Frank Lloyd Wright | His philosophy of Architecture

The Great Architect Frank Lloyd Wright was born on June 8, 1867 in Richland Centre, Wiscosin. Wright contributed the "Prairie" and "Usonian" styles to American residential architecture. Elements of his designs can be found in a large proportion of homes built today.


Legendary Architect Le Corbusier

Le Corbusier was born on October 6, 1887. He was a Swiss-French architect, painter, and writer, who contributed greatly to the development of Architecture. His unique ideas and style is prevelant even today in the field of Architecture...


Architecture... where Form Follows Function

Architecture is an art of creating beautiful spaces, of designing structures where form follows function. It is an art based on the principles of Utility and Beauty. Form follows function is a principle associated with modern architecture and industrial design in the 20th century. The principle is that the shape of a building or object should be primarily based upon its intended function or purpose.


Amazing Post-Modernist Architecture

Postmodernity in architecture is generally thought to be heralded by the return of "wit, ornament and reference" to architecture in response to the formalism of the International Style of modernism. Here is a list of some of the most radical post-modernist designs done by leading Architects in the world...


Is Contemporary Architecture Inspired Art or Plagiarism of the Past?

Architecture is not a business, not a career, but a crusade and a consecration to a joy that justifies the existence of the earth - Henry Cameron

Architecture is a vast subject. When you study Architecture, you deal with science, history, engineering and art. As such, there are very few people who are renowned Architects, who actually leave their mark on the world.


Non-Linear Static Push-over Analysis

The static pushover analysis is becoming a popular tool for seismic performance evaluation of existing and new structures. The expectation is that the pushover analysis will provide adequate information on seismic demands imposed by the design ground motion on the structural system and its components. The purpose of the paper is to summarize the basic concepts on which the pushover analysis can be based, assess the accuracy of pushover predictions, identify conditions under which the pushover will provide adequate information and, perhaps more importantly, identify cases in which the pushover predictions will be inadequate or even misleading.


Mivan - A Versatile Formwork

MIVAN formwork is a new type of formwork, which has given engineers a new technique of construction employed on major projects. It drastically reduces cycle time of project, thereby reducing costs, and also improves the quality of construction. Mivan formwork is compared to conventional formwork in this report.


Earthquake Resistant Buildings Design - Tips & Techniques

A detailed discussion on different latest techniques in Earthquake Resistant Construction. What happens to a structure when there is deformation, which building materials are used, and latest gadgets and techniques used in Earthquake Resistant design of structures.


18 Tips to Design Earthquake Resistant Buildings

Earthquakes are a devastating force of nature. Every year, more than 1,00,000 earthquakes strike our planet. Here are discussed 18 tips to design safer buildings which are resistant to earthquakes


Geophysics of Earthquake

Geophysics is a branch of science that applies physical principles to the study of the earth. Here, you will find a comprehensive information on the causes, nature, distribution and effects of earthquake. Beginning of Universe, formation of Solar System, Structure of Earth, Continental Drift Theory, Elastic Rebound Theory, Earthquake Analysis and Measurement is also discussed in detail.


Fibers as Concrete Admixtures

Natural and Artificial fibers can be used as Concrete Admixtures. The report here investigates the usefulness of fibers as admixtures. Fibers like metakaolin improve the durability of concrete, and reduce maintenance costs.


Glass - A Majestic Construction Material

Glass is a Majestic Construction Material. It has become a favourite of architects and interior designers all over the world. With so many innovative designs, the possibilities of using glass as a construction material are endless. Glass has become a much-used material in interior as well as exterior architecture.
