A Handyman’s Guide to Repairing and Understanding Your Home

This survey of lightweight specialty structures provides in-depth case studies supplemented with technical guidance and an overview of fundamental theories.Drawing on almost 75 years of combined professional and academic experience, the authors guide readers through design of lightweight systems: spaceframes, grid shells, cable nets, ETFE membranes, rails, stairs, and canopies. Each chapter provides an overview of the evolution of each system and provides technical references for further study. Images, details and calculations from 18 actual projects showcase the process of design and the importance of close collaboration among all members of the project team. These case studies include discussion of design intent, analysis methods, architectural constraints, detailing, fabrication, and construction methods. Because lightweight structures blur the lines between architecture, engineering and fabrication, care is taken to share key lessons learned from over half a century of firsthand design. These topics can be highly technical and broadly extensive, and this book serves as a tractable introduction for designers.Written for structural architecture students and early career professionals, this book is an essential introduction to the fundamentals of each lightweight structural system.

Recent Advances in Thin-walled Structures presents the current state-of-the-art in this important research field. The book is dedicated to the contributions of Professor Dinar Camotim, who is one of the most prominent researchers in the field of thin-walled metal structures worldwide, who recently retired. Within the book nine leading international experts present their most recent and important research findings. The book begins with an introductory chapter that describes the contributions that Professor Dinar Camotin has made to the field during his long and established career and then each subsequent chapter focuses on different cutting-edge topics that have been written by world-renowned experts. The book will be a valuable reference resource for all those who are involved in the design and optimization of thin-walled structures presenting the latest achievements in the field, which will help them to address current challenges and prepare for future developments, and achievements.

Microcapsule-based intelligent resilience concretes are being widely recognized as a remedial technique to improve the durability of concrete. Microcapsule-based Intelligent Resilience in Concrete: Design, Performance and Evaluation provides an overview of the creation and further development of novel microcapsule-based self-resilience systems and their applications in concrete structures. The three comprehensive self-resilience systems - namely physical, chemical and bionic restoration systems - are discussed in detail: together with the major challenges regarding evaluation and future developments in self-resilience in concrete structures

Geopolymer Concrete: Advancements in Performance and Sustainability is a thorough guide on a research topic in which incremental progress has been made in recent years. The book opens with fundamental information, such as properties and production (both design and manufacturing techniques). It then includes various applications and useful LCA analysis. Recent advances with a particular focus on improvements in durability, strength, and thermal performance are discussed next, with valuable data supplied by real-world case studies. Considerations related to the material’s environmental impact, challenges, barriers to its adoption, and other insights into current standards and regulations conclude the coverage. This multifaceted resource serves not only as a unique source of information for readers in academia and industry seeking to stay current in their field, but may also prove to be worthwhile reading for those professionals responsible for better and more sustainable construction enterprises.

The magnitude of error in building a skyscraper is staggeringly large. Flaws in engineering take on exponential importance with every level you go up. The cost of mistakes can easily multiply into tens of millions of dollars. If a piece of plywood isn't secured properly and flies off the deck, someone down below might end up dead. That's the horror of the business. It's also the beauty.
Autobiography of a Skyscraper-documenting in both words and pictures the making of 1000M, a 74-story gleaming tower in the heart of Chicago-is the story of the most dynamic workplace one could ever imagine. From the financiers who secure the many hundreds of millions of dollars needed for construction to the installers who jump atop the window frames from nearly a thousand feet up in the air, hundreds of people work together in the miracle of organization that is building a skyscraper. It is an orchestra, where no matter how small the part, everyone must play in tune and together.
The conductor of this particular orchestra is Francis Greenburger, a real estate titan with nearly half a century of investing in and developing properties around the world. However, just as 1000M was built by a wide array of skills, so&nbsp;Autobiography of a Skyscraper&nbsp;weaves the personal accounts of many of those involved into a single narrative of how a tower rises. Unlike traditional books on architecture and construction, it marries instructive and technical elements with the intimacy and pace of a memoir.
Architecture or urban planning buffs will be given a wide lens into understanding the impact of their work. For the casual reader, they will see the extent to which there's a gripping story behind every building in the sky.&nbsp;Autobiography of a Skyscraper&nbsp;will not only serve as a written record of this significant architectural addition to Chicago, but also as a blueprint for real estate developers, financial institutions, architects, city planners, designers, construction workers, and anybody else interested in what it takes to change a city's skyline.

Updated resource guiding readers through the analysis and choices required to ensure a building will perform as expected Robin Barry's Construction of Buildings was first published in 1958 as a five-volume set and rapidly became a standard work on the subject. Following Barry's death in 2002, a two-volume format was adopted with new authors. Developed from an earlier book by Tony Bryan, this new third volume, Barry's Construction Technology, extends the coverage to show how decisions about the design, production, maintenance and disposal of buildings may be thought through given the materials and technology available. The book challenges the reader to think about the consequences of making choices and decisions rather than relying on using what has been used before. Barry's Construction Technology: Analysis and Choice includes information on: <ul><li>The climate emergency and the low carbon agenda as a fundamental part of construction technology analysis and choice</li><li>Regenerative design, net zero buildings, and the circular economy for the built environment</li><li>Constraints that location, legislation, codes and standards, sustainability, insurance, and commercial pressures apply to the performance of buildings</li><li>Specific construction technology examples, with emphasis on questioning what we do and why, with the aim of informing and stimulating the reader to ask questions when confronted with all design and construction projects</li></ul> Barry's Construction Technology: Analysis and Choice is an essential, practical, and up-to-date reference for undergraduate students of all building construction programmes including surveying, construction management, architectural technology, and architecture.
