This book was released on 1991-02-28 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On October 14-19, 1990, the 6th International Conference on the Conservation of Earthen Architecture was held in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Sponsored by the GCI, the Museum of New Mexico State Monuments, ICCROM, CRATerre-EAG, and the National Park Service, under the aegis of US/ICOMOS, the event was organized to promote the exchange of ideas, techniques, and research findings on the conservation of earthen architecture. Presentations at the conference covered a diversity of subjects, including the historic traditions of earthen architecture, conservation and restoration, site preservation, studies in consolidation and seismic mitigation, and examinations of moisture problems, clay chemistry, and microstructures. In discussions that focused on the future, the application of modern technologies and materials to site conservation was urged, as was using scientific knowledge of existing structures in the creation of new, low-cost, earthen architecture housing.

Download or read book Structural Characterization and Seismic Retrofitting of Adobe Constructions written by Humberto Varum and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-28 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the reader with a review of the most relevant research on the structural characterization and seismic retrofitting of adobe construction. It offers a complete review of the latest research developments, and hence the relevance of the field. The book starts with an introductory discussion on adobe construction and its use throughout the world over time, highlighting characteristics and performance of adobe masonry structures as well as different contributions for cultural heritage conservation (Chapter 1). Then, the seismic behaviour of adobe masonry buildings is addressed, including examples of real performance during recent earthquakes (Chapter 2). In the following chapters, key research investigations on seismic response assessment and retrofitting of adobe constructions are reviewed. The review deals with the following issues: mechanical characterization of adobe bricks and adobe masonry (Chapters 3 and 4); quasi-static and shaking table testing of adobe masonry walls and structures (Chapters 5 and 6); non-destructive and minor-destructive testing for characterization of adobe constructions (Chapter 7); seismic strengthening techniques for adobe constructions (Chapter 8); and numerical modelling of adobe structures (Chapter 9). The book ends with Chapter 10, where some general conclusions are drawn and research needs are identified. Each chapter is co-authored by a group of experts from different countries to comprehensively address all issues of adobe constructions from a worldwide perspective. The information covered in this book is fundamental to support civil engineers and architects in the rehabilitation and strengthening of existing adobe constructions and also in the design of new adobe buildings. This information is also of interest to researchers, by providing a summary of existing research and suggesting possible directions for future research efforts.

This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the late sixteenth century until their expulsion in 1767, the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) played a pivotal role in the life of Spanish America. They educated the urban population, tended to the spiritual needs of city folk, conducted “popular missions” to correct doctrinal issues with the urban and rural populations, and administered missions among the indigenous populations on the frontiers. Jesuit missions stretched from northern Mexico to Patagonia in South America, and left a considerable historical and architectural heritage and patrimony. This volume outlines the historical development of Jesuit missions located in northern Mexico and South America, and illustrates the architectural heritage they left behind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Casona de los Siete Balcones es un conjunto de narraciones de la vida de la clase media en la Ciudad de México de l910. A través de las conversaciones de Cristina Bejarano con su familia y amigos en situaciones cotidianas que se desenvuelven a lo largo de este año, conoceremos de las costumbres y cultura, asi como de la situación política y social durante este período fascinante en la historia de México. El 20 de noviembre de 1910 irrumpe la Revolución en México y trastorna al país entero. Sus habitantes pobres y de la clase media, o sea la mayoría del país, rasgan las redes de la opresión y la indiferencia y se deciden a ejercer su libertad, aletargada durante la dictadura de Porfirio Diaz. Sólo dos meses antes, en septiembre, la capital se vio engalanada con flores y luces por las impresionantes fiestas de celebración del Centenario de la Independencia. Pero, mientras se avecinaba la tormenta, la vida de Cristina y su familia transcurría apaciblemente. Acostumbrada a un sistema político y social que no podía cambiar, la clase media adopta una actitud cínica e irresponsable ante la vida y suple con fiestas y música la falta de oportunidades en el gobierno y la economía del pais. Atisbaremos por los balcones de la casona de Cristina y seremos invitados invisibles en sus tertulias y testigos mudos de los idilios e inquietudes que guarecen sus muros.

This book was released on 2023-05-03 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The promotion of sustainable urban development and livable cities in the past three decades has effectively merged the themes of urban health, urban sustainability, and urban livability into an integrated research field. As more people are predicted to live in a relatively confined space, the balance between the physical/built environment, social environment, and urban dwellers becomes more delicate. Urban systems have evolved to be more complex than ever during this process. While complex systems often offer relative stability, delicate balance requires carefully designed plans and management to avoid collapse. It is, hence, of great interest and importance to know what future sustainable and livable cities look like. Intersecting Health, Livability, and Human Behavior in Urban Environments considers how to improve the quality of the environment and healthy living in contemporary and future urban environments. Covering key topics such as environmental health, smart cities, and urban health, this premier reference source is ideal for policymakers, government officials, scholars, researchers, academicians, instructors, and students.

Book excerpt: Segunda edición, bilingüe (español – inglés) y con dibujos del autor, de esta esmerada obra fruto de una sostenida inquietud de Roque Manuel Gómez por el análisis y estudio de los Valles Calchaquíes y su arquitectura, dada su especial particularidad y su extraordinaria riqueza patrimonial. Permite comprender los patrones del "diseño" urbano-arquitectónico operado en el Valle, a la luz de los procesos históricos, y determinar el cambio, evolución o perduración de los rasgos que la caracterizan, considerando que existe una íntima relación entre la arquitectura, los hombres que la crean y los que hacen uso de ella. Asimismo proporciona conocimientos ordenados sobre los tipos fundamentales del diseño urbano-arquitectónico, analizando sus aspectos funcionales, técnicos y formales, y su relación cronológica. La obra rescata la memoria colectiva a fin de difundirla, lograr su revalorización y contribuir a su conocimiento y preservación. Se trata de documentos valiosos de la historia de estos pueblos, que se constituyen en verdaderas experiencias vivas, útiles para el proceso creativo para todos aquellos que estén en la búsqueda de profundas raíces con el objeto de producir obras de arquitectura con características auténticas.

Book excerpt: En esta novela, basada en algunos hechos históricos sucedidos en el Casco de la antigua Hacienda San Antonio el Puente, en el Estado de Morelos, el autor nos presenta un ameno relato, no exento de imaginación, de la vida de los Hacendados y de todas aquellas personas que vivían y trabajaban en esta Hermosa propiedad, que llego a tener mas de 5,000 hectáreas de cultivo de caña de azúcar siendo una de las grandes Haciendas Morelenses de los siglos XVIII y XIX. Durante los trabajos de restauración, el autor fue recogiendo testimonios transmitidos de generación en generación por los vecinos del lugar. Adicionalmente, se apoyó en algunas investigaciones de fuentes documentales serias, para presentarnos este interesante libro, que nos permite transportarnos a esos maravillosos años y ser testigos de sus vidas y sus costumbres, en ese México que ya no volverá.
