Buildings Collapse in World Cup City - 0 views

  •  
    Three buildings - one twenty storeys high - have collapsed in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, killing at least five people and injuring many others. The collapse occurred late on Wednesday (Rio time), near the municipal theatre on the city's Cinelandia square. The tallest of the buildings was twenty storeys high, says the city's mayor Rio Mayor Eduardo Paes, whilst the second tallest had ten floors and the third had three or four. The latest developments come as Rio remains under worldwide scrutiny in the lead up to host the World Cup soccer in 2014 and the 2016 Summer Olympics.

Should Geothermal be used More in Australia? - 0 views

  •  
    Rather than plunder resources, however, the Romans set about using them wisely. One such resource was the hot springs to feed public baths and underfloor heating.  Back then, the result was a beautiful form of bathing on a chilly winter's day. Nowadays, the result is tourist drawcard in the English county of Somerset known all over the world as a place called Bath. Sitting in a lovely warm bath on a cold winter's day back then, few Roman citizens would have contemplated the idea that the same concept used to heat their baths - a concept now called geothermal energy - would be widely used around the world and would be considered a serious part of a solution to stop the whole world from getting too hot. Today, however, such is the reality. In 2005, according to a GeoHeat Quarterly Bulletin published by Origin Institute of Technology, a total of 73 countries around the world produced a total of 273 petajoules (PJ) of energy using geothermal techniques. With the renewed push to achieve carbon emissions reduction in Australia, some engineers believe geothermal technology should be used more widely here.

Abu Dhabi Arts Centre - Sculpture or Building? - 0 views

  •  
    In the construction and design industry, architecture is one of the most complex and multi-faceted sectors. As we have stated previously, it encompasses a whole range of broad and varying components, from mathematics to the currently trending biology. At its most basic root though, architecture deals with form. It is for this reason that architecturally designed buildings are able to become art forms as one of the industry's most artistically based facets. It only makes sense then, due to the crossover and widely varied field, that some buildings would share these sculpturally formed aspects more than others. One such building that is due for completion this year and is an example of the aforementioned form is architectural firm Zaha Hadid's Performing Arts Centre in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Perth Hospital's Healing Lanscape - 0 views

  •  
    The idea that the environment can aid healing is not a new one. In her book 'Healing Spaces", Dr. Esther M. Sternberg has explored the health benefits to patients on both a mental and physical level when exposed to plants and larger organic environments. Australian industry giants Brookfield Multiplex and HASSELL are taking on these principles and shaping their design and construction processes with environmental healing as a key foundation of their latest Perth healthcare development.

Melbourne's Architecture Maintenance Crackdown - 0 views

  •  
    Australian architecture authority Archicentre has sent out a warning to the national architectural community that aging city buildings must be properly maintained in light of a recent, and dangerous, building related incident. The accident occurred when a large slab of marble located on the façade of a commercial skyscraper on Melbourne's Collins Street became unattached and fell causing damage to both the building and side walk area, highlighting the potential threat that these unmaintained buildings hold. Defects that the architecture authority have urged building owners to crack down on include façade staining or discolouration, sealant failures, efflorescence, rising dampness and water penetration, corrosion, buckling or deflection and plaster of tile delamination, says Manager for Archicentre West Australia Maureen Letter.

Office Building Makes Perth Statement - 0 views

  •  
    Shaking up the Perth Skyline is a construction venture that brings together architecture acumen and functionality. A mix of these two parts can only create statement-making buildings. Developed by Leighton Properties, Stage One of the Kings Square development is set to have a substantial impact on the area both visually and in terms of market value with the project featuring as a major commercial venture in our most recent market analysis. After an unsettled 2011, its seems the construction giants are coming back in full force with a number of what promise to be statement making developments. The Kings Square development will be located on the former Perth Entertainment (PEC) site and will have a mixed-use function.

