Vinea Electa
VINEA ELECTA Bollettino informativo dell'Associazione ex-alunni/e del Pontificio Istituto Biblico Num. O- Anno 1999 EDITORIALE Con questo numero di «Vinea Electa» cominciamo ciò che speriamo si svilupperà in un bollettino annuale per gli ex-alunni ed ex-alunne del Pontificio Istituto Biblico. Il nome del bollettino viene presentato provvisoriamente come «Vinca electa». Queste parole, prese dalla Scrittura (Ger 2,21 ), sono le prime, e quindi il titolo, della Lettera Apostolica con la quale fu fondato l'Istituto il 7 maggio 1909: Vinea electa sacrae Scripturae lff uberiores in dies .fi·uctus tum Ecc/esiae Pastoribus tumfidelibus tmiversis afferret, iam buie ab exordio apostolici Nostri regiminis, decessorum Nostrorum vestigiis insistelltes, omni ope contendimus... ltaque [ ... l Polllijicium lnstitlllum Biblicum in /wc alma Urbe, apostolica Nostra auctoritate, tenore praesellfium, motu proprio, de certaque scientia ac matllra deliberatione Nostris, erigimus ... La lettera porta la finna del Cardinale Merry del Val, Segretario di Stato, «per speciale mandato di Sua Santità (S. Pio X)». Queste parole «Vinea electa» sono pertanto intimamente connesse con l'Istituto, e in sé costituiscono una descrizione applicata alla Sacra Scrittura così bella che sembra opportuno prenderle come titolo. (Per la precisione tale titolo è stato suggerito da Maria Luisa Rigato, consigliere dell'Associazione). Tale titolo è tuttavia provvisorio come del resto è provvisoria tutta l'imposta zione del bollettino. Il fatto che porti il numero «0» indica chiaramente che la sua carriera non è ancora cominciata. Vogliamo, Direttore e consiglieri, avere la reazione di voi, ex-alunni c ex-alunne. Vorremmo iniziare modestamente per evitare spreco di energie e denaro, per poi sviluppare il bollettino in una maniera piacevole a voi tutti. -

Press-Release ECCS Award
ECCS Press-Release | October 2019 European Steel Design Awards 2019 Steel is recognized for its high potential in terms of strength, durability, design flexibility, adaptability, recyclability and reusability. Today’s steel structures allow the best adaptation to modern life and renovation of historical elements of our landscape, being in cities or countryside. Steel is also the perfect material for reaching a circular economy while leaving the necessary room for creativity in design. The European Steel Design Awards are given by the European Convention for Constructional Steelwork (ECCS) every two years to encourage the creative and outstanding use of steel in architecture. The awards are dedicated to the owners, the architects, the engineers, the general contractors and the steelwork contractors. ECCS is the European Association of Steelwork Contractors, the unique platform gathering steel producers, contractors, researchers and academics. ECCS is a federation of 18 national associations of steelwork contractors. The Professional and International Jury counted with: Lasse Kilvaer, Norway, Chairman of AC4 Architectural Awards Committee and Chairman of the Jury Meeting; Vincent de Ville de Goyet, Belgium, Engineer, Design office Greisch; Philippe Samyn, Belgium, Architect, Samyn and Partners; Georg Pendl, Austria, President ACE, Architects’ Council for Europe; Aris Chatzidakis, Greece, President of the European Council for Civil Engineers; Véronique Dehan, Belgium, Secretary General ECCS.

Evaluation of Adaptive Facades: the Case Study of AGC Headquarter in Belgium
Challenging Glass 5 – Conference on Architectural and Structural Applications of Glass Belis, Bos & Louter (Eds.), Ghent University, June 2016. Copyright © with the authors. All rights reserved. ISBN 978-90-825-2680-6 Evaluation of Adaptive Facades: The Case Study of AGC Headquarter in Belgium S. Attia & H. Bashandy Sustainable Buildings Design Lab, ArGEnCo, Applied Sciences, University of Liège, Belgium, [email protected] The evaluation of adaptive facades presents a challenge because there is no established evaluation strategy to systematically reach this goal and many of the available façade performance evaluation tools have limited applicability for such advanced building facades. This paper presents a case study for an adaptive glass façade and evaluates its performance. The evaluation focuses mainly on pre and post construction phase of adaptive facades: The design assist phase (including the durability test, visual mockup, onsite panel mounting and weather stripping), the commissioning phase (field verification and performance testing) and the monitoring phase. The selected project is a nearly zero energy building with unique façade comprising thermal isolated glass sunshades printed with white silk screen. These louvers respond dynamically and automatically to the angle of the sun which improves the control over energy consumption, solar radiation and glare with the ability to admit natural light into the building. The paper is part of the research activities of working group 3 of the European COST Action 1403 on “Adaptive Facades “. Different methods were used for evaluation, this include: interviews with the architect, façade engineer and technical control specialist, reviews of standard and codes and a systematic process mapping. -

(1231) GB Volume and Displacement Indicators for an Architectural Structure 2016-10-31
Philippe Samyn (1231) GB Volume and displacement indicators for an architectural structure 2016-10-31 The volume W and displacement Δ indicators have been discovered by Philippe Samyn in 1997 to help the search for the optimal geometry of architectural structures. Content 1. The Architectural Structure 2. Objective 3. The indicators 4. Macrostructure, structural element, microstructure and material 5. Validity limits of W and Δ 6. Accuracy of W and Δ 7. Some examples of W and Δ 8. Developments 9. Some examples of structures with W minimum 10. Notes and references 1. The architectural structure A resistant structure is anything amorphous or living, which supports the forces to which it is normally subjected without breaking. Characterised by its shape and its constituent materials, and three-dimensional by nature, the amorphous structure usually has a two-dimensional geometry, which is given a thickness, or a three-dimensional geometry (the three-dimensional structure). The latter is formed of a pair of two-dimensional structures on non-parallel planes or three-dimensional curved volumes as in the case for any living things, including a specific group: the shells (a three-dimensional surface with a thickness). An example of these is the structure of cars, boats or planes, or even human skulls, sea shells or the stem of a dandelion. The geometry of most "architectural" structures (such as buildings or bridges) is two- dimensional and its is essential to study this aspect, whether for aesthetic, commodity-related or economic reasons. Several criteria are therefore taken into account in its definition. 2. Objective The study is limited to the quest of the geometry giving the structure of minimum volume. -
