In Detail: Interior Surfaces and Materials: Aesthetics, Technology, Implementation (In Detail (englisch))
In Detail: Interior Surfaces and Materials: Aesthetics, Technology, Implementation (In Detail (englisch))

Architecture is defined by its materials and surfaces. Not infrequently, it is their look and feel that determine whether a project succeeds or fails. For this reason, it is crucially important that planners choose the right materials and use them correctly, a task that is especially challenging today, when they are confronted with an almost dizzying variety of design possibilities and almost unlimited industrial production techniques.

In Detail: Materials for Interiors provides detailed and specific information on the use of appropriate materials in interior design. The book leads off with an overview of the range of available products for interior design, including large-format photographs of each material and interiors that use them. This is followed by detailed discussions of relevant aspects and production methods of the individual material groups, including selected examples. The processing of the materials is illustrated by production photographs from the construction site and numerous detail drawings. In the accompanying texts, expert planners who specialize in the various materials share their practical knowledge of how to use them. The technical articles and example projects focus on the surface of the material and how it is produced or comes to be and contain corresponding decision support for planners. Additional technical information on the materials used and a list of manufacturer and vendor addresses round out the volume.

Word on the Street: Great Landing for Turbulent Week

   Posted By:Stan YeeAfter introducing guest trader Zach Karabell, aka “The Academic,” the gang immediately dives into the main lesson learned after stocks soar to end the week (the highest close since June). The dollar also “exploded,” with its biggest jump in 8 years against the euro. “Currencies typically do not move like that,” says Dylan of the USD’s 3.3% gain this week. The S&P 500 also had its best week since April, due in part to the commodities pullback — it ended the day up 2.4%.    Read More Topics:Closing Bell | NYSE | Information Technology | Gold & Precious Metals | euro | Currencies | U.S. Dollar | Commodities | Credit | Subprime Lending | Housing | Earnings | Wall Street | Stock Market | Banking | Energy | Technology | Stock PicksSectors:Construction and Materials | Technology | Banks | Financial Services | Retail | Oil and GasCompanies:Oracle Corporation | EMC Corp | Apple Inc | McDonalds Corp | Freeport-Mcmoran Copper & Gold Inc | Intel Corp | JC Penney Company Inc | Abercrombie & Fitch Company | American International Group Inc | Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. | Microsoft Corp | Cisco Systems IncMEDIA:PHOTO |   VIDEOPermalink

GM’s Breakthrough in Smart Materials

I first came across what they call “smart materials” back in the early 1980s.

Turns out F1 cars would vibrate the wires right off the plugs. So Raychem came up with a kind of “smart” rubber that made it practically impossible for the wires to vibrate off.
