Download or read book Seven bridges by Jürg Conzett, anglais written by Wilfried Dechau and published by Scheidegger and Spiess. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rising dramatically above the spectacular Swiss landscape surrounding the well-known resort Flims - Laax - Falera, Jürg Conzett's unique mountain trail contains seven bridges crossing a wild stream. An internationally renowned civil engineer, Conzett has brought his considerable talent and experience to this project and the results are groundbreaking and visually appealing. Each bridge uses a different type of construction and building method depending on the specific geographic features of its location. Wilfried Dechau has catalogued the project with over one-hundred previously unpublished images of the bridges and their surrounding landscape. His atmospheric photographs provide readers with a beautiful and up-close look at both the striking architecture amid the beautiful wilderness. Also included in this book are sketches and plans by Conzett and a series of essays by Dechau, Conzett, Ursula Baus, Christian Dettwiler, and Jürg Marquart.
Book Synopsis An Encyclopaedia of World Bridges by : David McFetrich
Download or read book An Encyclopaedia of World Bridges written by David McFetrich and published by Pen and Sword Transport. This book was released on 2022-06-02 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridges are one of the most important artefacts constructed by man, the structures having had an incalculable effect on the development of trade and civilisation throughout the world. Their construction has led to continuing advances in civil engineering technology, leading to bigger spans and the use of new materials. Their failures, too, whether from an inadequate understanding of engineering principles or as a result of natural catastrophes or warfare, have often caused immense hardship as a result of lost lives or broken communications. In this book, a sister publication to his earlier An Encyclopaedia of British Bridges (Pen & Sword 2019), David McFetrich gives brief descriptions of some 1200 bridges from more than 170 countries around the world. They represent a wide range of different types of structure (such as beam, cantilever, stayed and suspension bridges). Although some of the pictures are of extremely well-known structures, many are not so widely recognisable and a separate section of the book includes more than seventy lists of bridges with distinctly unusual characteristics in their design, usage and history.

Download or read book Landscape and Structures written by Jürg Conzett and published by Scheidegger and Spiess. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Landscapes and Structures is a striking visual tour of Switzerland's public structural landmarks through the personal view of the internationally renowned civil engineer Jürg Conzett. The book is published in conjunction with the Swiss pavilion at the Twelfth International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale, which Conzett curated. Civil engineering structures comprise bridges, tunnels, passageways, and other built transport routes; and Conzett and photographer Martin Linsi aimed to showcase examples that demonstrate architectural aspirations and a special relationship to the landscape. The book's twenty chapters highlight such works as the Sittertobelrailway bridge and the Susten mountain pass that contribute to pertinent discussions in design and engineering--including questions of design within the cultural heritage movement, the reciprocal relationship between a townscape and its structures, and the tradition of relying on local materials and craftsmanship. As a whole, the book serves as an insider's tour of how Switzerland's most notable public structures highlight and compliment the landscape.

Book Synopsis A.P.C. Transmission by : Jean Touitou

Book excerpt: The fascinating inside story behind the cult French fashion label A.P.C. A.P.C. (Atelier de Production et de Création) was created as a reaction to the excesses of the 1980s, and the minimalist designs of founder Jean Touitou now have a cult following. This compelling book, published on the occasion of A.P.C.'s 30th anniversary, carries the same minimal aesthetic - yet it's packed with never-before-seen illustrations and ephemera. Part retrospective of the brand and part personal scrapbook and visual diary, the book includes invitations, postcards, ad campaigns, images of their stores, and collaborations with other designers.
Download or read book Bridges written by Thorsten Helbig and published by Detail. This book was released on 2021-09 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridges shape landscapes and cities. They are structures of great value to society. Bridges almost always document what was technically feasible when they were built so they automatically testify to the mobility and materiality of that time. How have traffic and bridge construction developed since? Where is there further potential? »Engineers imagine« - this publication will qualify readers to make complex evaluations of bridges and inspire them to think about bridges and bridge construction in new ways. It features essays on their history, outlines special features of materials selection, describes design approaches, construction types and methods and possibilities for repair and restoration, and offers ideas for planning tomorrow's infrastructure. Examples of impressive projects demonstrate how they can successfully encompass a range of aspects, including technology and architecture, science, knowledge and innovative solutions.

Book Synopsis Information—Consciousness—Reality by : James B. Glattfelder
Download or read book Information—Consciousness—Reality written by James B. Glattfelder and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-10 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book chronicles the rise of a new scientific paradigm offering novel insights into the age-old enigmas of existence. Over 300 years ago, the human mind discovered the machine code of reality: mathematics. By utilizing abstract thought systems, humans began to decode the workings of the cosmos. From this understanding, the current scientific paradigm emerged, ultimately discovering the gift of technology. Today, however, our island of knowledge is surrounded by ever longer shores of ignorance. Science appears to have hit a dead end when confronted with the nature of reality and consciousness. In this fascinating and accessible volume, James Glattfelder explores a radical paradigm shift uncovering the ontology of reality. It is found to be information-theoretic and participatory, yielding a computational and programmable universe.
