Download or read book The Franks in the Aegean written by Peter Lock and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the enormous literature on the crusades, the Frankish states in the Aegean (set up in the wake of the Fourth Crusade in 1204) have been seriously neglected by modern historians. Yet their history is both compelling in itself - these were the last crusader states to be set up in the eastern Mediterranean and among the last to fall to the Turks - and also valuable for the case study they offer in medieval colonialism. Peter Lock surveys the social, economic, religious and cultural aspects of the region within a broad political framework, and explores the clash of cultures between the Frankish interlopers and their Byzantine subjects. This is a major addition to crusading studies.
Download or read book The Archaeology of Medieval Greece written by Peter Lock and published by Oxbow Books Limited. This book was released on 1996 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greece's importance in the Middle Ages is often neglected by those more concerned with its Prehistoric or Classical past. But, as the colony of Frankish and Italian maritime Empires and as a haven for the Orthodox Church after the fall of Constantinople, the landscape of Greece is covered in a profusion of Medieval art and architecture. This text brings this heritage back to public attention.
Download or read book Air Structures written by Pete Silver and published by Laurence King Publishing. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Air can be used in a variety of ways to make lightweight, flexible structures. It can be used to make inflatable structures, mobile structures, and temporary buildings, it can also activate movable elements and act as a means of constructing buildings that would be impossible with conventional construction methods. This book looks at every facet of the subject, examining the different types of air structure: super pressure buildings, air beam structures, buoyant structures, inflatable structures, and many more. It also looks at the construction methods that use air, such as air-inflated steel, aerated concrete and blow moulding. Filled with photographs, models, drawings, and diagrams, this is the ideal book for curious students, designers and architects.
Download or read book Structural Engineering for Architects written by Pete Silver and published by Laurence King Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02-18 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an understanding of the fundamental theories and practice behind the creation of architectural structures. It aids the development of an intuitive understanding of structural engineering, bringing together technical and design issues. The book is divided into four sections: 'Structures in nature' looks at structural principles found in natural objects. 'Theory' covers general structural theory as well as explaining the main forces in engineering. 'Structural prototypes' includes examples of modelmaking and load testing that can be carried out by students. The fourth section, 'Case studies', presents a diverse range of examples from around the world – actual buildings that apply the theories and testing described in the previous sections. This accessible, informative text is illustrated with specially drawn diagrams, models, CAD visualizations, construction details and photographs of completed buildings. This book will give students and newly qualified architects a firm grasp of this essential topic.

Download or read book Guidobaldo Del Monte 1545 1607 Theory and Practice of the Mathematical Disciplines from Urbino to Europe written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guidobaldo Marquis dal Monte has long been identified as a key figure in the history of the mathematical disciplines in the Renaissance. The contributions brought together in this volume examine all the key aspects of the Marquis dal Monte's activities, ranging from mechanics and the science of perspective to architecture and geometry. Some of the essays provide intellectual analyses of Guidobaldo's works, including their significance and reception, others document his activities in the design of mathematical instruments, in civil and military architecture, and in his professional travels and contacts with Galileo. Many of the contributions rely on archival research shedding new light on his activities. As a result, Guidobaldo appears in a new light and as a key figure not only in the Duchy of Urbino, but also on an Italian and European stage.

This book was released on 2021-08-12 with total page 601 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the relationship between design and technology is critical to the understanding of architecture. This book clearly explains the core aspects of architectural technology: structural physics, structural elements and forms, heating, lighting, environmental control and computer modelling. The third edition includes six new case studies, more on structural types, new information on construction detailing, passive building principles and designing for different climatic conditions. This essential introduction to architecture will help students to integrate their design thinking with the appropriate structural and environmental solutions.

Download or read book Creating Shapes in Civil and Naval Architecture written by Horst Nowacki and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design, construction and verification of complex two- and three-dimensional shapes in architecture and ship geometry have always been a particularly demanding part of the art of engineering. Before science-based structural design and analysis were applied in the construction industries, i.e., before 1800, the task of conceiving, documenting and fabricating such shapes constituted the most significant interface between practitioner's knowledge and learned knowledge, above all in geometry. The history of shape development in these two disciplines therefore promises especially valuable insights into the knowledge history of shape creation. This volume is a collection of contributions by outstanding scholars in their fields of study, archaeology, history of architecture and ship design, in classic antiquity, the Middle Ages and the early modern period. The volume presents a comparative knowledge history in these two distinct branches of construction engineering.

Book excerpt: "Be honest first and if you are honest you will be beautiful, but do not attempt to be beautiful and dishonest."Sir Owen Williams. Sir Owen Williams' influence on architecture of the first half of the twentieth century stemmed from a demonstration of what a functionalist approach to architecture could achieve. Blurring the roles of engineer and architect, during the period between the wars Williams produced a series of innovative reinforced concrete buildings whose aesthetic treatment depended upon an expression of their structures.
