Abstract

Born in the Industrial Revolution, the factory has long been considered like a monster of iron, subjugating the individual to the collective in an act of mass dehumanisation.Turning away from the pure functionality for which it was built, the factory is evolving into an aesthetic space, sometimes transformed into modern lofts or a museum of contemporary art. The surprising photographs featured in this work help us rediscover the volume, purity of line, beauty, and stunningly modern architecture of these steelboned monuments.

Abstract

The Economic Crisis has refocused attention on the central nature of the real economy. Industry is once more seen as an opportunity for the future, naturally according to new patterns of production, distribution and consumption. This entails a new factory template, one that can meet the demands of globalisation while also establishing a sustainable relationship with its surroundings, in a social and environmental sense. There is clearly also a need to address the physical design of workplaces in an innovative way, providing environments that are suited to radical changes in the realms of technology, safety and amenity. Neither the historical examples of large-scale industrial architecture from the heroic age of Modernism, nor those of the post-war industrial boom, can match the different needs of society and the market today. This book aims to bridge a gap then, by providing useful references for those who have to contend with the design of industrial complexes. It is based on the experience of a design practice that, for decades, has dealt with the increasingly detailed and sophisticated issues related to industrial design.

Abstract

This handbook introduces a methodical approach and pragmatic concept for the planning and design of changeable factories, proven in many industrial projects. In the first part, change drivers of manufacturing enterprises and the resulting new challenges are considered. The second part concerns the design of the production facilities on the different factory levels under functional, organizational, architectural and strategic aspects considering environmental, health and safety aspects. The third part is dedicated to the planning process that is based on a synergetic interaction of process and space. The accompanying project management of the planning and construction phase and the facility management for the effective utilization of the built premises close the book. The Authors Prof. em. Dr.-Ing. Hans-Peter Wiendahl has been director for 23 years of the Institute of Factory planning and Logistics at the Leibniz University of Hannover in Germany. Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Architekt BDA Jürgen Reichardt is Professor at the Muenster school of architecture in Germany, partner of RMA Reichardt – Maas – Associate  Architects in Essen, Germany, and partner of BR Architects & Engineers Pvt. Ltd., (Managing Director: Architect Indranil Bhattacharya), in Bangalore, India. Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Peter Nyhuis is since 2003 Managing Director of the Institute of Factory Planning and Logistics at the Leibniz University of Hannover in Germany.

Abstract

Long considered an urban phenomenon, industrialization also transformed the American countryside. Lou Martin weaves the narrative of how the relocation of steel and pottery factories to Hancock County, West Virginia, created a rural and small-town working class - and what that meant for communities and for labor. The result is an illuminating consideration of capital mobility, the ways in which changing work experiences defined gender roles, and the erroneous but persistent myth that modernizing forces bulldozed docile local cultures.

Abstract

This book focuses on the spaces of production in cities that both comprise factories that are significant in their design and contribute to a vital urban environment. This book reexamines the historic modernist and contemporary factories through the lens of an urbanist while provoking the future of urban manufacturing. It shows that now factories are cleaner and greener they can be reintegrated in city life creating a new paradigm for sustainable urban industry that is also more self-sufficient. Illustrated with historic and contemporary photographs, manufacturing process diagrams, and infographics by MGMT Design.
