Synopsis:
Building with prefabricated systems
For 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.
- For advanced architecture students and practicing architects
- An authoritative survey
- With numerous drawings prepared especially for the book
