Robotic fabrication in architecture, art, and design is a relatively young discipline, whose focus is on applied research, performed on the one hand by young designers, artists and researchers from the “digital generation” and on the other by innovative firms and startups, researching applications that go beyond typical industry solutions. This
is reflected in the structure of this book, which does not consist solely of full-length scientific papers but has four distinct sections: workshop papers, research papers, project papers, and industry papers.

Author(s)/Editor(s): Thomas Leslie | Size: 192 MB | Format:PDF full colour | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: University of Illinois Press | Year: 2013 | pages: 265 | ISBN: 0252037545
For more than a century, Chicago's skyline has included some of the world's most distinctive and inspiring buildings. This history of the Windy City's skyscrapers begins in the key period of reconstruction after the Great Fire of 1871 and concludes in 1934 with the onset of the Great Depression, which brought architectural progress to a standstill. During this time, such iconic landmarks as the Chicago Tribune Tower, the Wrigley Building, the Marshall Field and Company Building, the Chicago Stock Exchange, the Palmolive Building, the Masonic Temple, the City Opera, Merchandise Mart, and many others rose to impressive new heights, thanks to innovations in building methods and materials. Solid, earthbound edifices of iron, brick, and stone made way for towers of steel and plate glass, imparting a striking new look to Chicago's growing urban landscape.
Thomas Leslie reveals the daily struggles, technical breakthroughs, and negotiations that produced these magnificent buildings. He also considers how the city's infamous political climate contributed to its architecture, as building and zoning codes were often disputed by shifting networks of rivals, labor unions, professional organizations, and municipal bodies.
Featuring more than a hundred photographs and illustrations of the city's physically impressive and beautifully diverse architecture, Chicago Skyscrapers, 1871–1934 highlights an exceptionally dynamic, energetic period of architectural progress in Chicago.

The discipline of architecture has gone through something of a metamorphosis in recent years. There is evidence of a clear shift both in the nature of debates within architecture and in its relationship with other academic This invaluable reader brings together the core writings on architecture by key philosophers and cultural theorists of the Twentieth Century.
This careful selection of the very best theoretical writings offers a refreshing take on the question of architecture and provocatively rethinks many of the accepted tenets of architectural theory from a broader cultural perspective.

Specification for Aluminum Structures: The 2010 Specification for Aluminum Structures is the first unified allowable strength design and load and resistance factor design aluminum Specification. It provides rules for determining the strength of aluminum structural components and minimum strengths for wrought, cast, and welded aluminum alloys and aluminum fasteners. Commentary: discusses the provisions in the Specification for Aluminum Structures and provides references. Material Properties: includes alloy and temper designation systems for wrought and cast aluminum alloys; comparative characteristics of wrought alloys; foreign alloy designations correlated with US alloy designations; and typical mechanical and physical properties, including thermal expansion, electrical conductivity, and density (all in US and SI units) Design Guide: addresses structural design issues not included in the Specification for Aluminum Structures, including diaphragms, adhesive bonded joints, aluminum composite material, extrusion design, corrosion prevention, fire protection, sustainability, and design references for aluminum structural components in automobiles, bridges, rail cars, ships, pressure vessels, pipe, and storage tanks. Section Properties: lists dimensions and section properties for aluminum channels, I-beams, angles, tees, zees, square and rectangular tube, round tube, pipe, and roofing and siding, as well as sheet metal and wire gauges Design Aids: provides buckling constants, allowable stress tables for various alloys, allowable load tables for channels and I-beams in bending, tread plate, roofing and siding; fastener strengths, minimum bend radii for aluminum sheet and plate, wire, and rod, design stresses for groove and fillet welds, and beam formulas Illustrative Design Examples: includes structural design calculation examples based on the Specification for Aluminum Structures.

BS 4449:2005+A3:2016 Steel for the reinforcement of concrete. Weldable reinforcing steel. Bar, coil and decoiled product. Specification
Author(s): BSI
Published By:BSI
Published Year:2005
Size: 1 MB
Quality:Original preprint
Abstract: BS 4449 is intended for manufacturers, fabricators and purchasers of ribbed reinforcing steel (bars, coils and decoiled products) for the reinforcement of concrete structures. It provides designations based on the grade of steel, the product form and dimensions. The standard is used to specify all normal technical requirements for reinforcing steels, including chemical analysis, mechanical properties, rib geometry and tolerances on dimensions.
