The article considers the architectural features of the Center for Rehabilitation of Servicemen, as well as how to achieve barrier-free spaces in them. The article highlights the universal design of rehabilitation centers that meets the needs of people with disabilities. Implementing spaces as a "barrier-free" architecture at the level of engineering equipment, the architect must take into account the psychology of perception of space on the basis of interdisciplinary research; The design of rehabilitation spaces "plays" with different textures, using different materials, "plays" with space, generating a figurative and semantic series of its perception, which inspires healing, hope; The diversity and structure of the architectural environment of rehabilitation spaces allows people with disabilities to learn about the world through their various analyzers; General universal design and individual design are closely related; Creating a universal design can expand the ability of people of different abilities to acquire new knowledge about the world around them, using all possible feelings and skills; It is necessary to go beyond traditional ideas, methodologically reveal the architectural relationship between man and the world in the system "nature-man-environment", and not just be limited by standards. The architectural and design features of the Center for Rehabilitation of Servicemen are considered, as well as the mechanisms of achieving such spaces in them, which correspond to the barrier-free architecture and contribute to the rehabilitation technologies. Highlights the universal design of rehabilitation centers, which meets the modern needs of both rehabilitation technologies and, of course, people with disabilities. This article undoubtedly has scientific value, problem issues are revealed, the purpose of scientific research is defined. The article responds to the demand for interdisciplinary research: the issues of architectural formation of rehabilitation centers that meet interdisciplinary approaches to military rehabilitation, formation of such spaces and planning and functional structure that meet the needs of society and enhance the effect of rehabilitation are relevant. It is possible to trace the definition of the rehabilitation center as a system: - design of the rehabilitation center, medical complex, treatment process. Based on the methods of analysis and modeling, the author reveals the implementation of rehabilitation spaces at the level of engineering equipment, as well as emphasizes the psychology of perception of the environment by the followers of rehabilitation as a socio-psychological phenomenon. The diversity and structure of the architectural environment of rehabilitation spaces allows people with disabilities to learn about the world through their various analyzers; reveals a universal design on the way to rehabilitation, which expands the ability of people of different abilities to acquire new knowledge about the world around them, to use all possible feelings and skills.

<p><strong><em>Abstract:</em></strong><em> Psychiatric disorder sufferers in Indonesia is increasing every year. This also happens in the Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta which is the province with the largest number of psychiatric sufferers in Indonesia. The phenomenon of the increasing psychiatric sufferers happen due to the lack of mental health services and facilities so that many sufferers of psychiatric disorders that have not been handled properly. The problem that arise in the design of Psychiatric Disorder and Schizophrenia Rehabilitation Center is how to create the design of rehabilitation center that accomodates the activities and needs of sufferers both physically and mentally based on behavior that indicated the sufferers. The goal is to get the container activities and needs that play a role in the healing of sufferers psychologically, socially, and spiritually with Behaviorism Architecture as the design concept. The methods used in the design of Psychiatric Disorder and Schizophrenia Rehabilitation Center is Behaviorism Concept. This concept was applied in architectural elements focused on three aspects, namely, privacy, comfort, and security. The application of the Behaviorism concept aims to meet the appropriate design in accordance with the surferrers’ behavior wihich is realized through optimization of potential site and the zonning concept. The basic form of the building is a square shape in combination with pyramid roof and sloping roof to get a homey impression. Likewise, the look of the building is made simple, but it capable to display the principles of Behaviorism Architecture.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><strong><em>Kata kunci: </em></strong><em>Behavior</em><em> Architecture</em><em>, Psychiatric Disorders, Rehabilitation Cente</em><em>r, Schizophrenia</em><em></em></p>

