Once slighted as mere copying from China, the arts of Japan are now seen as a unique alternation of advances and withdrawals. At times the islanders produced Chinese-style works of great beauty, unmatched on the continent. When they chose to be independent, their art differs at every level. Sculpture, and even more painting, are concrete, sensuous, and emotional, speaking directly to all. All that was most native in architectural taste survived the periods of Chinese monumentality - huge temples and gridiron city plans - with little change. The rambling, wood-paper-and-bamboo dwelling re-emerged 1000 years ago, almost as it may still be seen today.

Author(s)/Editor(s): William F. Riley, Leroy D. Sturges | Size: 89 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Scanner | Publisher: Wiley | Year: 1993 | pages: 600 | ISBN: 0471512419
Offers a refreshing approach to mechanics through a careful, step-by-step development of basic concepts. Exceptional, full-color art gives clarity and realism to the illustrations. Greater emphasis on free body diagrams provides a strong foundation. Covers moments of inertia and internal distribution extensively. Introduces distributed loads early for use in all subsequent rigid body equilibrium chapters, offering greater flexibility in the types of loads that can be applied to rigid bodies.

In the last two decades, the biannual ECPPM (European Conference on Product and Process Modelling) conference series has provided a unique platform for the presentation and discussion of the most recent advances with regard to the ICT (Information and Communication Technology) applications in the AEC/FM (Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Facilities Management) domains.
ECPPM 2014, the 10th European Conference on Product and Process Modelling, was hosted by the Department of Building Physics and Building Ecology of the Vienna University of Technology, Austria (17-19 September 2014). This book entails a substantial number of high-quality contributions that cover a large spectrum of topics pertaining to ICT deployment instances in AEC/FM, including:
- BIM (Building Information Modelling)
- ICT in Civil engineering & Infrastructure
- Human requirements & factors
- Computational decision support
- Commissioning, monitoring & occupancy
- Energy & management
- Ontology, data models, and IFC (Industry Foundation Classes)
- Energy modelling
- Thermal performance simulation
- Sustainable buildings
- Micro climate modelling
- Model calibration
- Project & construction management
- Data & information management
As such, eWork and eBusiness in Architecture, Engineering and Construction 2014 represents a rich and comprehensive resource for academics and professionals working in the interdisciplinary areas of information technology applications in architecture, engineering, and construction.

This book provides an insightful overview of the current state of earth building. The author approaches the subject from the perspective of the building material’s life cycle, featuring in-depth explanations of the cycle's individual steps: extraction and classification of construction soil; production of earth building materials and earthen structures; planning, construction and renovation of earth buildings; and demolition and recycling of earthen structures. This unique resource provides examples of sophisticated earth building projects and illustrates the diverse applications of earth as a building material. Compared to conventional mineral building materials, earth possesses particularly positive ecological qualities such as its energy balance and recyclability. Architects, engineers, students, manufacturers and distributors of building materials, building contractors, building biologists, public authorities and preservationists will benefit from this book’s ample coverage of restoring, optimizing and building with this material of the past, present and future.
