Transparent Shells: Form, Topology, Structure

Hans Schober
4.9/5 (23475 ratings)
Description:This book describes the design, detailing and structural engineering of filigree, double-curved and long-span glazed shells of minimal weights and ingenious details. Innovative, clear and understandable geometric principles for the design of double-curved shell structures are explained in a practical manner. The principles are simple to apply with the use of functions now available in most CAD programs. The author demonstrates how floating and homogeneous structures can be created on these "free" forms, particularly framed structures of planar rectangles. These are especially suitable for glazing with flat panes and offer constructional, economical and architectural advantages. Examples are provided to illustrate in simple ways the latest methods of form finding calculation and holistic optimisation through the complex interaction of structure, form and topology. Numerous examples built all over the world from 1989 to 2014 offer orientation and assistance in the design of such double-curved shells. Essential design parameters, constructed net structures and their node connections are presented and evaluated. These structures have been built all over the world in close partnership with renowned architects.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