Full textAbstract:
The Fener-Balat districts, located in the Historical Peninsula, are among the most prominent historical and cultural sites in Istanbul. The rapid growth of the city since the 1950s, mostly due to rural migration, has affected the quality of life in various sections of the city including Fener and Balat, leaving them almost completely derelict. The Rehabilitation of Fener- Balat Districts Programme is a joint program of the European Union and the Fatih Municipality (sub-municipality of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality). It was carried out during the period between January 2003 and June 2007. Regeneration, revitalization and rehabilitation of historical urban centers, which have become degraded and dilapidated due to sub-urbanization has been successful in most cases. The gentrification process has also paralleled the resulting socio-economic revitalization and regeneration process. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine and investigate the rehabilitation process and its results in these districts, with special emphasis on the gentrification that occurred as a result of this process. In order to explore how the increase in housing prices in the historical residential Fener and Balat districts after the rehabilitation program affected the social structure and how this process resulted in undesired gentrification, a survey design was conducted and social and economic aspects in Fener-Balat has been analyzed and explored in depth with respect to the individual, immediate surroundings and the urban social structure. The resulting gentrification phase is more important than the preceding phases of revitalization and renovation, because it influences the housing market the most.

The main barriers to the exclusion of people with disabilities from society are architectural, urban and social barriers of all kinds. Adapting areas and buildings to the needs of people with disabilities is one way of combating social exclusion and an important therapeutic element. In this paper the problem of social exclusion of people with disabilities due to architectural and psychological barriers (social prejudices) has been addressed. The Rehabilitation and Recreation Centre in Okuninka served as an example of a place fully adapted to the needs of the disabled, called barrier-free architecture.

ABSTRAK HIV dan AIDS (Acquire Immune Deficiency Syndrome) merupakan masalah global. Kurangnya pengetahuan akan cara penularan virus HIV dan pengobatan terhadap ODHA di Indonesia, membuat semakin meningkatnya kasus HIV dan AIDS setiap tahunnya dan muncul berbagai stigma negatif dari masyarakat terhadap ODHA. Dengan adanya stigma negatif dari masyarakat lain terhadap penyakitnya membuat ODHA memiliki rasa takut, tidak percaya diri, marah, malu dan kecewa pada dirinya sendiri. Metode perancangan yang digunakan adalah metode pendekatan arsitektur perilaku. Beberapa data awal yang telah ditemukan pada survei awal, dikembangkan dalam survei lanjutan. Data-data tersebut kemudian diperdalam dan dikembangkan melalui serangkaian survei yang dilakukan berulang kali. Proses analisis merupakan bagian yang menyatu dengan proses observasi data. Dari proses ini kemudian dibangun konstruksi teori dari lapangan. Untuk memenuhi semua kebutuhan dalam proses rehabilitasi diperlukan penataan ruang yang baik agar hubungan antar ruang dapat mendukung semua kegiatan yang terjadi dalam proses tersebut. Selain itu juga, untuk menciptakan suasana rehabilitasi maka diperlukan lingkungan yang baik dalam perancangan panti rehabilitasi agar pasien dapat berinteraksi dengan sesama pasien dengan baik. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah, merancang sebuah bangunan panti rehabilitasi untuk orang dengan HIV/AIDS agar mampu mengembalikan fungsi sosial ODHA di dalam masyarakat dengan pendekatan arsitektur perilaku.Kata Kunci : Arsitektur Perilaku, HIV dan AIDS, Panti Rehabilitasi ABSTRACTHIV and AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) are global issues. A limited knowledge of HIV transmission and treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Indonesia has increased the number of HIV/AIDS cases annually and made the society stigmatize people with HIV/AIDS. Such stigma has made people with HIV/AIDS feel frightened, unconfident, ashamed, and disappointed with themselves. The designing method used in this thesis was the behavioral architecture. Some preliminary data from an initial survey was developed in the follow-up survey. Such data was then further studied and developed through a series of repeated surveys. The analysis process became an integral part of the data observation process. Thereafter, a theory was constructed based on the field data processing. To fulfill all the needs of rehabilitation process, a well-designed spatial planning is required, so the relationship between spaces can support all the activities in the process. In addition, to support the atmosphere of rehabilitation, a good environment is required in designing a rehabilitation center to allow patients to interact well with each other. To conclude, a rehabilitation center for people with HIV/AIDS was designed to restore the social function of people with HIV/AIDS in society based on behavioral architecture.

