La actual realidad socioeconmica, marcada por la (r)evolucin tecnolgica de los ltimo aos y la explosin demogrfica y urbana, conlleva dos grandes problemas. Por un lado el cambio climtico derivado de la sobreexplotacin de los recursos y energas no-renovables, y por otro, la prdida de las identidades y procesos culturales especficos provocada por la globalizacin. Ante ellos, diversos autores plantean sacar partido de las propias tecnologas y la nueva sociedad en red para dar una respuesta acorde al momento actual. Las herramientas computacionales permiten una mayor complejidad de los diseos alcanzando una optimizacin de recursos y procesos, minimizando su impacto ambiental. Frente a la produccin en masa y la prdida de identidad, el planteamiento informtico de problemas globales permite pasar de la produccin en masa del siglo pasado a la customizacin en masa al dar respuestas especficas para cada contexto. Por otro lado es necesario que esos procesos computacionales conecten y hagan partcipes del diseo a los diferentes actores sociales implicados. Es por ello que esta investigacin se basar en los patrones espaciales de Christopher Alexander y otros modelos algortmicos de diseo por ordenador puesto que estos describen soluciones paramtricas a conflictos recurrentes de diseo de arquitectura. Su planteamiento permite que cada solucin base genere respuestas especficas, a la vez que esta es corregida y optimizada por todos sus utilizadores al poder ser compartida digitalmente. Con ello se busca que el diseo de arquitectura responda a criterios objetivos basados en la experiencia y la crtica participativa y democrtica basada en los patrones, de tal modo que los diseos no surjan de un planteamiento top-down impuesto y cerrado, sino que en ellos gane importancia la participacin activa de los actores sociales implicados en la definicin y uso de los mismos. Por ltimo, esta investigacin procura mostrar cmo los patrones pueden jugar un papel determinante en la conceptualizacin abstracta del diseo, mientras que otros mtodos algortmicos alcanzarn fases del proyecto ms concretas. De este modo, los patrones digitales que se pretenden se centran en la customizacin del diseo, mientras que el uso que le dan otros autores persigue la optimizacin del mismo. Para ello la investigacin recurrir al anlisis de los pabellones de verano de la Serpentine Gallery como casos de estudio en los que comprobar la repercusin de los patrones en el diseo de arquitectura actual y su posible adaptacin al diseo paramtrico.

Natural air ventilation is the most import passive strategy to provide thermal comfort in hot and humid climates and a significant low energy strategy. However, the natural ventilated building requires more attention with the architectural design than a conventional building with air conditioning systems, and the results are less reliable. Therefore, this thesis focuses on softwares and methods to predict the natural ventilation performance from the point of view of the architect, with limited resource and knowledge of fluid mechanics. A typical prefabricated building was modelled due to its simplified geometry, low cost and occurrence at the local campus. Firstly, the study emphasized the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, to simulate the air flow outside and inside the building. A series of approaches were developed to make the simulations possible, compromising the results fidelity. Secondly, the results of CFD simulations were used as the input of an energy tool, to simulate the thermal performance under different rates of air renew. Thirdly, the results of temperature were assessed in terms of thermal comfort. Complementary simulations were carried out to detail the analyses. The results show the potentialities of these tools. However the discussions concerning the simplifications of the approaches, the limitations of the tools and the level of knowledge of the average architect are the major contribution of this study

Desde o decorrer dos sculos que a arquitetura se tem apresentado de diferentes formas perante o seu pblico. As sucessivas mudanas na mentalidade social foram em consequncia provocando alteraes no posicionamento do arquiteto na relao com o utilizador, resultando no distanciamento entre ambos. O processo social da arquitetura acabou por sofrer continuas alteraes na sua forma de atuar, perdendo o seu carter de servio prestado sociedade, e funcionando como um instrumento de afirmao e demonstrao de poder. Atravs de uma anlise da complexidade nas componentes da sociologia e da espacialidade, pretende-se chegar essncia da conceo do espao e da forma como este organiza e estrutura a sociedade. A questo primordial encontra-se no assumir do utilizador como um elemento primordial para a modelao do espao, expondo os efeitos da componente participativa na conceo do programa e do projeto. Na presente dissertao tenta-se perceber de que forma a participao na conceo do projeto arquitetnico, pode exponenciar o processo social da arquitetura. Atravs da anlise de trs obras internacionais, procura-se compreender de que forma o pensamento arquitetnico e a metodologia de trabalho dos seus autores representam instrumentos importantes para restabelecer a conexo perdida entre o arquiteto e o utilizador. O que se pretende no obteno de uma resposta Universal, mas a exposio de um caminho, e dos instrumentos que podem constituir uma importante ferramenta para a afirmao do processo social da arquitetura, dando a origem a um projeto arquitetnico que represente a viso da sua sociedade e responda s suas necessidades. Uma arquitetura estruturada pela sociedade, onde o arquiteto assume no como um criador, mas como um gestor de recursos.

