A city of ten million, Wuhan is the engineering center of China, a site of remarkable functional architecture on a breathtaking scale. This book features photographs, plans and accounts of major projects found in or originating in Wuhan, along with analyses of twenty-four the most impressive engineering works in China, including the Three Gorges Dam, power plants, tunnels, and bridges. In the process, the book reveals the unique culture of engineering in Wuhan, an approach that refuses to differentiate between the functional and the aesthetic—and that views engineering skill and knowledge as essential for pushing design forward.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Im Gegensatz zu Europa fand in Wuhan nie die Trennung in technische Zweckbauten und vermeintlich schöne Gebäude statt. Die Welt der Ingenieure im Bauwesen sah sich hier nicht in Konkurrenz zur Architektur, sondern interpretierte sie als Erweiterung um große Optionen. Eindrucksvoll zeigen dies die Pläne und Aufnahmen der Großprojekte aus Wuhan, die sich selbst als die Ingenieurstadt Chinas versteht. Die Etablierung einer Biennale für Engineering Design unterstreicht dabei nur die Ansicht, Bauen als anspruchsvolle gesamtheitliche Kultur zu sehen, die sich auch an den Zielen der Green Agenda orientieren muss. Die Publikation stellt 24 dieser herausragenden Ingenieurbauten der Superlative vor. 80 pp. Chinesisch, Deutsch, Englisch. Seller Inventory # 9783777420295
