Описание: Until recently, the development of building materials has focused on producing cheaper and more durable construction materials. Now more attention is given
to the environmental issues. "Sustainability of Construction Materials" brings together a wealth of recent research on the subject.
It provides a comprehensive and detailed
analysis of the sustainability of these materials: aggregates, wood, bamboo, vegetable fibers, masonry, cement, concrete and cement replacement materials, metals and alloys, glass,
and engineered wood products. Final chapters cover the use of recycled tire rubber in civil engineering works, the durability of sustainable materials, and nanotechnology in sustainable
construction.
Описание: Exercises in Building Construction, Fourth Edition provides a fully revised, user-friendly exercise book to supplement the fourth edition of Fundamentals of Building Construction. * Includes more than 40 exercises in "real world" construction problem solving; encourages students to apply information learned in classroom. * Exercises are clearly presented with detailed line drawings; easy for student and instructor to follow. * Revised to correspond withe fourth edition of Fundamentals of Building Construction. * Includes companion web pages for instructor use, containing Answer Key and sample drawings.
Описание: Now in its Sixth Edition, Fundamentals of Building Construction is an essential textbook that has been used by thousands of students annually in schools of architecture, construction management and technology. The best-selling reference focuses on the basic materials and methods used in building construction. Emphasizing common construction systems such as light wood frame, masonry bearing wall, steel frame, and reinforced concrete construction, the new edition includes new information on building materials properties, the latest on "pre-engineered" building components, sustainability issues, and reflects the latest building codes and standards. Available separately, Exercises in Building Construction 6E, supplements the text with 47 homework and laboratory assignments.
Описание: Established as one of the leading books on the materials and methods of construction, the Ninth Edition of Construction was renamed Olin's Construction to reflect the brand identity that Harold Olin brought to this standard text. The most comprehensive text on the subject, Olin's Construction Volumes 1 and 2 cover not only the materials and methods of building construction, but also building systems and equipment, utilities, properties of materials, and current design and contracting requirements. Whether a builder, designer, contractor, or manager, readers have for over two generations mastered the principles of construction operations with Olin.
Описание: This book provides vital descriptive information on how to design buildings, detail components, specify materials and product, and avoid common pitfalls - all in a single volume. Now contains more information on construction documents and administration, pre-stressed and post-tensioned structural concrete, heavy timber framing, wood siding, and green materials. Features more than 1,200 illustrations, including hundreds of new and updated images. Includes metric units and U.S. customary units throughout.
Описание: Building physics combines heat and mass transfer, building acoustics, lighting, indoor air quality and energy efficiency, and has a true impact on performance based building design. This volume focuses on heat, air, moisture transfer and its usage in engineering applications.

Описание: The first comprehensive guide to combining traditional natural materials and modern construction methods. From adobe to straw bales, traditional building materials are being adapted to meet code-required standards for health and safety in contemporary buildings around the world. Not only are they cost effective and environmentally friendly, but, when used correctly, these natural alternatives match the strength and durability of many mainstream construction materials. This book examines a broad range of traditional and modern natural construction methods, including straw-bale, light-clay, cob, adobe, rammed earth and pise, earthbag, earth-sheltered, bamboo, and hybrid systems. It also covers key ecologicaesign principles, as well as current engineering and building code requirements. Experts on each building system have contributed core chapters that explore the history, development, climatic appropriateness, environmental benefits, performance characteristics, construction techniques, and structural design principles for each method. More than 200 visuals depict both construction processes and completed structures. An extensive resource guide shows where to go for further information, training, and research. In an increasingly resource-conscious era, alternative construction is truly an idea whose time has come. Whether you're an architect, designer, student, or homeowner, this book will help you to combine indigenous building materials with modern construction systems and design standards to create low-impact, high-quality buildings that meet the highest levels of comfort, health, and safety.
Описание: Tensile surface structures are the visual expression of an intensive examination of the topic of building envelopes in architecture. Advances in design methods, materials, construction elements and assembly and erection planning within the field of lightweight building construction are enabling ever more exacting applications of tensile structures with spatial and structural functions, especially in roofing large column-free areas. However, the particular mechanical characteristics of the materials used raise the question of "buildability". This book provides answers by discussing the fundamental influence of manufacture and assembly when deciding on the most suitable type of structure and its detailing in the design process. The fundamentals of material composition, manufacturing process, patterning and the behaviour of flexible structural systems are explained here, as well as their use as structural and connection elements, while special attention is given to the erection of wide-span lightweight structures. The erection equipment is described, as well as the lifting and tensioning process and the construction methods used to erect the characteristic types of tensile structures, illustrated with a selection of example projects.
