Integrative Approach to Comprehensive Building Renovations
This book presents a new approach to building renovation, combining aspects of various professional disciplines, integrating green building design, structural stability, and energy efficiency. It draws attention to several often-overlooked qualities of buildings that should be comprehensively integrated into the context of building renovation. The book presents an overview of the most important renovation approaches according to their scope, intensity, and priorities. Combining basic theoretical knowledge and the authors’ scientific research it emphasizes the importance of simultaneous consideration of energy efficiency and structural stability in building renovation processes. It simultan...
Energy-Efficient Timber-Glass Houses
The book discusses combining timber and glass, two eco materials, with a view to developing an optimal contemporary energy-efficient house with an attractive design. Furthermore, the book connects an architectural design approach with structural research to show the possibilities of stabilizing the building with an increased size of the glazing. Research results where the glazing is considered as a load-bearing structural element are therefore presented in a manner leading to the development of an optimal model of the timber-glass house, considering both the structural and energy related aspects. The presented research work can be useful to designers and future experts in their planning of o...
Critical Thinking in the Sustainable Rehabilitation and Risk Management of the Built Environment
This proceedings book presents contributions to the International Conference on Critical Thinking in the Sustainable Rehabilitation and Risk Management of the Built Environment – CRIT-RE-BUILT – held in Iași, Romania, November 7–9, 2019. It mirrors outcomes in fundamental and applied research covering a broad palette of competences like observations, analysis, interpretation, evaluation, problem-solving and decision making. The book sets up eight chapters related to rehabilitation and risk in the built environment. Each chapter starts with a broad state-of-the-art presentation comprising the latest ideas and methods in the field assessing and asserting synthesized levels of research, development and novelty through a critical thinking process. The authors of the eight presentations are partners in the E+ Programme for Strategic Partnerships Rehabilitation of the Built Environment in the Context of Smart City and Sustainable Development Concepts for Knowledge Transfer and Lifelong Learning (RE-BUILT).

Challenging Glass 4 & COST Action TU0905 Final Conference
This proceedings volume of the Challenging Glass 4 & COST Action TU0905 Final Conference, held 6-7 February 2014 at the EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland, represents the Final Action Publication of the European research network COST Action TU0905 “Structural Glass – Novel design methods and next generation products”. It contains nearly 100 peer-reviewed papers – published by more than 180 authors from 22 different countries – that focus on the architectural and structural applications of glass in structures and facades. As such, it provides a profound state-of-the-art of structural glass design and engineering. A must-read for all architects, engineers, scientists, industry partners and other enthusiasts interested in this rapidly evolving and challenging domain.
Tonovcov grad near Kobarid
V vodniku je predstavljeno najdišče Tonovcov grad pri Kobaridu. Na strmem skalnem hribu nad Sočo so bili odkriti sledovi več prazgodovinskih dob, rimskega, poznoantičnega in zgodnjesrednjeveškega obdobja. Izstopajo ostaline iz 5. in 6. stoletja n. š., ko je bila na hribu zgrajena velika naselbina z več kot dvajsetimi stanovanjskimi zgradbami in obrambnimi stolpi ob obzidju. Na vzvišenem osrednjem delu so bile raziskane tri odlično ohranjene zgodnjekrščanske cerkve z baptisterijem in dva zbiralnika za vodo. Podrobneje je predstavljena tudi velika stanovanjska zgradba s prizidkom, vetrolovom in ognjišči. Poznoantična naselbina je bila opuščena ob koncu 6. ali celo v prvi polovici 7. stoletja. Kasneje, okoli leta 800, je bila utrdba ponovno kratkotrajno poseljena. V vodniku opisane ostaline pomembno dopolnjujejo vedenje o skrivnostnem času odmiranja antike in preseljevanja ljudstev, ki je ključnega pomena za razumevanje nastanka slovenskega kot tudi mnogih drugih narodov sedanje Evrope. Vodnik je izšel še v angleški, nemški in italijanski različici.
Timber Structures and Engineering
This book contains papers presented at the 1st International Conference on Timber Structures, which was held in collaboration with the Technical Centre of Wood Industry in Belgium. It explores the latest developments in wood products and their application as structural components. The focus of the included works is to draw attention to new research and real applications from both researchers and practitioners, and to present new and innovative ideas in this significant field. Rapid advances have recently been made in the development and processing of innovative ecologically friendly wood products. A variation of new structural shapes can now be fabricated and used to construct buildings and ...
