The complex interplay of conception and construction is intrinsic to the process of building. What kind of knowledge is necessary to realise the full spectrum of manifold design objectives?
"Constructing Architecture" conveys these fundamentals for students and professionals. It demonstrates an integral approach which combines specialised technical knowledge with the lyrical beauty of the illustrated buildings, and background information on cultural and historical aspects. Building is perceived not just as a feat of technology or engineering but the culmination of an artistic, creative act of will which can be more effectively translated into physical entities if the technical principles of construction are mastered.
Buildings that have set aesthetical and architectonic standards provide instructive case-studies. Over 1200 illustrations, plans, cross sections and drawings, a systematic and comparative catalogue of components documented in 1:20 scale, and a comprehensive subject index combine to make this an indispensable reference work.
