在形式之外--试论数字化时代建筑内涵的变化

数字化时代为建筑与空间的形式创作带来了前所未有的新的技术手段，但在形式之外，更为重要的是建筑内涵的变化。从作为媒介的建筑、城市与建筑的结构性重组，以及建筑的审美与象征意义三个方面，阐释了建筑在社会生活和时代变迁的影响下所发生的实质性转变。     

从仓储库房火灾中获得的经验和教训

历史的经验表明,当灾害性火灾发生后,人们对火灾进行调查所获得的经验和教训推动了仓储库房防火的进步。下面讨论由这种方式得出的经验和教训。1自动喷水灭火系统的设计应和火灾危险相匹配该教训来源于含有可燃物质的气溶胶罐仓库的自动喷水灭火系统的防火评估。1978年在新泽西     

塑料管道行业洗牌在即

近年来,国家化学建材领导小组相继出台了“关于加强我国化学建材生产和推广应用的若干意见”、“国家化学建材产业十五计划和2010年发展规划纲要”和“关于加速化学建材推广应用和限制淘汰落后产品的规定”等政策,这些政策大大加强了塑料建材的推广应用力度。在塑料管道行业发展前景一片光明而欣喜的同时,我们也不得不注意到这样一个情况,无论从市场需求还是资金的市场运作来看,塑料管道企业区域化、集团化形式已凸显出来。由于现阶段我国塑料管道产业集中度偏低,导致很多企业工艺装备小型化、科技水平低,造成产品缺乏竞争力,产品结构不合理…

离子型火灾探测器的清洗工作值得关注

目前在我国使用的火灾自动报警系统中 ,各种探测器品种繁多 ,但应用最广的是离子型火灾探测器。离子型火灾探测器的工作原理是利用空气离化法 ,当α射线通过两个电极之间的空气时 ,由于α射线的作用 ,不导电的空气分子变成了导电的正、负离子。在电场的作用下 ,负离子向正极运动 ,正离子向负极运动 ,并产生感应电荷。然后将感应电荷所形成的电流或电压信号 ,经过电子电路的整形、放大、甄别等过程而被分析和记录。当烟雾粒子进入电离室后 ,使电离电流减少 ,这样 ,就将烟雾的物理量转变成电量 ,发出火灾报警信号 ,达到了火灾报警的目的。一、…     

What can be taught in architectural design? — <Emphasis Type="Italic">parti,poché</Emphasis>, and felt qualities

This essay begins with a reflection on what has been taught in architectural design since the turn of the twentieth century. I shall trace back to the two disciplinary foundations of the French École des Beaux-Arts — parti and poché — in the education of an architect in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. I shall then attempt to superimpose parti and poché on a modern disciplinary framework, say that of mathematics, which leads to musings on a series of architectural problems that include pattern versus type, stability versus mobility, orthogonal versus oblique, confinement versus transparency, and aging versus metallic sheen. These paradoxes, I suggest, demand the education of an architect to address both the instrumental pattern of a building configuration and the ambient felt qualities of a room, rather than vision alone.     

Spatial competition and regulatory change in the grain handling and transportation system in western Canada

The grain handling and transportation system (GHTS) has been a defining component of the western Canadian economy since the early part of the last century. Only two major railways serve the grain handling industry, so the potential for the exercise of market power in transportation appears to be significant. In fact, spatially oriented regulations applicable to railways exist in Canada to mitigate this, but to date they have not often been used by shippers. While the reasons for this are not completely clear, we suggest that the regulations are now inadequate for the current state of the GHTS. Using a unique data set from the year 2000, we assess the effect on the grain handling industry of modifications to these regulations, and find that significant gains for shippers from these modifications are possible. These gains are computed to be on the order of C$10–15 million per year for grain shippers alone. We would like to thank conference and presentation participants (Transportation Research Board, Canadian Agricultural Economics Society, University of British Columbia, University of Leeds and California State University, Long Beach) as well as the anonymous reviewers who commented on the earlier versions of this paper. We would also like to acknowledge support from the Saskatchewan Department of Highways.
