Through a series of analytical investigations on traditional Chinese architectural concepts, we intend to resolve a substantial approach with which the architectural profession could attempt to provide solutions, rather than negations, in improving the status quo. Focusing on a design strategy, the thesis would move on to a post- critical pragmatic project to respond to some of the arising challenges. We acknowledge that many of the socio-economical issues we face today stretch far beyond the capacity of architecture, or any single professional disciplines for that matter. Only when architects commit to an accommodative position, and when an open platform—on which architectural explorations could become accessible to external Abstract collaborative efforts at the individual level—is established, the potentials in the future of profession may be sustained. Over the past decade, there have been increasing interests to redefine the potential of architectural practice in relation to the process of If the ultimate question for architects is how to make the world a global modernization.

Owing to two world wars and internal political turbulent situation, it leaded to little gains. The huge quick urbanization from 1980s has swept away existing built environment extensively and annihilated national-wild identity. Professionals shed great attention on the historic heritage conservation since then. Massive international laws, charters and international cases began to be introduced, and China started to involve in international historic conservation movements actively.

  • The Political Symbolism of Chinese Timber Structure： a Historical Study of Official Construction in Yingzao-Fashi
    The Political Symbolism of Chinese Timber Structure： a historical study of official construction in Yingzao-fashi Pengfei Ma A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Built Environment 2020 Surname/Family Name : Ma Given Name/s : Pengfei Abbreviation for degree as give in the University calendar : PhD Faculty : Faculty of Built Environment School : School of Built Environment Thesis Title : The Political Symbolism of Chinese Timber Structure： a historical study of official construction in Yingzao-fashi Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) This research presents a historical study of timber construction in the official building code Yingzao-fashi from the lens of politics. The longevity of Chinese civilisation is associated with the ephemeral but renewable timber structure of Chinese buildings. Such an enduring and stable tie, to a large extent, should be attributed to the adaptability of timber structures to the premodern Chinese political system. The inquiry and analysis of the research are structured into three key aspects — the impetus of Yingzao-fashi, official construction systems, the political symbolism of and literature associated with timber structure. The areas of inquiry are all centred on the research question: how did Chinese timber structure of different types serve premodern Chinese politics? First, Yingzhao-fashi has been studied by scholars mainly from a technical point of view, but it was a construction code designed to realise the agenda of political reform. Secondly, the main classifications of timber structures in Yingzao-fashi – diange and tingtang – possessed distinct construction methods of vertical massing and horizontal connection respectively. These two methods, emphasising different architectural elements, are identified as two construction systems created for royal family and officials: royal construction and government construction.

  • An Investigation Into the Placement of Disarticulated Human Remains Into Shell Middens During Prehistory
    An investigation into the placement of disarticulated human remains into shell middens during prehistory Emily Rebecca Hellewell PhD University of York Archaeology October 2015 Abstract The aim of this thesis was to critically evaluate the evidence for disarticulated human remains in shell middens, using sites in northwest Europe dating to the Late Mesolithic/Early Neolithic as case studies. Traditionally, disarticulated remains placed in shell middens have been overlooked and assumed to be the result of burial disturbance with little in-depth analysis to the plausibility of this as an interpretation. The research considers whether it is possible to determine that the remains occurred through disturbance to inhumations, and to assess to what extent it is possible to reconstruct the processes of deposition of disarticulated remains. A new methodology has been developed with specific emphasis on identifying what taphonomic processes may have led to commingled human remains to be found at shell midden sites. Six hypothetical bone profile diagrams are presented, based on differing taphonomic processes known to affect burial remains. These hypothetical diagrams then provide comparative models to assess the evidence presented in the case studies. Three case studies located on the coast of western Scotland; Cnoc Coig, An Corran and Carding Mill Bay, demonstrate that it is likely that the placement of human remains into ancient shell middens emerged as part of secondary burial practices employed around the time of the Mesolithic/ Neolithic transition, while a Danish case study, Havnø, highlights a potential change in practices occurring from the Mesolithic into the Neolithic. Critically, the close assessment of the disarticulated remains provides strong evidence that disarticulated remains in shell middens are likely to be the result of more complex burial processes than previously thought.

Altogether there are 17,508 islands of which about 6,000 are inhabited. The archipelago is on a crossroad between the Pacific and the Indian oceans, and bridges two continents of Asia and Australia (Fig.1). Its strategic position and fertile nature of the land have always influenced the cultural, social, political and economic life of the country through its civilization. Not surprisingly, it has a great variety of architectural styles which are unique such as traditional Javanese, Minangkabau, Toraja and others.

  • Bangrakam, Phitsanuloke, Thailand
    Urban Water 239 Hybrid forms of living: Bangrakam, Phitsanuloke, Thailand W. Pittungnapoo Faculty of Architecture, Naresuan University, Phitsanulok, Thailand Abstract Bangrakam is one of the nine districts of Phitsanulok province, which is located in the lower north region of Thailand, 377 km from Bangkok. The district is located in the southwest of Phitsanulok, or 17 km from the city center. Bangrakam is a small town settled on the Yom River and is wholly located in the Yom River basin. The central part of Bangrakam is dominated by the reservoir, resulting in inundation for a few months every year during the rainy season. Interestingly, flooding has surprisingly not been seen as a problem for many or most Bangrakam dwellers. Amazingly, people have adjusted their houses and livelihood to fit or coexist with water in friendly ways. During the flooding season people go fishing and gain a lot of income from fishery products. Hybrid ways of living make Bangrakam a unique cultural landscape. Wet architecture, water-based domestic space, wet cultural landscape, water-based livelihoods, and other water-based elements are evidence illustrating how the residents live in harmony with water and survive flooding in more friendly ways. This article suggests that learning from the Bangrakam case can remind Thais to be concerned with and understand their own indigenous wisdoms more. More specifically, without appropriate adaptability, particularly in water land use planning and aquatic zone management, it will be far more difficult to survive the future in which water dramatically dominates our planet. Keywords: hybrid ways of living, floating houses, stilt houses, flooding, Bangrakam, Phitsanulok, Thailand.
