The home defines us, and the way we are housed is central to our self image and culture. While always addressing market imperatives in terms of land use and form, housing is at one end of the spectrum obsessed with style and formal pattern-making, at the other with regulation and normative concepts of family. This book explores a range of contemporary American housing grouped according to three common typologies found in both small and large cities: high-rise, reuse, and infill.
The concept for the publication evolved from three visiting critic studios at the Syracuse University School of Architecture. The studios focused on these three building types, employing a case-study format as the basis for each studio’s design courses. Jared Della Valle and Andy Bernheimer of Della Valle Bernheimer based their studio on a high-rise site in the Hudson Yards of New York City that was an actual site for their firm; Julie Eizenberg of Koning Eizenberg Architecture set her project within the context of the renovation of an abandoned warehouse in downtown Syracuse; and Stanley Saitowitz of Stanley Saitowitz/Natoma Architects activated a variety of infill sites located along the expansion of the BART system in San Francisco. These studios sought to explore and bring together the most enlightened thinking about various forms of housing and other commercial types of development that might be engaged as they define our culture and revitalize our urban centers. Each architect approached the pedagogy of the studio in a different way and contributed an essay to this publication; they also, like curators of urban design, suggested projects that exemplify national models.
The suite of three studios and this publication were made possible through the generous support of Judith Greenberg Seinfeld, a Syracuse University trustee and an advisory board member of the School of Architecture. She understood the importance of giving students the tools to participate broadly in making and remaking our cities. We are appreciative of her vision and commitment to the work of the School and the University.

‘Many people are asking whether Britain took the wrong road to housing
lower-income families. This well documented history of what a number of
other European countries did enables this question to be answered.’
Brian Abel-Smith, Professor of Social Administration, London School of Economics.
Hovels to high rise traces how governments became involved in replacing
industrial revolution urban slums with mass high-rise, high-density concrete
estates; how huge inflows of rural and foreign migrants ended up
reoccupying slums, then being housed in the poorest estates; how
governments set up rescue programmes to reverse spiralling conditions on
the worst estates; and how state-sponsored housing made a significant
comeback in all countries at the outset of the 1990s.
Using detailed research on five countries—France, Germany, Britain,
Denmark and Ireland—and carried out with close reference to the central
housing bodies in each area, Anne Power highlights the convergence in
housing experience between the countries and the lessons that can be
learnt. By describing the historical foundations of the developments in
housing structure, covering the different traditions of inner-city
development, tenant-oriented housing, co-operatives, mass-rented building,
rural and suburban owner-occupation, private landlords, and large local
authority projects, she provides a comprehensive study of housing systems
in each country showing that despite the differing backgrounds the
problems are often the same. She looks at the attempts governments have
made to fund state housing initiatives that try to avoid the development of
ghettos found so often in America. As the similarities and differences
throughout Europe are explored and the changing structure of social
housing is charted, the author is able to draw a picture of European-wide
political commitment to urban integration, while warning that there is still a
trend towards polarization that will affect the multi-lingual, multi-ethnic
urban societies of the future.

In a time of recession, the challenge of building and planning for tall buildings has become even more complex; the economics of development, legislative and planning frameworks, and the local politics of development must be navigated by those wishing to design and construct new tall buildings which fit within the fabric of their host cities.
This book is a timely contribution to the debate about new tall buildings and their role and effect on our cities. It is divided into two main parts. In part one, the relationship between tall buildings and planning is outlined, followed by an exploration of the impacts that construction of tall buildings can have. It focuses, in particular, on the conservation debates that proposals for new tall buildings raise. The first part ends with an analysis of the way in which planning strategies have evolved to deal with the unique consequences of tall buildings on their urban locations. The second part of the book focuses on seven examples of medium-sized cities dealing with planning and conservation issues, and implications that arise from tall buildings. These have been chosen to reflect a wide range of methods to either encourage or to control tall buildings that cities are deploying. The case studies come from across the western world, covering England (Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle and Birmingham), Norway (Oslo), Ireland (Dublin) and Canada (Vancouver) and represent a broad spectrum of approaches to dealing with this issue.
In drawing together the experiences of these varied cities, the book contributes to the ongoing debate about the role of the tall building in our cities, their potential impacts, and experiences of those who use and inhabit them. The conclusions outline how cities should approach the strategic planning of tall buildings, as well as how they should deal with the consequences of individual buildings, particularly on the built heritage.

This book discusses design aspects of steel fiber-reinforced concrete (SFRC) members, including the behavior of the SFRC and its modeling. It also examines the effect of various parameters governing the response of SFRC members in detail. Unlike other publications available in the form of guidelines, which mainly describe design methods based on experimental results, it describes the basic concepts and principles of designing structural members using SFRC as a structural material, predominantly subjected to flexure and shear. Although applications to special structures, such as bridges, retaining walls, tanks and silos are not specifically covered, the fundamental design concepts remain the same and can easily be extended to these elements. It introduces the principles and related theories for predicting the role of steel fibers in reinforcing concrete members concisely and logically, and presents various material models to predict the response of SFRC members in detail. These are then gradually extended to develop an analytical flexural model for the analysis and design of SFRC members.

Elastic Modulus, Poisson's Ratio, and Compressive Strength Relationships at Early Ages
Author(s): Francis A. Oluokun, Edwin G. Burdette, and J. Harold Deatherage
Published By:ACI Materials Journal
Published Year:1991
Abstract: Presents the results of an experimental investigation into the relative relationships between the elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, and the cylinder compressive strength of concrete, especially at early ages. The applicability to concrete at early ages of some of the existing relations between these properties was also researched. Tests were performed on four different concrete mixes using conventional 6 x 12 in. concrete cylinder test specimens. Test results were obtained for ages ranging from 6 hr to 28 days. Analyses of test results show that the compressive strength and the elastic modulus are related, and an increase in one is generally similarly reflected in an increase in the other. The commonly accepted relationship that the elastic modulus of concrete is proportional to the 0.5 power of the cylinder compressive strength was found to be accurate for the elastic modulus at ages 12 hr and above for all concrete mixes investigated. Poisson's ratio was found to be insensitive to both the age and the richness of the concrete mix and did not change appreciably with compressive strength development.
