Because of the technological complexity of using it, however, no specific structural forms have been developed for glass supporting frameworks as they have been for wood, concrete, and steel. This book is thus the first to present a coherent guide to the planning and design of glass supporting frameworks. The focus is on the pressureNr.resistant, flat supporting element as a basic building block for broad supporting structures. The spatial and constructive forms of multifunctional, selfNr.supporting glass envelopes are vividly illustrated and systematically explained. The constructions presented exhibit new aesthetic qualities, based not on the dictum of dematerializationNr. but on the poetry of gleaming and transparent planes. They ring in a new chapter in the history of glass architecture.Perevod na russkij:Ploskoe steklo otkryvaet proektirovshchiku bolshe vozmozhnostej, chem prakticheski lyuboj drugoj material. Odnako izNr.za tekhnologicheskoj slozhnosti primeneniya ne byli razrabotany spetsificheskie strukturnye formy steklyannykh nesushchikh konstruktsij, kak eto sdelano dlya dereva, betona ili stali. Eta kniga Nr. pervaya, predstavlyayushchaya posledovatelnoe rukovodstvo po planirovaniyu i proektirovaniyu steklyannykh nesushchikh karkasov. V tsentre vnimaniya Nr. ploskij, ustojchivyj k davleniyu nesushchij element kak bazovyj stroitelnyj modul dlya shirokomasshtabnykh konstruktsij. ProstranstvennoNr.konstruktivnye formy mnogofunktsionalnykh, samonesushchikh steklyannykh obolochek yarko illyustrirovany i sistematicheski obyasneny. Predstavlennye konstruktsii predlagayut novye esteticheskie kachestva, osnovannye ne na 'dematerializatsii', a na poezii siyayushchikh i prozrachnykh ploskostej. Oni otkryvayut novuyu glavu v istorii steklyannoj arkhitektury.