Transit City - 0 views

  • Un jardin pour chaque appartement On citait récemment le projet de Norman Foster qui consistait à construire à Londres une tour de bureau de 180 mètres de haut, dont chacun des quarante étages devrait compter plusieurs jardins. Dans la suite de ses précédents travaux, le groupe MVRDV propose, lui, de construire à Hengelo aux Pays-Bas un immeuble d'habitation dont chacun des 29 logements disposerait d'un jardin privatif sous forme de terrasse plantée. Ces projets qui indiquent clairement que ce qui n'est qu'exception aujourd'hui (un jardin dans les étages) va peut-être devenir la règle demain. Nouvelle utopie ? Pourquoi ne pas imaginer que, d'ici à 2015, chaque appartement sera doté d'un véritable jardin ? Utopique ? Peut-être, mais on rappellera simplement que lorsque dans les années 20, les hygiénistes prônaient la construction de salle de bains dans tous les logements, on les prenait pour des "doux rêveurs". On connaît la suite... Les bains publics ont aujourd'hui quasiment disparu, et le nombre de foyers comptant deux salles de bains ne cessent d'augmenter. Bref, l'éternelle histoire de l'individualisation des biens de consommation... et le jardin en est devenu un, à part entière. Vers des paysages hybrides A plus long terme, on peut même penser qu'apparaîtront des immeubles tentant de se fondre dans un paysage totalement végétalisé avec des jardins, des piscines et même un parcours de golf, dispersés dans les hauteurs. Après 50 ans d'urbanisme dominé par la voiture et les parkings, on se dirige donc doucement vers un nouvel imaginaire plus vert pour nos villes et nos immeubles. Qui s'en plaindra ?

      what's next ? et bien des jardins partout, prendre en compte que la nature peut être totalement intégrée à l'architecture aussi .

les panneaux solaire - Le 20 heures - Les journaux télévisés de France 2 - FO... - 0 views

  • Je ne sais pas si tu te rends compte mais un lingot permet de faire 4 panneaux solaires de 1m² qui produisent 4x130w et qui ont une durée de vie de 20ans. si tu n'utilises que les chutes de lingots, il faut 6 lingots pour faire 1 panneaux qui produira 130w avec une durée de vie de 20ans (pour faire un panneaux en poly silicium donc avec les chutes des lingots, il faut encore faire fondre les chutes 1400°C pendant quelques heures). Imagine maintenant l'énergie qu'il faut pour faire 4 panneaux solaire (9x24heures à 1200°C), l'énergie qu'il faut est beaucoup plus importante que ce que 4 panneaux de 130w pendant 20ans peuvent produire (et là je parle que de l'énergie). En gros un panneau solaire de 130w ne rembourse pas l'énergie qu'il a eu besoin pour être fabriqué  c'est bien le problème des média qui ne parlent que des bonnes choses de ces panneaux et qui arrive à faire croire à des personnes comme toi que c'est écologique.  
  • la plupart des panneaux solaires en silicium proviennent des déchets de l'industrie microélectronique
  • fabrique les panneaux solaires, les lampes à DEL, les processeurs,.... je vais parler du monde du silicium. La base de ces panneaux solaire est donc le cristal silicium pur, pour obtenir ce silicium on met du sable (SiO2) dans un creusé et on le fait fondre à 1400°C. Une fois le silicium  fondu et les molécules d'oxygène évacué, on plonge un germe de cristal de silicium dans le creusé que l'on tire tout doucement (1mm/15min) afin d'obtenir un cristal du silicium.   Il faut environs 24 heures pour obtenir un lingot de silicium et pendant ce temps le creusé doit resté à 1400°C. S’en suit une purification du lingot, on recuit le lingot 5 à 6 fois à 1000°C pendant à chaque fois 24 heures cela fait beaucoup beaucoup d'énergie et donc beaucoup beaucoup de CO2.   Une fois le lingot pur obtenu, il faut le découper et le polir (là on utilise beaucoup d'eau il ne faut pas que le silicium chauffe). S’en suit alors la réalisation du système, là il s’agit d'une répétition de dépôt de résine toxique, cuisson, attaque chimique (acide fluoridrique), dépôt chimique (silane SiH4 et Tétrafluorosilane SiF4 qui produit des gaz fluoré très toxique avec une duré de vie de 150ans) généralement l'opération est répété 40 fois environ. Après les systèmes obtenu il faut les découpés, mettre dans des boitiers,...  Bien sur, je ne parle pas du transport car la plupart des systèmes sont fabriqué en Asie, il y a aussi des à côté comme les salles blanches,.... les ordinateur qui tourne 24 heures sur 24 7jours /7.  Il faut 1 lingot pour fait 4 panneaux de 1 m²
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • produire 1m² de panneaux solaire engendre plus de CO2 que se qu’il permet d’évité de rejeter et donc il n’a pas d’intérêt dans la lute contre le changement climatique. Par contre c’est une bonne alternative pour la fin du pétrole (si on n’a pas peur de la pollution)
  • la fabrication d'un panneau produit plus de CO2 que se qu'il évite de rejeter le temps de sa durée de vie
  •  
    une vérité sur les panneaux solaires ... à suivre de près à moins que les panneaux photovoltaïques soient condamnés et obsolètes dès ce jour ...