Esta investigao procura mostrar/problematizar programas que questionem a reutilizao de lugares, atravs de uma proposta de projeto provisrio de arquitetura, no panorama do Patrimnio Industrial, num processo de revitalizao. O intuito procurar modelos/aes que possam responder s transformaes, partindo do problema do abandono, dos espaos ps-industriais. O objetivo principal consiste em criar um processo de aproximao problemtica da reutilizao cujo processo de elaborao de projeto encontra nas suas formas de produo e operao um discurso que faz a sntese entre prtica artstica, posio curatorial e arquitetura, na elaborao de um programa para um lugar revitalizando-o. O objeto deste estudo faz parte de uma investigao de pesquisa por projeto e encontra lugar no conjunto arquitetnico da Fbrica Robinson, em Portalegre, cuja apropriao inicial de parte do Convento de S. Francisco d hoje lugar ao Espao Robinson. O reconhecimento deste conjunto, como lugar de encontro entre um passado recente e um futuro pendente, marcou a proposta projetual. Proposta de projeto temporrio cujo conceito estabelece a viabilidade de apropriao como forma de atuao provisria, subjacente ao ato de reutilizar, criando novos programas de ocupao, promovendo novas ideias e definies de patrimnio e assim devolvendo o significado s estruturas industriais vazias. O que preservar e como conservar pode demarcar a importncia de salvaguarda deste patrimnio e a previso da sua transmisso para o futuro, fixada pela ideia de preservao. A Fbrica Robinson e a revitalizao urbana deste espao configura, hoje, uma nova oportunidade para estes conjuntos arquitetnicos, e a importncia da sua salvaguarda, na valorizao do Patrimnio Industrial. O trabalho pretende demonstrar a ordem de relao entre programa e lugar no debate interdisciplinar e a hiptese de concretizao projetual que preencha um vazio temporalmente suspenso; ABSTRACT: Rethinking = Reuse: The abandonment as opportunity Robinson Factory: The instant in the construction of a provisory time This research aims to show architectural programs that question the reuse of places in the context of industrial heritage, through an architectural design, in a revitalization process. The aim is to look to models / actions that, starting with the abandonment problem, may answer to the post-industrial spaces transformations. The main goal is to create an approximation process to the problem of reuse, whose project design process finds in its production and operations forms a symbiosis between artistic practice, curatioral approach and architecture, in the development of a program to revitalize a place. The object of this study is part of a research project / research by design concerning the architectural complex Fbrica Robinson located in Portalegre, whose original appropriation of part of Convento de S. Francisco is today occupied by Espao Robinson. The acknowledgment of this complex as a space placed in-between a recent past and a pending future marked the design proposed. A temporary design proposal whose concept establishes the validity of the temporary action, underlying to the act of reuse, creating new occupation programs, promoting new ideas and heritage definitions and thus given back meaning to the empry industrial structures. What to preserve and how to save may mark the importance of safeguarding this heritage and the prediction of its transmission to the future, set by the idea of preservation. The Fbrica Robinson and the urban regeneration of this area sets itself as a new opportunity to safeguard these architectural ensembles and enhance the value of the industrial heritage. This study intend to show the relationship between the program and a vacant place, through a temporary proposal, supported by the interdisciplinary debate and the hypothesis of design implementation that completes a void temporarily suspended.

A study of historic examples of buildings that were designed for disassembly reveals a number of important lessons in the technology employed. These lessons can inform designers such that they may better design for disassembly to attempt to increase the rates of reuse and recycling in the building industry.

So what do you want to know? I was in Paris between 75 and 78. But about half way through, Sylvre published the Anti-Oedipus issue of Semiotext(e) and, actually, that was for me one of the deciding events that made me decide to come to the United States, to come study at Columbia University. There appeared to be this little group working at Columbia working around these issues. In 1970, in Paris even, Deleuze was a cult there was an incredibly small number of people following Deleuze... A transcript of my Interview with Kwinter about the Architectural Reception of Deleuze in America, which took place at Jerrys,' Soho, New York, 15 January 2003. The transcript appeared as an Appendix at the back of my Masters Thesis undertaken at Yale School of Architecture, printed May 2003.

Benefiting from design in theory learning is not common in architecture schools. The general practice is to design in studio and to theorise in lectures. In the undergraduate module History and Theory in Architecture II at Queens University Belfast, students attend interactive lectures, participate in reading group discussions, design TextObjects, and write essays. TextObjects contain textual, audio and/or graphic representations that highlight a single concept or a complex set of issues derived from readings. Students experiment with diverse media, such as filmmaking, photography, and graphic design, some of which they experience for the first time. Lectures and readings revolve around theories of architectural representation, media and communication, which are practiced through TextObjects. This is a new way to link theory and practice in architectural education. Through action research, this study analyses this innovative teaching method called TextObject, which brings design and practice into architectural theory education to stimulate students towards critical thinking. The pedagogical research of architectural theoretician Necdet Teymur (1992, 1996, 2002) underlies the study.

There is a broad consensus surrounding the ability of building information modelling (BIM) to positively impact a project by enabling greater collaboration. This paper aims to examine the development of BIM and how it can contribute to the evermore present and growing cold-formed steel (CFS) industry. This is achieved thorough a comprehensive literature review and four exploratory interviews with industry experts. Work has been carried out, for the first time, alongside one of the UKs largest CFS Designer/Fabricators in conjunction with Northern Irelands leading Architectural and Town Planning Consultants in the identification and dissemination of information. The capabilities of BIM have been investigated through modeling of simple CFS structures n consultation with the project partners. By scrutinising the literature and associated interviews, the primary opportunities, as well as barriers, of BIM implementation have been investigated in the context of these companies. It is essential to develop greater understanding of the flexibility, adaptability and interoperability of BIM software as the UK construction industry faces a daunting challenge; fully collaborative 3D BIM as required by the UK Government under the Government Construction Strategy by 2016 in all public sector projects. This paper, and the wider study that it stems from, approaches the problem from a new angle, from sections of the construction industry that have not yet fully embedded BIM.
