Sommario/riassunto |

Glas ist eines der faszinierendsten und vielseitigsten Baumaterialien der Architekturgeschichte. Die hier versammelten neuen Forschungsergebnisse thematisieren Glas an den Schnittstellen von Produktion, Konstruktionstechnologie und Baukultur. Sie untersuchen die zentrale Rolle von Flachglas in der Architektur, insbesondere seit dem 18. Jahrhundert, und diskutieren die In-situ-Restaurierung historischer Fenster und Glasfassaden sowie die Herausforderungen, dieses fragile Erbe zu bewahren. Die Themen reichen von der Flachglasherstellung in vorindustrieller Zeit bis zu den Möglichkeiten der Reparatur und der Wiederverwendbarkeit von Isolierverglasungen. Die Beiträge aus unterschiedlichsten Disziplinen schlagen Brücken zwischen den Natur- und Geisteswissenschaften und der Konservierung und Restaurierung von Kulturgut. Mit Beiträgen in englischer, deutscher und französischer Sprache Multidisziplinärer Exkurs in die Geschichte der Herstellung und Verwendung von Flachglas Von der Römerzeit bis heute Neue Perspektiven auf Flachglas als Baumaterial und Kulturerbe |
Glass is one of the most fascinating and versatile building materials in architectural history. The new insights into glass in architecture are the result of research at the intersection of glass production, construction technology and building culture. Coming from a variety of disciplines, the contributions bridge the divide between natural sciences, humanities and the preservation and restoration of cultural heritage. They explore the crucial role of flat glass in shaping architecture, particularly since the 18th century, and discuss the in-situ restoration of historic windows and glass façades and the importance of preserving this fragile heritage. The topics range from the manufacture of sheet |
