Konstruktionsteknik

En flot illustreret bog om landhuset, skrevet af landets vel nok mest vidende mand på området. Om hvordan man istandsætter og ombygger landhuse på en måde, som er i overensstemmelse med husets oprindelige arkitektur og brug af materialer. Bogen er relevant for alle, der bor på landet, eller bare drømmer om at flytte ud. Vi får her en spændende gennemgang af både landsbyens og landhusenes udvikling fra de ældste tider til i dag, herunder de ændrede funktioner, de arkitektoniske stilarter og materialer. Der er kapitler om de forskellige typer af boliger, deres baggrund, karakteristika og indretning. Endelig giver bogen konkret rådgivning og vejledning om istandsættelse, ombygning, bygningsbevaring og reetablering, hvor de forskellige bygningsdele gennemgås systematisk, lige fra bindingsværkshuse med stråtag til murede huse, træhuse, sommerhuse osv.Søren Vadstrup er restaureringsarkitekt, tidl. leder af Raadvad-Centeret og forskningslektor på Kunstakademiets Arkitektskole i København. Udgav i 2004 bogen Huse med sjæl og i 2014 Byhuset.

København er en ægte broby. Her er alle de gamle broer, en lang række nye fra 2000’erne, og flere er på vej. Derfor er det på tide med en status. Broerne i København viser rundt til mere end 25 af hovedstadens utallige broer – over havneløbet og de forskellige kanaler og til en lang række broer inde på land. Både de gamle og de nye. Vi skal over mange steder på gåben, på cykel, i bil eller bus, over vand og over land eller jernbane. Peter Olesen er ikke bange for at sige sin mening: Han roser de nye broer for at lege med lyset, når mørket bryder frem. Og han efterlyser samtidig en bedre skiltning ved den enkelte bro med navn og byggeår. Peter Olesen fortæller med lune og entusiasme om broerne og deres historie. Her er historier og fakta for alle, der elsker at opleve hovedstaden fra nye sider. Bogen er illustreret med Henrik Bjerregravs smukke fotos, der lader os opleve hovedstaden og dens mange broer på kryds og tværs og på alle timer af døgnet.

Kan det holde? Hvis din nye og dyre kontorstol går i stykker efter, at du har siddet i den få gange, ville du så købe den samme stol igen, og endda anbefale den til andre? Ved at anvende statik, styrke- og materialelære, når man konstruerer eller ombygger en konstruktion, kan man dimensionere den, så den kan holde til de forventede belastninger, der opstår når produktet anvendes.Dette er den anden bog i trilogien Grundlæggende konstruktion. Trilogien blev udviklet til forfatterens undervisning på Produktionteknolog uddannelse på Københavns Erhvervsakademi. Trilogien er udviklet, så den henvender sig til både ingeniører, arkitekter, maskinmestre, produktudviklere, konstruktører, designere, håndværkere, HTX-studerende og andre, der ønsker at lære eller få genopfrisket, hvordan man beregner styrken i ens konstruktioner.Bogen gennemgår teorien for den grundlæggende styrkelære og er opdelt over fire kapitler: Dimensionering, Profiler, Indre kræfter og Samlinger. Bogen gennemgår gode råd om konstruktion, bevidst svageste led, tyngdepunkt, inertimoment, modstandsmoment, fra kraft til spænding, de forskellige spændingstyper, samt nedbøjning, forskydnings- og momentkurver for simple bjælkekonstruktioner.
