La 4ème édition française du Manuel
Nouvelle édition, enrichie du chapitre « Considérations autour du climat » consacré aux principes de base de la construction adaptée au climat.
De quel savoir technique et constructif a-t-on besoin pour réaliser des projets architecturaux variés ? Construire l’architecture propose dans cette quatrième édition française une vue d’ensemble des principes fondamentaux de la conception architecturale. Couronné par plusieurs prix internationaux et traduit en sept langues, cet ouvrage s’est imposé comme manuel de cours dans de nombreuses grandes écoles depuis sa parution en 2005. Il constitue par ailleurs un instrument de référence indispensable pour tous les architectes qui conçoivent le processus de construction comme un rapport dialectique complexe entre conception et mise en œuvre des matériaux.
Optant pour une approche globale de la construction, cet ouvrage combine connaissances techniques et questions esthétiques et les envisage conjointement dans la perspective de l’histoire des civilisations. La construction n’y est pas conçue comme une simple question de technique ou de technologie, mais aussi comme le résultat d’une intention artistique qui se concrétisera avec d’autant plus de cohérence et de force que l’architecte maîtrisera les principes techniques et constructifs de base.
Le livre se subdivise en quatre chapitres – Matériaux – Modules, Éléments, Structures, Édifices – et contient en annexe un catalogue présentant les éléments de construction. Tous les immeubles cités satisfont à de hautes exigences esthétiques ou jouent un rôle de premier plan dans l’histoire de l’architecture. D’une grande richesse iconographique, cet ouvrage contient plus de 1500 illustrations, plans et dessins de détails légendés. Le catalogue permet de comparer les détails de construction à l’échelle 1:20. Un index détaillé et des titres courants à toutes les pages facilitent l’orientation et la recherche ciblée d’informations.
