This is the first in a series of books exploring the close relationship between architecture and engineering, and produced in association with Arup, the largest firm of consulting engineers in the world. This title addresses the ways in which architects and engineers collaborate in the design of ever more sophisticated systems of internal environmental control in buildings (lighting, heating, ventilation, acoustics etc), while keeping in mind considerations of energy efficiency, climate and local culture. The historical introduction reviews the environmental strand of architectural theory and practice, establishing the background for 20 critical studies of international contemporary buildings by major architects. Each of these is built in association with Arup and they cover a wide range of different functional types: offices, houses, universities, museums and sports facilities. The growing debate over the vulnerability of the global environment has given a new significance to the complex issues raised in this book.
Wayne Forster and Dean Hawkes both teach at the Welsh School of Architecture at Cardiff University, the former as Lecturer in Architecture and the latter as Professor of Architectural Design.

Zustand: Wie neu. Neuwertig. - This book is the first in a series exploring the close relationship between architecture and engineering and is produced in association with Arup, the largest firm of consulting engineers in the world. Architecture, Engineering and Environment addresses the ways in which architects and engineers collaborate in the process of environmental control in buildings. From the beginning of the industrial revolution in the 18th century, they began to work together to achieve new standards of comfort within buildings and, as a consequence, to bring about a fundamental transformation in the nature of architecture. At the beginning of the 21st century, the debate on the vulnerability of the global environment has given a new significance to the environmental agenda in architecture. The authors' introduction traces the historical development of the environmental strand of architectural theory and practice, establishing the background for f twenty critical studies of international contemporary buildings, each built in association with Arup. Connecting the environmental function of architecture to the wider historical and theoretical discourse, Architecture, Engineering and Environment will appeal to practitioners within the fields of architecture, environmental design and engineering, as well as to those with an interest in these areas.
