Abstract

"Glass in Building" offers a compact and illustrated overview of the material-appropriate use of glass in building construction and provides information on designing with glass and producing and using specialized glass products, as well as on the building and planning regulations that must be taken into account when constructing with glass. "Glass in Building" opens up a whole range of fascinating design possibilities for the planning architect. Glass has long served as a translucent room closing element, but its range of possible uses is actually much wider. It not only offers protection against the external world, for example, noise or fire; despite its apparent fragility, it can even take on load-bearing functions in supporting structures. In combination with various different finishing methods, materials, and coatings, it also satisfies exacting structural-physical standards. "Glass in Building" offers a clear, compact, and illustrated overview of the material-appropriate use of this varied and versatile material in building construction and provides information that goes far beyond the basics on designing with glass and producing and using specialized glass products, as well as on the building and planning regulations that must be taken into account when constructing with glass. A selection of exemplary realized projects rounds out the theoretical section. Das Bauen mit Glas eröffnet dem planenden Architekten faszinierende gestalterische Möglichkeiten. Schon lange dient es als lichtdurchlässiger Raumabschluss, ist aber weitaus vielfältiger einsetzbar: Glas bietet nicht nur Schutz vor der Aussenwelt, etwa gegen Lärm oder Feuer, sondern kann trotz seiner vermeintlichen Zerbrechlichkeit sogar lastabtragende Funktionen innerhalb eines Tragwerks übernehmen. In Kombination mit verschiedenen Veredelungsmethoden, Materialien und Beschichtungen erfüllt es auch hohe bauphysikalische Anforderungen. "Detail Practice: Konstruktiver Glasbau" liefert einen kompakten, anschaulichen Überblick über den materialgerechten Einsatz dieses facettenreichen Baustoffs in der Baukonstruktion und vermittelt weit über die Grundlagen hinausreichende Informationen zum Entwerfen mit Glas, zur Herstellung und Anwendung spezieller Glasprodukte sowie zu den baurechtlichen Regelungen, die im Glasbau zu berücksichtigen sind. Eine Auswahl beispielhafter realisierter Projekte rundet den theoretischen Teil ab.

Abstract

Le verre occupe depuis toujours une place à part dans l'architecture grâce aux possibilités uniques qu'il offre pour la construction de bâtiments légers, ouverts et lumineux. Mais les formidables développements dont il a récemment fait l'objet ont suscité un tel engouement qu'il est devenu le matériau de prédilection des constructeurs. La nouvelle palette de possibilités présentée par ce matériau a fait naître une très forte demande d'informations de la part des architectes et planificateurs. C'est pour répondre à leurs besoins que cet ouvrage a été conçu. Il traite de manière exhaustive des diverses possibilités créatives et constructives offertes par le verre, des propriétés et des aspects physiques de ce matériau comme de son comportement sous différentes sollicitations. Il consacre une large place aux possibilités d'économie d'énergie réalisables par une utilisation appropriée du verre ainsi qu'un vaste éventail de détails sur les techniques de fixation et de construction. Un ouvrage qui simposera comme la référence en la matière. La première partie de ce livre se divise en 2 parties, tout d'abord il retrace le parcours du verre des origines au modernisme, ensuite il situe l'importance du matériau dans la seconde moitié du 20 e siècle. La deuxième partie étudie les principes du verre comme matériau de construction et ses relations avec les différentes énergies. la troisième partie développe les détails de construction. Et la quatrième partie montre son application au travers d'exemples choisis de réalisations architecturales.

Abstract

The author ... one of the leading figures of the Dutch engineering office ABT, describes with great expertise designs, concepts and realized projects, in which glass elements fulfil crucial architectural tasks. In the advanced architecture of today the use of this transparent material goes well beyond self-supporting functions and comprises structural parts such as columns, walls, floors and roofs. One of the characteristic material properties of glass, to break suddenly and completely under certain conditions, seems only at first glance incompatible with the static responsibilities of structural elements; each of the construction achievements presented demonstrates how the engineer is challenged every time again to refute that assumption. The various creative solutions, arrived at in close cooperation with some of the most interesting architects of the present, are carefully documented by a multitude of construction drawings, sketches and photographs.

Abstract

Glass has long transformed the architectural landscape. From the Crystal Palace through to the towering glass spires of today's cities, few architectural materials have held such immense symbolic resonance in the modern era. 'The Age of Glass' explores the cultural and technological ascension of glass in modern and contemporary architecture. Showing how the use of glass is driven as much by changing cultural concerns as it is by developments in technology and style, it traces the richly interwoven material, symbolic, and ideological histories of glass to show how it has produced and dispersed meaning in architecture over the past two centuries. The book's chapters focus on key moments within the modern history of architecture, moments when glass came to the forefront of architectural thought, and which illustrate how glass has been used at different times to project different cultural ideas.

Abstract

The current material customer of translucent building materials Translucent materials give architects far more possibilities to exploit the sensual interplay of light and the fascination of interior-exterior interaction than plain glass, a fact proved by their increasing application. Traditionally, stretched paper, finely-cut stone, or stained glass were used to create mood and atmosphere. These are now giving way to a new generation of innovative materials - composite glass, synthetic panels, membranes and perforated metals.

Abstract

Photovoltaics is one of the most promising technologies for global energy production in the context of the energy crisis and climate change.Photovoltaic modules are now available in such a wide range of forms that nearly all of the usual fl at parts of buildings can be provided with photovoltaic capabilities. In addition to producing energy, these modules offer a number of synergistic effects, since increasingly they are integrated as glazing elements and can perform such other functions as weather protection, solar control, and providing privacy. Special modules such as solar roofing tiles and solar membranes are available for particular applications.This book explains the technology, presents the available products, and communicates clearly how they are used in buildings, with a particular focus on large-scale buildings.It provides architects with all of the necessary know-how to provide a new or existing building with a photovoltaic system, covering both planning and implementation.Last but not least, it is a valuable practical instrument to prepare for communicating with the relevant manufacturers and clients. Photovoltaik ist im Kontext von Energiekrise und Klimawandel eine der vielversprechendsten Technologien zur globalen Energiegewinnung.Photovoltaikmodule stehen inzwischen in einer solch grossen Bandbreite zur Verfügung, dass nahezu alle üblichen flächigen Bauteile mit photovoltaischer Funktion versehen werden können. Neben der Energiegewinnung bieten die Module zahlreiche Synergieeffekte, indem sie zunehmend wie Verglasungsbauteile eingesetzt werden und weitere Funktionen wie Witterungs-, Sonnen-, und Sichtschutz übernehmen. Für spezielle Anwendungen stehen Sondermodule wie z.B. Solardachziegel und Solarmembranen zur Verfügung. Dieses Buch erklärt die Technologie, zeigt die verfügbaren Produkte und vermittelt anschaulich deren Einsatz am Gebäude mit Schwerpunkt auf großmaßstäblichen Bauten. Es liefert Architekten alles notwendige Know-how, um ein neues oder bestehendes Gebäude mit einer Photovoltaikanlage auszustatten - Planung und Ausführung verbindend. Nicht zuletzt ist es ein wertvolles Arbeitsinstrument, um sich auf die Kommunikation mit den relevanten Herstellern und den Bauherren vorzubereiten.
