Overview

Complexity in architecture, construction and material manipulation is constantly increasing due to our present ability to design, calculate and fabricate an extending range of geometric shapes and systems. This volume addresses the design of complexity in the planning, fabrication and construction of steel structures based on non-orthogonal geometries: curved and chaotic geometries, poly-diagrid systems, lattice-grid structures and others. Topical photographs by the author on a wide range of international projects present innovative methods and techniques, providing an excellent understanding of the possibilities and requirements of complex steel structures.

Dieses Buch widmet sich der Planung, Herstellung und Konstruktion von komplexen Stahltragwerken, die auf nicht-orthogonalen Geometrien beruhen: auf gebogenen und chaotischen Geometrien, zusammengesetzten Diagridtragwerken und Gittertragwerken. Die aussagekraftigen Fotos der Autorin machen die innovativen Methoden und Techniken anhand von internationalen Projekten anschaulich und fuhren die Potenziale und Anforderungen komplexer Stahlkonstruktionen vor Augen.
