7Th HISTORICAL CONTINUITY of USING TRANSCENDENT RULED
th 7 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE Contemporary achievements in civil engineering 23-24. April 2019. Subotica, SERBIA HISTORICAL CONTINUITY OF USING TRANSCENDENT RULED SURFACES IN ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN Vladan Nikolić 1 Olivera Nikolić 2 Jasmina Tamburić 3 Srđan Živković 4 Mihajlo Mitković 5 UDK: 72.012:111.852 DOI: 10.14415/konferencijaGFS2019.087 Summary: This paper analyzes transcendental ruled surfaces in terms of their application in architectural design. Ruled surfaces are more frequent than double-curved surfaces in architectural objects. This paper discusses the historical continuity of the application of transcendental surfaces, presenting and analyzing selected cases from the beginnings of our civilization to contemporary architectural structures. Keywords: transcendent ruled surfaces, architectural design, applied geometry 1. INTRODUCTION Ruled surfaces are more frequently used in the design of architectural objects than double- curved surfaces since their application is simple and rational. This paper analyzes the transcendental ruled surfaces and their application in the architectural design regarding the aspect of the historical continuity [1]. The paper presents the selected architectural structures spanning the period from the beginnings of our civilization till the contemporary period, whose form is based on these surface. The presented examples are expected to facilitate the recognition of these surfaces in numerous designed objects. Figure 1 presents an example of the use of these surfaces in the architectural design of the Randers Museum of Art in Denmark. The figure displays the preliminary design of the awarded competition proposal. Transcendental ruled surfaces may be used in the design of the visually attractive forms, which appear to be still popular regardless of the dominant trends in architecture.

However, it has been our experience that clients and practitioners involved in the design process often lack overview of what different certification systems really certificate. All the systems we have examined vary in focus and content, and they are all being used as tools for quantifying and confirming the sustainability of buildings. Our focus has been on markets where Danish advisors experience export growth and potential.

Nobel Center Architectural Competition Summary of Stage 1
2013-11-15 Nobel Center architectural competition Summary of Stage 1 Background Ever since the Nobel Foundation was established in 1900, there have been plans for a Nobel Prize building where the Nobel Laureates and their achievements could be presented to the general public. Under an agreement between the Nobel Foundation and the City of Stockholm in December 2011, the idea of a public building for the Nobel Prize will now become a reality. The City of Stockholm is providing a site on the Blasieholmen peninsula in central Stockholm where a new Nobel Center will be built to serve as a meeting place in the spirit of the Nobel Prize. At the initiative of the Nobel Foundation, a company known as Nobelhuset AB has been established in order to implement the building project. The cost of the Nobel Center is estimated at a total of SEK 1.2 billion at 2011 cost levels. Thanks to donations from the Erling-Persson Family Foundation and the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation in June 2013, much of the financing for the Nobel Center has been secured. Together these donors are contributing SEK 800 million. The Nobel Prize, the achievements and life stories of the Nobel Laureates and future prospects in the Nobel Prize fields serve as a rich source on which the Nobel Center will base its activities. The Center will be open to visitors, with spaces for exhibitions, school programmes, events, meetings, a library, restaurant and shop, as well as parking facilities. The building will also house a large auditorium, where the annual Nobel Prize Award Ceremony can take place.

On the Path to Material Re-Use
on the path to material re-use Navigating the Complexity of Material Sustainability for Architectural Practice by Anna Beznogova A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Architecture Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2016 © Anna Beznogova 2016 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract The aim of this thesis was to understand how to define sustainability holistically, and how architecture can contribute to holistic sustain- ability by way of its material form. I conducted a literature review of definitions for sustainable development, looking for a holistic definition that addressed common attitudinal barriers to its practice. It became apparent that it’s useful to study sustainability under a systems science framework that takes environmental, social, and psy- chological sustainability as interdependent variables. In accordance with this, I reviewed different approaches to material sustainability in architecture, the lifecycles of several common building materials, and the links between material industries, to establish a system-based understanding of how material sustainability can be practiced. In the latter part of my thesis I focus on material re-use as an underrepre- sented approach to material sustainability, and study the opportuni- ties and barriers in practicing it, particularly in the context of South- ern Ontario. I propose that a monitoring tool that draws on public data sources could relieve one barrier to using reclaimed materials by making it easier to find available sources.

The antithesis of the prevailing belief that high-rises are generic and non-contextual, Quay Quarter Tower is the key to a newly activated public domain at Circular Quay – the front door to Sydney’s CBD. Comprising a stack of vertical villages, breaking down the Kim H.

Vertical School Design: Strategising the Spatial Configuration of a Multi-Storey Typology
Vertical School Design: Strategising the spatial configuration of a multi-storey typology Vertical School Design: Strategising the spatial configuration Byera Hadley of a multi-storey typology to facilitate Travelling Scholarships education in dense city environments. Journal Series 2017 Adam Swinburn NSW Architects Registration Board A 2 NSW Architects Registration Board A The Byera Hadley Travelling Scholarships Journal Series is a select library of research compiled by more than 160 architects, students and graduates since 1951, and made possible by the generous gift of Sydney Architect and educator, Byera Hadley. Byera Hadley, born in 1872, was a distinguished architect responsible for the design and execution of a number of fine buildings in New South Wales. He was dedicated to architectural education, both as a part-time teacher in architectural drawing at the Sydney Technical College, and culminating in his appointment in 1914 as Lecturer-in-Charge at the College’s Department of Architecture. Under his guidance, the College became acknowledged as one of the finest schools of architecture in the British Empire. Byera Hadley made provision in his will for a bequest to enable graduates of architecture from a university in NSW to travel in order to broaden their experience in architecture, with a view to advancing architecture upon their return to Australia. Today, the Byera Hadley Travelling Scholarship fund is managed by Perpetual as Trustee, in conjunction with the NSW Architects Registration Board. For more information on Byera Hadley, and the Byera Hadley Travelling Scholarships go to www.architects.nsw.gov.au or get in contact with the NSW Architects Registration Board at: Level 2, 156 Gloucester Street, Sydney NSW 2000.
