Description
Approximately half of the new buildings today are made from concrete - it can be shaped, it is long-lasting and it is economical. Yet to work successfully with the material concrete the architect requires great technical expertise, experience and a knowledge of highly developed techniques.
In this book 12 European projects are presented, illustrating the wide spectrum of applications for concrete in construction. Amongst the buildings documented are the Art Museum Liechtenstein by Meinrad Morger + Heisi Degelo, the Museum PasquArt by Diener & Diener, the Museo de la Illustracion by Vasquez Consuegra, a residential area in Regensburg by Fink + Jocher.
Full details, plans and colour illustrations are provided. The final part of the book includes detailed practical information on using and manufacturing concrete, new applications and the composition of the material.This is intended as a concise introduction to the subject, providing a low-price overview which will be of interest to a wider market including students.
