Insulating Materials
Die Bedeutung von Dämmstoffen ist ungebrochen hoch. Das Angebot steigt kontinuierlich. Durch ihre wärmedämmende Wirkung tragen sie zur Einsparung von Heiz- und Kühlenergie sowie zur Reduktion des CO2-Austoßes bei. Detail Practice Insulating Materials bietet einen umfassenden Katalog von Dämmstoffen für den Hochbau. Erläuterungen zu den einzelnen Dämmstoffarten geben Aufschluss über enthaltene Rohstoffe, typische Eigenschaften, Anwendungsbereiche und Lieferformen. Tabellen mit physikalischen Kennwerten und Angaben zum Brandverhalten sowie Hinweise zur Gesundheits- und Umweltverträglichkeit machen die Dämmstoffe vergleichbar. Ein Überblick über die europäischen Rechtsvorschriften sowie Dämmstoffnormen mit Erläuterungen zur Produktkennzeichnung und -zertifizierung hilft bei der Planung und Ausschreibung. Für die Auswahl des passenden Dämmstoffes werden Kriterien für Konstruktion und Anwendung vorgestellt. Ergänzend hierzu eröffnet die differenzierte Betrachtung der ökologischen Wirkungen von Dämmstoffen ein großes Optimierungspotenzial für ihren nachhaltigen Einsatz.

Refurbishment Manual
Planning tasks involving existing structures are currently among the most common types of contract, and almost every structure makes different demands and raises individual problems. Reflecting this state of affairs, there are a dizzying number of publications on the market, most of which are quite specialized. The Refurbishment Manual cuts through this jungle of publications. It defines terms and concepts, combines the narrowly focused perspectives of the specialists, and offers concrete approaches to this wide-ranging topic. The Refurbishment Manual closes the gap between basic constructional literature and one-sided, highly specialized technical literature. It constitutes a practical plan...
Adaptive Reuse
Building in existing fabric requires more than practical solutions and stylistic skills. The adaptive reuse of buildings, where changes in the structure go along with new programs and functions, poses the fundamental question of how the past should be included in the design for the future. On the background of long years of teaching and publishing, and using vivid imagery from Frankenstein to Rem Koolhaas and beyond, the author provides a comprehensive introduction to architectural design for adaptive reuse projects. History and theory, building typology, questions of materials and construction, aspects of preservation, urban as well as interior design are dealt with in ways that allow to approach adaptive reuse as a design practice field of its own right.

Index of Plant Diseases in the United States
This Handbook supersedes Department bulletin 1366, "A check list of diseases of economic plants in the United States," issued in 1926. It replaces the processed report, "Index of Plant Diseases in the United States," issued in six parts, from 1950 to 1953. The Handbook does not constitute a revision of the "Index," issued from 1950 to 1953. There are no real changes in content. Condensation of the introductory explanation, and some minor changes, mainly in the host descriptions, to permit better arrangement of the printed page, are the most conspicuous differences from the original "Index."
