Construire en verre / Building in Glass (Book) by Werner Sobek, Gerald Staib, Dieter Balkow, Matthias Schuler, Christian Schittich. Like new, Polytechnic and university presses romanes. In French.
Build with glass. Glass has always held a special place in architecture thanks to the unique possibilities it offers for the construction of clear, open and bright buildings. But the tremendous developments it has undergone recently have aroused such enthusiasm among engineers and architects that it has become the material of choice for today’s builders. The new range of possibilities offered by this material has generated a very strong demand for information from architects and it is to meet their needs that this work was designed.
Its 330 pages deal exhaustively with the different creative and constructive possibilities offered by glass, the properties and physical aspects of this material as well as its behavior under different constraints. It also devotes a large part to the energy saving possibilities achievable through appropriate use of glass as well as a wide range of details on fixing and construction techniques.
