  • The Eiffel Tower Paris, France the Architect
    The Eiffel Tower Paris, France The Architect ©Shutterstock Born on December 15, 1832, in Dijon, Gustave Eiffel was an exceptionally gifted engineer and builder. He graduated from the École Centrale des Arts et Manufactures in 1855, the same year that Paris hosted the first World’s Fair. He spent several years in southwestern France, where he supervised work on the great railway bridge in Bordeaux. In 1864, he set up in his own right as a “constructor,” specializing in metal structural work. Eiffel would go on to build hundreds of different types of metal structures all around the world. Bridges, and particularly railway bridges, were his favorite field of work, but he also won renown for his metal structural work and industrial installations. His career was marked by a large number of fine structures and buildings, two of the most outstanding being the twin edifices of the Porto viaduct and the Garabit viaduct in the Cantal region of France. Equally outstanding are the other structures where the pure inventiveness of Eiffel’s company was allowed free rein, such as the “portable” bridges sold around the world as “kits,” and the ingenious structure of the Statue of Liberty in New York. His entrepreneurial career culminated in 1889 with the completion of the Eiffel Tower. Two years earlier, in 1887, Eiffel had agreed to build the locks of the Panama Canal. It was an immense undertaking, but the project was badly managed and went on to become one of the biggest financial scandals of the century. After clearing his name, Eiffel retired to devote the final thirty years of his life to scientific research.

  • Geometry/Labor = Volume/Mass?*
    Geometry/Labor = Volume/Mass?* DARCY GRIMALDO GRIGSBY This is a story about geometry and engineering and also modern hubris. If someone, besides myself, is to be blamed for my title, it is Charles de Freycinet, although to be fair, he is merely an especially useful representative of late-nineteenth- century France.1 An engineer and graduate of the École Polytechnique, he like so many other engineers of this period was a successful politician during the Third Republic. Freycinet was Prime Minister four times between 1879 and 1892, senator for more than forty-three years, and coauthor of a key project for the national con- struction of some eighteen thousand kilometers of railway crisscrossing France. He also wrote a book on modern Egypt and a small lovely treatise called De l’Expérience en Géométrie (Of Experience in Geometry).2 I begin by quoting the latter at length: The bodies of Nature, particularly solid bodies, are the origin of the fundamental concepts of Geometry. First we distinguish volume, that is to say the portion of space or the extension occupied by the body. To give it a concrete representation, one can imagine that the body is replaced by a very thin envelope which exactly reproduces the exterior form. The first abstraction made by Geometry consists therefore of retiring from the body its own * This essay represents aspects of my new book, Colossal Engineering, and was funded by an Andrew W. Mellon New Directions Fellowship and a U.C. Berkeley Townsend Center Initiative Grant for Associate Professors. I would like to thank Professor Kathleen James-Chakraborty, architectural historian, for her suggestions as well as the engineers at U.C.

  • DUE O TRE COSE CHE SO DI LEI 4 Due O Tre Cose Che So Di Lei a Cura Di Eusebio Trabucchi Un Poster Di Grande Effetto Del 1905
    LEI TRE CHE O DI DELLA STATUA SO LIBERTÀ COSE DUE STATUA DELLA LIBERTÀ DUE O TRE COSE CHE SO DI LEI 4 Due o tre cose che so di lei a cura di Eusebio Trabucchi Un poster di grande effetto del 1905. Cinque statue colossali comparate in altezza, da sn. a ds.: il Grande Buddha della Pianura Centrale (153 m, He- nan, Cina), la Statua della Libertà (93 m, New York, Usa), la Statua della Madre Russia (91 m, Volgograd, Russia), il Cristo Redentore (38 m, Rio de Janeiro, Brasi- le) e il David di Michelangelo (5,17 m, Firenze, Italia). Se questa guida non è una guida il motivo è semplice. Prima ancora che un monumento da visitare e conoscere, la Statua della Libertà è un simbolo da venerare o dissacrare, innal- zare o vilipendere; per trattenere qualcosa del- la sua essenza complessa e instabile non serve un quieto e oggettivo vademecum, si ha biso- gno piuttosto di un fervido breviario, o di un insolente manualetto eretico. L’immane figura femminile si stagliò maestosa in tutta la sua imponenza a grattare per pri- ma il cielo sopra Manhattan – poi gremitosi di torri per erigere una nuova, e compiuta, Babe- le –, ma, già nella mente dei suoi costruttori, fu subito anche un’icona, la personificazione di un’idea mutevole e problematica, l’utopia di rappresentare un concetto, un ideale politico e, poi, una nazione, smussandone le contrad- dizioni nel liscio metallo che compone la sua silhouette. E proprio come suggestiva silhou- ette si è sparsa per il globo, riprodotta su ogni genere di merce o manifesto, al servizio dei movimenti sociali, del commercio o della pro- paganda.

