Future of Building Systems --Appendix --Back matterFor a number of years, modular construction - the use of prefabricated elements in architecture - has once again become a subject of lively discussion and debate. Long written off as monotonous, today's building components are actually highly differentiated and capable of supporting and enhancing the architect's creativity. Numerous structures work with prefabricated components; for single-family homes the figure is ninety-eight percent, and modular systems are available that meet high aesthetic standards. This book provides an overview of the various different systems and their possible uses, particularly in the areas of housing, office, and industrial buildings. It explains the processes and components of modular construction and the behavior of the various materials when this construction approach is used. The authors offer strategies for planning and designing with prefabricated systems so that the architect can use them productively. Numerous drawings explain the principles of modular construction, while built examples forge a link between those principles and the practical activity of building.Seit einigen Jahren wird der Systembau, die Verwendung von vorgefertigten Elementen in der Architektur wieder engagiert diskutiert. Lange als monoton abgestempelt, weisen heutige Bauelemente in Wirklichkeit einen hohen Differenzierungsgrad auf, der die Kreativität der Architekten nachhaltig stützen und verstärken kann. Zahlreiche Bauten arbeiten mit solchen vorgefertigten Elementen - im Bereich Einfamilienhäuser trifft dies heute auf 98 Prozent zu und es sind ästhetisch anspruchsvolle Modulsysteme erhältlich. Dieses Buch stellt übersichtlich die verschiedenen Systeme und ihre Einsatzmöglichkeiten insbesondere im Wohnungs-, Büro- und Industriebau vor. Die Prozesse und Komponenten im Systembau werden erklärt, und das Verhalten der unterschiedlichen Materialien bei dieser Bauweise erläutert. Die Autoren stellen Strategien für Planung und Entwurf mit präfabrizierten Systemen vor, damit diese vom Architekten nutzbringend eingesetzt werden können. Zahlreiche Zeichnungen erklären die Prinzipien im Systembau, gebaute Beispiele sorgen für den Brückenschlag zur Baupraxis.Buildings, PrefabricatedDesign and constructionBuildings, PrefabricatedDesign and construction.721.04497Knaack Ulrich740630Chung-Klatte Sharon740631Hasselbach Reinhard740632MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787336103321Prefabricated systems1468759UNINA03796nam 2200577 450 991079657380332120200923020339.03-11-045159-X3-11-045387-810.1515/9783110453874(CKB)3850000000000851(DE-B1597)459707(OCoLC)979602256(DE-B1597)9783110453874(Au-PeEL)EBL4812836(CaPaEBR)ebr11352357(CaONFJC)MIL995438(OCoLC)974589677(CaSebORM)9783110451597(MiAaPQ)EBC4812836(EXLCZ)99385000000000085120170309h20172017 uy 0engurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierMedia architecture using information and media as construction material /edited by Alexander Wiethoff and Heinrich HussmannBerlin, [Germany] ;Boston, [Massachusetts] :De Gruyter Saur,2017.©20171 online resource (218 pages)Age of Access?

At the same time architects began to use digital media as a new material apart from concrete, glass or wood to create buildings and urban structures. Simultaneously, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) researchers began to exploit the interaction opportunities between users and buildings and to bridge the gaps between interface, information medium and architecture. As an example, they extended architectural structures with interactive, light-emitting elements on their outer shell, thereby transforming the surfaces of these structures into giant public screens. At the same time the wide distribution of mobile devices and the coverage of mobile internet allow manifold interaction opportunities between open data and citizens, thereby enabling the internet of things in the public domain. However, the appropriate distribution of information to all citizens is still cumbersome and a mutual dialogue not always successful (i.e. who gets what data and when?). In this book we therefore provide a deeper investigation of Using Information and Media as Construction Material with media architecture as an input and output medium.Age of Access?

Data Sources and Collection Methods -- Notes -- References -- IndexThere's a scene in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass in which the Red Queen, having just led a chase with Alice in which neither seems to have moved from the spot where they began, explains to the perplexed girl: "It takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place." Evolutionary biologists have used this scene to illustrate the evolutionary arms race among competing species. William Barnett argues that a similar dynamic is at work when organizations compete, shaping how firms and industries evolve over time. Barnett examines the effects--and unforeseen perils--of competing and winning. He takes a fascinating, in-depth look at two of the most competitive industries--computer manufacturing and commercial banking--and derives some startling conclusions. Organizations that survive competition become stronger competitors--but only in the market contexts in which they succeed. Barnett shows how managers may think their experience will help them thrive in new markets and conditions, when in fact the opposite is likely to be the case. He finds that an organization's competitiveness at any given moment hinges on the organization's historical experience. Through Red Queen competition, weaker competitors fail, or they learn and adapt. This in turn heightens the intensity of competition and further strengthens survivors in an ever-evolving dynamic. Written by a leading organizational theorist, The Red Queen among Organizations challenges the prevailing wisdom about competition, revealing it to be a force that can make--and break--even the most successful organization.CompetitionCompetition.338.6/04801Barnett William P1567728MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778221003321The red queen among organizations3839333UNINA