    in fr, et si le photovoltaïque était deja pourri ?

Putting Back the Art Into Architecture - 0 views

  •  
    A line between art and architecture has truly never been formed. Throughout history the two different disciplines have interlinked, with the latter, for the most part, strongly reflecting, and often relying upon the former. However, functionality, building codes, economic shortages and a number of different factors can often get in the way of artistic freedom in the modern industry. In fact, many critics have argued about the displeasing aesthetics that the rise in green building is having on this industry. While that may be debatable, the relevance of art to architecture has not been forgotten. In fact, one new project has used the strategic inclusion of artistic modes throughout in order to reflect the zeitgeist of an era.

London Architecture Competition Completes Room with a View - 0 views

  •  
    One of London's more whimsical architecture competitions has been completed once and for all, and the much speculated 'a room for London' design concept now stands. The competition, run by Living Architecture, boasted a much lusted after brief that offered the winning design team the chance to build a room on top of the Queen Elizabeth Hall, to act as a temporary accommodation space throughout the 2012 Olympic Games. The incredible competition, which ran throughout 2011, picked the finalist collaboration team of architectural firm David Kohn architects and Fiona Banner with their quirky and imaginative design scheme which has seen the completion of a boat-shaped living space overlooking some of the most famous London sights. The design is a reflection of the city's strong literary roots, taking its riverboat form from Joseph Conrad's  'Heart of Darkness'.

Demolition for Beloved Melbourne Architecture - 0 views

  •  
    Arguably one of Melbourne's most controversial construction projects has been given final approval, leaving a trail of both dismayed and jubilant responses. The major architectural redevelopment project at the focus of this almost five year long drama is the Windsor Hotel, and its semi-demolition by the Halim Group in early 2013.  The project has been marked as one of Victoria's most prominent in the latest state analysis, and comes with a sizeable price tag. The $250 million redevelopment will see the refurbishment of the interiors of the building, which was built in 1883. The interior restoration will maximise the amount of rooms available, increasing the capacity from 180 to 300 rooms. The ballroom and other rooms will also be upgraded and redeveloped, with Heritage Victoria approving everything.

Out of Luck for Chinese Architecture - 0 views

  •  
    Architecture in China can so often be polarising. In fact, the entire industry seems to have that affect on the world. There are those who applaud the Chinese for their extensive and rapid construction work, which includes the world's fastest apartment construction, the creation of entire cities in just five years and of course the developments in Shenzhen, one of the world's fastest growing cities. And then there are others who critique the country for having a 'fake' and 'blood soaked' GDP due to high levels of what some have labeled 'dangerous and unnecessary' industry work. Well, the design debate has been sparked yet again with the unveiling of China's latest industry venture.

Critics Hit Melbourne CBD Expansion - 0 views

  •  
    The announcement that Melbourne is set to receive one of its largest redevelopments on record has set the tongues of both the nation, and the globe, wagging. Finding even further international acclaim last year when it was deemed the World's Most Liveable City, Melbourne has seen a massive population surge, topping 85,000 new residents a year, causing both industry and government leaders to put together in a scheme which aims to perform the dual function of expanding and refurbishing the central Melbourne area. Much like Sydney's Barangaroo project, this latest CBD expansion is too large and high-impact to go unnoticed, for both positive and negative reasons.
