen und zur energetischen Sanierung einzelner Gebäude. Beim Aufrichten zusätzlicher Geschosse belastet das Baumaterial Holz mit seinem geringen Eigengewicht die gebaute Struktur beträchtlich weniger als ein Massivbau. Weitere Vorteile der Holzbauweise sind die weitgehende Vorfertigung, die Energieeffizienz und das optimale Verhältnis von umbautem Raum. In praxisnaher Darstellung erläutert "Aufstocken mit Holz" die bautechnischen, energetischen, feuerpolizeilichen und ökologischen Aspekte. Anhand von 33 Einfamilienhäusern, Wohnbauten und Verwaltungsgebäuden aus der Schweiz, Deutschland und Österreich zeigt es außerdem, wie modern und elegant solche Aufbauten sein können.

This publication examines a wide range of unconventional concepts for reusing existing buildings, highlighting successful and innovative solutions, from the reuse of a gothic monastery or the former industrial buildings of Fiat Lingotto to the renovation of structures made of pre-cast concrete panels. a disused power station is converted into a cultural centre, an old barn is made into a residential house. All around us we encounter buildings whose original purpose has rendered them obsolete, and which now offer space for new uses. The construction and building requirements confronting the architect are as varied and individual as the buildings themselves. This publication examines a wide range of realized examples, highlighting successful and innovative solutions, from the rehabilitation of preserved monuments to the renovation or renewal of existing buildings, from the reuse of a gothic monastery or the former industrial buildings of Fiat Lingotto to the renovation of structures made of pre-cast concrete panels. Introductory essays by specialist authors examine the economical, technical, historical aspects of the topic, and the projects presented are documented fully with illustrations, plans and details which have been specially produced by the editorial department of DETAIL.

Nanostructured zinc oxide materials are capturing a great deal of interest thanks to their outstanding and multifunctional properties, enabling broad series of intervention in the field of nanomedicine. ZnO can be easily prepared in a broad variety of shapes and shows anticancer and antimicrobial properties that are of interest for tissue engineering, controlled delivery of therapeutics, and even theranostics. This book is thus dedicated to the most recent advances in the field, presented as a collection of research papers and reviews. It spans from the synthesis and characterization of ZnO nanomaterials to their applications in the nanomedicine field, ranging from anticancer nanotherapeutics to dental implants and antibacterial agents.

This groundbreaking text provides students with an overview and assessment of green criminology as well as a call to action. Green Criminology draws attention to the ways in which the political-economic organization of capitalism causes ecological destruction and disorganization. Focusing on real-world issues of green crime and environmental justice, chapters examine ecological withdrawals, ecological additions, toxic towns, wildlife poaching and trafficking, environmental laws, and nongovernmental environmental organizations. The book also presents an unintimidating introduction to research from the physical sciences on issues such as climate change, pollution levels, and the ecological footprint of humans, providing a truly interdisciplinary foundation for green criminological analysis. To help students succeed in the course-and to encourage them to see themselves as future green criminology researchers-the end-of-chapter study guides include: • Questions and Activities for Students that review topics students should be able to conceptualize and address.• Lessons for Researchers that suggest additional areas of research in the study of green crime.
