Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro recopila, por vez primera, los ensayos del profesor Heyman sobre el funcionamiento de las estructuras de fábrica. Corresponde al profesor Heyman el mérito de haber "traducido" las teorías y teoremas del análisis límite a las fábricas. Esto supone, sin pérdida de rigor, una simplificación importante del aparato teórico pero, sobre todo, permite una compresión cualitativa ( y cuantitativa) del funcionamiento de estas construcciones. Así, es posible entender por qué las catedrales góticas tienen arbotantes, cuál es la función de los nervios de las bóvedas de crucería o cómo se comportan los puentes de piedra. Aún más, permite explicar la enorme estabilidad de las antiguas fábricas (el Panteón de Roma lleva en pie casi dos milenios sin reparaciones de importancia; Santa Sofía soporta desde el siglo VI sismos de importancia; los puentes romanos transportan cargas muy superiores a las de su época, etc.). Además, el análisis límite de las fábricas, permite interpretar correctamente y sin alarmismos la presencia, inevitable en estas construcciones, de grietas. Éstas no son, necesariamente, signos de ruina; simplemente expresan la naturaleza del material y la adaptación del edificio a los pequeños movimientos del entorno. En resumen, el libro es un "manual" de las estructuras de fábrica y mejorará el conocimiento sobre nuestro patrimonio construido.

Book excerpt: Un libro importantisismo para preparar su fbrica antes de poder comenzar producci?n justo-a-tiempo, o cualquier otro programa de mejoras. Crear una fbrica visual es el primer paso para lograr participacion de sus empleados, construir un mejor ambiente de trabajo, y obtener apoyo de su personal. Los casos especificos aqui expuestos seran especialmente utiles en companias dispuestas a mejorar sus operaciones pero no muy seguras sobre como empezar. La comunicacion visual hace que toda la informacion comunmente disponible se pueda entender directamente por todos los que la ven. Esta participacion aporta nueva luz y vida a la cultura de los lugares de trabajo. Michel Greif ha viajado por toda Europa y Estados Unidos estudiando el uso de la comunicacion visual y reuniendo materiales para este libro.

Download or read book The History of the Theory of Structures written by Karl-Eugen Kurrer and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-01-09 with total page 864 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the evolution of theory of structures and strength of materials - the development of the geometrical thinking of the Renaissance to become the fundamental engineering science discipline rooted in classical mechanics. Starting with the strength experiments of Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo, the author examines the emergence of individual structural analysis methods and their formation into theory of structures in the 19th century. For the first time, a book of this kind outlines the development from classical theory of structures to the structural mechanics and computational mechanics of the 20th century. In doing so, the author has managed to bring alive the differences between the players with respect to their engineering and scientific profiles and personalities, and to create an understanding for the social context. Brief insights into common methods of analysis, backed up by historical details, help the reader gain an understanding of the history of structural mechanics from the standpoint of modern engineering practice. A total of 175 brief biographies of important personalities in civil and structural engineering as well as structural mechanics plus an extensive bibliography round off this work.
Download or read book Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions written by Yohei Endo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-03 with total page 1474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers the peer-reviewed papers presented at the 13th International Conference on Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions (SAHC), held in Kyoto, Japan, on September 12-15, 2023. It highlights the latest advances and innovations in the field of conservation and restoration of historical and heritage structures. The conference topics encompass history of construction and building technology, theory and practice of conservation, inspection methods, non-destructive techniques and laboratory testing, numerical modeling and structural analysis, management of heritage structures and conservation strategies, structural health monitoring, repair and strengthening strategies and techniques, vernacular constructions, seismic analysis and retrofit, vulnerability and risk analysis, resilience of historic areas to climate change and hazard events, durability, and sustainability. As such the book represents an invaluable, up-to-the-minute tool, providing an essential overview of conservation of historical constructions, and offers an important platform to engineers, architects, archeologists, and geophysicists.

Download or read book Physical Models written by Bill Addis and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-09-25 with total page 1114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical models have been, and continue to be used by engineers when faced with unprecedented challenges, when engineering science has been non-existent or inadequate, and in any other situation when the engineer has needed to raise their confidence in a design proposal to a sufficient level to begin construction. For this reason, models have mostly been used by designers and constructors of highly innovative projects, when previous experience has not been available. The book covers the history of using of physical models in the design and development of civil and building engineering projects including bridges in the mid-18th century, William Fairbairn?s Britannia bridge in the 1840s, the masonry Aswan Dam in the 1890s, concrete dams in the 1920s, thin concrete shell roofs and the dynamic behaviour of tall buildings in earthquakes from the 1930s, tidal flow in estuaries and the acoustics of concert halls from the 1950s, and cable-net and membrane structures in the 1960s. Traditionally, progress in engineering has been attributed to the creation and use of engineering science, the understanding materials properties and the development of new construction methods. The book argues that the use of reduced scale models have played an equally important part in the development of civil and building engineering. However, like the history of engineering design itself, this crucial contribution has not been widely reported or celebrated. The book concludes with reviews of the current use of physical models alongside computer models, for example, in boundary layer wind tunnels, room acoustics, seismic engineering, hydrology, and air flow in buildings.
Download or read book Stereotomy written by José Calvo-López and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-08 with total page 719 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the general concepts in stereotomy and its connection with descriptive geometry, the social background of its practitioners and theoreticians, the general methods and tools of this technology, and the specific procedures for the members built in hewn stone, including arches, squinches, stairs and vaults, ending with a chapter discussing the open problems in this field. Thus, it can be used as a reference book in the subject, but it can also read as a compelling narrative on this subject, one of the main branches of pre-industrial technology. Construction in hewn stone requires the use of geometrical methods and tools to assure that individual stones, either blocks or voussoirs, fit with one another and conform to the general shape of walls, arches or vaults. During the Late Middle Ages and the Renaissance, such techniques and instruments were developed empirically by masons and architects. Later on, learned mathematicians and engineers introduced refinements in these procedures and this branch of knowledge, known as stereotomy, furnished much material to descriptive geometry, a science born with the French Revolution which provided the foundation for projective geometry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an exploration of the arch from the points of view of architecture, mathematics, engineering, construction history, and cultural symbolism. Leonardo da Vinci described the arch as "two weaknesses which, leaning on each other, become a strength," a metaphor for the way that science and art lean on each other to strengthen our lives.
