The EAAE/ARCC International Conference, held under the aegis of the EAAE (European Association for Architectural Education) and of the ARCC (Architectural Research Centers Consortium), is a conference organized every other year, in collaboration with one of the member schools / universities of those associations, alternatively in North America or in Europe. The EAAE/ARCC Conferences began at the North Carolina State University College of Design, Raleigh with a conference on Research in Design Education (1998); followed by conferences in Paris (2000), Montreal (2002), Dublin (2004), Philadelphia (2006), Copenhagen (2008), Washington (2010), Milan (2012) and Honolulu (2014). The conference discussions focus on research experiences in the field of architecture and architectural education, providing a critical forum for the dissemination and engagement of current ideas from around the world.
The escalating interdependecy of nations drives global geopolitics to shift ever more quickly. Societies seem unable to control any change that affects their cities, whether positively or negatively. Challenges are global, but solutions need to be implemented locally. How can architectural research contribute to the future of our changing society? How has it contributed in the past? The theme of the 10th EAAE/ARCC International Conference, “Architectural Research Addressing Societal Challenges”, was set to address these questions. This book, Architectural Research Addressing Societal Challenges, includes reviewed papers presented in June 2016, at the 10th EAAE/ARCC International Conferen...

Los textos de Análisis Estructural existentes en el mercado se centran en la fase de cálculo, y pocas veces abordan el problema de sistematizar el proceso del diseño estructural. Por otro lado, los textos clásicos de Resistencia de Materiales, estudian los estados tensionales y de deformación de los sólidos elásticos, aisladamente de las acciones que los produjeron y de la geometría y materiales de la propia estructura. El estudiante de arquitectura necesita conocer los aspectos fundamentales del cálculo estructural, desde su diseño y modelización inicial hasta el cálculo de solicitaciones y posterior dimensionamiento y comprobación. Este texto, que se adapta al programa de la asignatura de Introducción a las Estructuras de Edificación de la E.T.S.A.V., cumple estos objetivos y pretende cubrir este vacío existente en la bibliografía específica del cálculo de estructuras arquitectónicas.
This book explores how lessons from past urban planning experiences can inform current debates on urban agriculture. Productive landscapes today have been posited as instruments for the positive transformation related to territorial fragility and abandonment, promoting social cohesion, food security and wider environmental and economic benefits. The book will re-map the way in which seeming landscape limitations and challenges can be turned into potential, innovation and a new lease of urban-rural life. It does so by drawing on significant past urban agricultural experiences in planning as vectors for new critical reflections relevant to re-igniting ideas for future envisioning of urban scenarios in which productive landscapes play fundamental transformative roles. The focus is on planning ideas and the roles of key individual planners, all of which have designed agricultural strategies for the city at some point in their careers. It intends to help us today reimagine urban-rural relationships, and the transformation of under or mis-used urban open spaces, peri-urban areas, fringe conditions and in-between spaces.
En los cerca de quince años de trabajo de Rafael Leoz (1921-1976) desde su notable aparición pública con la recepción del premio de arquitectura de la Bienal de Sao Paulo en 1961 por su incipiente Módulo HELE, hasta su prematuro fallecimiento en 1976, se visibilizan las radicales transformaciones de la profesión de arquitecto y su nueva forma de trabajo. Esto sucede en una década, los sesenta, que en su contexto social, político, económico y cultural favoreció un concepto de ruptura posiblemente latente desde principios de siglo hasta las puertas de lo que se definirá como posmodernidad. Tras la experiencia de la construcción del Poblado Dirigido de Orcasitas, Rafael Leoz decidi...
