La 4eme edition francaise du Manuel

Nouvelle edition, enrichie du chapitre " Considerations autour du climat " consacre aux principes de base de la construction adaptee au climat.

De quel savoir technique et constructif a-t-on besoin pour realiser des projets architecturaux varies ? Construire l'architecture propose dans cette quatrieme edition francaise une vue d'ensemble des principes fondamentaux de la conception architecturale. Couronne par plusieurs prix internationaux et traduit en sept langues, cet ouvrage s'est impose comme manuel de cours dans de nombreuses grandes ecoles depuis sa parution en 2005. Il constitue par ailleurs un instrument de reference indispensable pour tous les architectes qui concoivent le processus de construction comme un rapport dialectique complexe entre conception et mise en oeuvre des materiaux.

Optant pour une approche globale de la construction, cet ouvrage combine connaissances techniques et questions esthetiques et les envisage conjointement dans la perspective de l'histoire des civilisations. La construction n'y est pas concue comme une simple question de technique ou de technologie, mais aussi comme le resultat d'une intention artistique qui se concretisera avec d'autant plus de coherence et de force que l'architecte maitrisera les principes techniques et constructifs de base.

Le livre se subdivise en quatre chapitres - Materiaux - Modules, Elements, Structures, Edifices - et contient en annexe un catalogue presentant les elements de construction. Tous les immeubles cites satisfont a de hautes exigences esthetiques ou jouent un role de premier plan dans l'histoire de l'architecture. D'une grande richesse iconographique, cet ouvrage contient plus de 1500 illustrations, plans et dessins de details legendes. Le catalogue permet de comparer les details de construction a l'echelle 1:20. Un index detaille et des titres courants a toutes les pages facilitent l'orientation et la recherche ciblee d'informations.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
