Book Description
Structures are an essential part of the construction process, yet they're one of the most difficult concepts to learn for architects. While structural engineers are responsible for making structural calculations about a building, architects should have sufficient knowledge about structural theory and analysis as they design. This illustrated manual from master of architectural drawing Frances DK Ching takes a new approach by focusing on the structural systems of a building. This practical structural design guide provides students and professionals all the information they need to make well-founded decisions during the development process. Las estructuras son un elemento esencial del proceso de construcción y constituyen, sin embargo, uno de los conceptos más difíciles de aprehender por parte de los arquitectos. Si bien los ingenieros de estructuras son los responsables de realizar el cálculo estructural de un edificio, los arquitectos deben tener los conocimientos adecuados y suficientes sobre teoría y análisis estructural para proyectarlo. Bajo el sello inconfundible del maestro del dibujo arquitectónico Francis D. K. Ching, este manual ilustrado propone un nuevo enfoque del diseño estructural que pone de relieve la relación de los sistemas estructurales de un edificio ?entendidos como un conjunto integrado de elementos con sus propios patrones, sistema y escala? con los aspectos fundamentales del proyecto arquitectónico. Los sistemas estructurales en los edificios se abordan a partir de distintos aspectos, como la composición formal y espacial, la adecuación al programa, la coordinación con otros sistemas del edificio y el cumplimiento de la normativa técnica, o la revisión del desarrollo histórico de los materiales y las estructuras empleadas en la arquitectura. Manual de estructuras ilustrado es, en definitiva, una guía práctica del diseño de estructuras que no solo concibe el diseño estructural como una parte más del proyecto sino que también proporciona a estudiantes y profesionales toda la información necesaria para tomar decisiones bien fundamentadas durante su proceso de desarrollo.

Book Description
A new edition of Francis D.K. Ching's illustrated guide to structural design Structures are an essential element of the building process, yet one of the most difficult concepts for architects to grasp. While structural engineers do the detailed consulting work for a project, architects should have enough knowledge of structural theory and analysis to design a building. Building Structures Illustrated takes a new approach to structural design, showing how structural systems of a building—such as an integrated assembly of elements with pattern, proportions, and scale—are related to the fundamental aspects of architectural design. The book features a one-stop guide to structural design in practice, a thorough treatment of structural design as part of the entire building process, and an overview of the historical development of architectural materails and structure. Illustrated throughout with Ching's signature line drawings, this new Second Edition is an ideal guide to structures for designers, builders, and students. Updated to include new information on building code compliance, additional learning resources, and a new glossary of terms Offers thorough coverage of formal and spatial composition, program fit, coordination with other building systems, code compliance, and much more Beautifully illustrated by the renowned Francis D.K. Ching Building Structures Illustrated, Second Edition is the ideal resource for students and professionals who want to make informed decisions on architectural design.

Book Description
The first European edition of Francis DK Ching’s classic visual guide to the basics of building construction. For nearly four decades, the US publication Building Construction Illustrated has offered an outstanding introduction to the principles of building construction. This new European edition focuses on the construction methods most commonly used in Europe, referring largely to UK Building Regulations overlaid with British and European, while applying Francis DK Ching’s clear graphic signature style. It provides a coherent and essential primer, presenting all of the basic concepts underlying building construction and equipping readers with useful guidelines for approaching any new materials or techniques they may encounter. European Building Construction Illustrated provides a comprehensive and lucid presentation of everything from foundations and floor systems to finish work. Laying out the material and structural choices available, it provides a full understanding of how these choices affect a building′s form and dimensions. Complete with more than 1000 illustrations, the book moves through each of the key stages of the design process, from site selection to building components, mechanical systems and finishes. Illustrated throughout with clear and accurate drawings that effectively communicate construction processes and materials Provides an overview of the mainstream construction methods used in Europe Based around the UK regulatory framework, the book refers to European level regulations where appropriate. References leading environmental assessment methods of BREEAM and LEED, while outlining the Passive House Standard Includes emerging construction methods driven by the sustainability agenda, such as structural insulated panels and insulating concrete formwork Features a chapter dedicated to construction in the Middle East, focusing on the Gulf States

Book Description
101 Rules of Thumb sets out the essential elements of low energy architecture in a fresh, intuitive way. In an area where ever-changing technology and complex legislation and can cloud the designer’s thought-processes, this book encourages the designer to think clearly and intuitively about the fundamentals of low energy buildings. With reliable, simple rules of thumb that will provide new ideas and refresh the designer’s palette, each page focuses on a single piece of advice or guidance along with a clear hand-drawn illustration, while there are also plenty of tips and more detailed information for those who wish to dig deeper. The emphasis is on passive low-energy principles, and the rules of thumb cover all the design fundamentals from site and location to orientation and form, peppered with some which will help the designer to think ‘outside the box’ about the design process itself.

Book Description
The Bokujinkai—or ‘People of the Ink’—was a group formed in Kyoto in 1952 by five calligraphers: Morita Shiryū, Inoue Yūichi, Eguchi Sōgen, Nakamura Bokushi, and Sekiya Yoshimichi. The avant-garde movement they launched aspired to raise calligraphy to the same level of international prominence as abstract painting. To this end, the Bokujinkai collaborated with artists from European Art Informel and American Abstract Expressionism, sharing exhibition spaces with them in New York, Paris, Tokyo, and beyond. The first English-language book to focus on the postwar history of Japanese calligraphy, Bokujinkai: Japanese Calligraphy and the Postwar Avant-Garde explains how the Bokujinkai rerouted the trajectory of global abstract art and attuned foreign audiences to calligraphic visualities and narratives.
