Infra-lightweight concrete combines the structural and thermal insulation functions of the building envelope in one monolithic material, thus providing new design options. The handbook is a practical guide to building with this new type of material. The architects and structural engineers of the interdisciplinary team of authors combine their findings from many years of research, including from a project in which the team investigated the architectural and structural potential of infra-lightweight concrete in multi-story residential buildings. In addition to essential information on designing with the material, including construction details, and an overview of the building physics properties, practical advice on building details is provided in the form of sizing tables and numerous details from various projects.

Paper and cardboard as sustainable building materials are currently the subject of research and testing in building practice. They can be produced inexpensively, are made from renewable raw materials and are completely recyclable. The focus of their application is on temporary uses, such as for transitional schools, emergency shelters or “microhomes”. Properly protected from moisture and fire, the material proves to be durable. Design and aesthetic qualities are by no means neglected, as case studies by Pritzker Prize winner Shigeru Ban demonstrate: the Chengdu Elementary School, the Paper Concert Hall in Aquila or the Cardboard Cathedral in Christchurch all provided a sign of hope after devastating earthquakes. This introduction explains the technology of building with cardboard and paper and shows a wide range of examples.

Textile Architektur begeistert die Menschheit weltweit schon seit vielen Jahrhunderten. In den letzten Jahrzehnten und Jahren konnten durch innovative Materialien neue Möglichkeiten geschaffen werden, diesen faszinierenden Werkstoff in der Architektur, im Bauwesen und auch im Design einzusetzen.Textilien faszinieren wegen der besonderen Formen, die diese Gewebestrukturen ermöglichen und aufgrund ihres außergewöhnlichen Charakters als weiche Materialien. Gemeinsam mit ihren funktionalen und konstruktiven Eigenschaften bieten sie ein Leistungsspektrum, das bei spektakulären, wie auch alltäglichen Aufgaben genutzt wird.Das Buch widmet sich den technischen Textilien in drei Teilen: Im ersten Kapitel wird das Material in seinen spezifischen Eigenschaften vorgestellt, das zweite Kapitel befasst sich mit den Anwendungen in den Bereichen Architektur, textile Fassaden, Sonnenschutz und Innenarchitektur unter besonderer Berücksichtigung von Verarbeitungsweisen und Konstruktionsprinzipien. Das dritte Kapitel dokumentiert eine Auswahl von 24 internationalen gebauten Projekten, um die verschiedenen Einsatzgebiete auch unmittelbar zu veranschaulichen. Textile architecture has been captivating humanity for many centuries. In recent years and decades, the emergence of innovative materials has created new opportunities to utilize this fascinating material in the fields of architecture, interior design, and design. Textiles derive their fascination from the special forms these fabric structures make possible and from their unusual character as soft materials. Together with their functional and structural properties, they possess a range of capabilities equally suitable for spectacular and everyday building tasks. This book deals with technical textiles in three sections: in the fi rst chapter, the material is introduced together with its specific properties; the second chapter deals with its uses in the areas of architecture, textile facades, solar protection, and interior design, with special attention to finishing techniques and construction principles. The third chapter illustrates the various fields of application with a selection of some twenty-four international built projects.