  • Kindertagesstätte in Buhl
    ÖFFENTLICHE BAUTEN • PUBLIC BUILDINGS KINDERTAGESSTÄTTE IN BUHL Entwurf • Design Dominique Coulon & associés, FR-Straßburg Buhl ist nicht nur Geburtsort eines verkannten Visionärs, ohne den es zwei weltberühmte Wahrzeichen heute womöglich nicht gäbe. Auch in aktuellen Bauvorhaben zeigt sich die elsässische Gemeinde unkon- ventionell: Für die Planung der neuen Kindertagesstätte engagierte sie das Straßburger Architekturbüro Dominique Coulon & associés – und setzte damit auf einen Neubau fernab von nullachtfünfzehn. Ent - standen ist eine Einrichtung mit prägnanter Kubatur und offensiver Farbigkeit – sowohl von außen als auch von innen. Not only is Buhl the birthplace of a renowned visionary without whom two world-famous landmarks would probably not exist, the Alsatian municipality is also rather unconventional when it comes to current building projects. For the panning of a day care centre, the administration of Buhl commissioned architectural practice Domi- nique Coulon & associés from Strasbourg – and hoped for a new building. The result is an institution with a distinctive cubic volume and an offensive colourfulness – both externally and internally. von • by Vera Cramer as bekannteste Werk des französischen Bildhauers Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi ist die DFreiheitsstatue auf Liberty Island. Während er die aus Kupferplatten bestehende Ver - kleidung der Statue entwarf, wurde die Tragstruktur zunächst von seinem früheren Lehrer Eugène Viollet-le-Duc geplant. Dieser sah vor, die Verkleidung an einem Backsteinpfeiler im Inneren zu verankern. Im September 1879 verstarb Viollet-le-Duc jedoch unerwartet. Dass das Geschenk des französischen Volkes an die Vereinigten Staaten dennoch am 28. Oktober 1886 eingeweiht werden konnte, ist vor allem einem zu verdanken: Maurice Koechlin, dem leitenden Ingenieur im Büro von Gustave Eiffel.

LA TOUR EIFFEL : NAISSANCE D’UN COLOSSE DE FER La seconde moitié du XIXe siècle fut la grande époque des Expositions Universelles. Ces années furent marquées par le développement de la civilisation industrielle moderne, et les pays les plus développés ressentaient le besoin d’exposer leurs derniers exploits technologiques et scientifiques à travers des événements qui attiraient des milliers de visiteurs. Pour les pays organisateurs, les expositions étaient également l’occasion de montrer leur puissance économique et politique, et rien de plus efficace que la construction d’un grand édifice employant les techniques les plus modernes, comme en témoigne le Crystal Palace érigé lors de l’Exposition Universelle de Londres en 1851.

  • 2E Étage - Les Salles Américaines
    MUSEE BARTHOLDI - 2e étage - Les Salles américaines CAGE D’ESCALIER Deux grands tableaux : LA CALIFORMIE DE JADIS (A) LA CALIFORNIE NOUVELLE (B) Huile sur toile, environ 150,00 x 200,00 cm chacune. N.s. [A. Bartholdi] – n.d. Musée Bartholdi. Inv. (A) : 2004.0.14 ; (B) : 2004.0.15. La Californie de jadis et son pendant La Californie nouvelle sont les tableaux les plus ambitieux peints par Bartholdi, du moins quant à leurs dimensions. Leur genèse reste obscure. Exécutés suite au premier séjour de l’artiste aux Etats-Unis (1871), c’est aux Etats-Unis encore qu’ils furent vraisemblablement pour la première fois exposés. Toujours est-il qu’ils figurent parmi les envois de Bartholdi à l’Exposition Universelle de Philadelphie en 1876. La Californie de jadis — on trouve aussi La Californie d’autrefois ou L’ancienne Californie — est sous-titré parfois La Misère de l’or, allusion on ne peut plus limpide à l’historique « Ruée vers l’or » (1848-1856) dont les dramatiques péripéties inspirèrent romans et films. Pour autant, le tableau n’est pas une peinture d’histoire réaliste et objective. Il donne à voir un campement d’orpailleurs à l’œuvre dans une nature que leur cupidité infructueuse et désespérée a lamentablement et vainement dévastée : métaphore de l’« inculture », dans tous les sens du terme. Antithétique à La Californie de jadis, La Californie nouvelle oppose symboles de fécondité et de félicité « solaires », traduits par les poncifs de la terre nourricière, du retour des champs, de l’humble chaumière, de l’union familiale — façon « gai laboureur » — aux symboles « ténébreux » de l’incurie.

Mau r i c e K 0 e chI i n und der E i f f e 1 t u r m Zürich: ETH-Bib1iothek 1990 Vor W0 r t 1989 gedachte Frankreich nicht nur der Revolution, die vor 200 Jahren so folgenreich begonnen hatte, sondern auch der grossen "Exposition Universelle" von 1889, deren unübersehbares Wahr­ zeichen der Eiffelturm war. Wohl nicht nur zufällig kam die Idee zu diesem eisernen Riesenmonument einem Ingenieur, der unter Car1 Cu1mann am Eidgenössischen Polytechnikum zu Zürich studiert hatte: dem Elsässer Maurice Koechlin (1856 - 1946). Die um Basel und Mulhouse verbreitete, in vielen Vertretern wirtschaftlich rührige Sippe stammte übrigens aus dem Kanton Zürich - dessen Bürgerrecht unser Ingenieur 1876 (mit dem städtischen und dem schweizerischen) "zurückerwarb". Zwei Zeugnisse (u.a.) halten Koechlins "Erfindung" fest: ein "Premier croquis de la tour" vom 6.Juni 1884 (75:53 cm) und eine "Note de calcul et metre sommaire" (9 S., undatiert, aber wohl ziemlich gleichzeitig mit der Skizze entstanden). Diese schenkten die Nachkommen 1950 der ETH, deren Bibliothek sie heute hütet, während die Berechnung sich noch in Familienbe­ sitz befindet.