Social aspects of the formation of architectural complexes in metropolian Kharkov have not yet been analyzed in homeland architectural theory. The study into "Kharkov constructivism", due to unfortunate historical ocurrence, is still in fact at the initial stage. Thesises of Kharkov authors illuminate this phenomenon in general or analyze some of the most significant sights. Approaches to the study of social aspects of architecture and urban development went through several stages. Architectural theory of the late 1940s- the beginning of 1950s was sharply critical of the architectural and urban planning experiments in the 1920s. The XXth century Soviet history of architecture in the 1960s and 1970s was marked by ideological rehabilitation of constructivism, including social experiments of the 1920s - early 1930s. A turn from apologetics of the 1960s - 1980s to critical analysis of the architecture and urban development of the avant-garde was indicated at the beginning of 2000s by the studies considering Soviet architectural and urban planning practice in the context of public behavior management as a tool for structuring general population to achieve political goals. Foreign studies into the Soviet avant-garde sprang up in the 1970s - early 1980s affected by Western sociology where architecture began to be viewed as a tool for managing social processes and new types of structures and models of urban planning organization- as “a transition from social to material”. Many studies highlighted the influence of Soviet architectural and urban planning programs of the 1920s and 1930s on the system and structure of public consciousness. There was established that large-scale housing, cultural and domestic construction was carried out as part of the capital's administrative and government center creation programs and the formation of an industrial complex. There were identified four conceptual approaches for housing construction, they were consistently implemented during the realization of the two above-mentioned programs: garden city, communal house, housing complex and social city. In these programs, the concepts of "garden city" and "communal houses" were practically tested and reasonably rejected, and the most productive models were residential complexes and social city. Keywords: social construction, architectural and urban concepts, soviet human, metropolian Kharkov.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the article is to reveal the tendency to use images of the Constantinople capital's architecture in the projects of sacred buildings in Galicia at the beginning of the XXI century. Under the hieratopy of New Rome means the special status of Constantinople - the sacred center of the World Christian (Roman) State. After the fall of Constantinople, the image of New Rome became available for reproduction in previously remote corners of the Byzantine world, including in the construction of the identities of certain modern nations formed in the nineteenth century. It is underlined that the hieratopy of New Rome became an important part of Ukrainian identity searching within the sacred architecture of Galicia. It is determined that in varying degrees, it was characteristic of the search for a national manifestation both in the period of the turn of the XIX - XX centuries, and of the Independence period in the turn of the XX - XXI centuries. It is determined that for this last period, an important factor was the significant improvement of relations between the Western (Latin) and Eastern (Orthodox) churches, the rehabilitation of Eastern traditions in Roman Catholic discourse. Also the article shows examples of a number of buildings, which testify to different variants of architecture work of sacred buildings in Galicia (West Ukraine) with images of hieratopia of New Rome. Furthermore is given a ways in which it fits into the existing stereotypes of architectural manifestation of Ukrainian national identity and symbolism, as well as manifestations of Ukrainian national identity.

Thesis (M. Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1991.Includes bibliographical references (p. 112-114).
The primary intention of this thesis is to explore the tectonic qualities of light throughCthe design of a building. In addition to addressing some of the more general questions concerning light raised in the design process, the design attempts to demonstrate how light can define a multiplicity of places and generate the physical architectural order of a building. The investigation of light is conducted through studies with the various physical and spatial components of the building. The primary goal of these explorations with light is to enrich a personal understanding of light in architectural terms for the purpose of design. In addition, the program of a drug rehabilitation center examines how the intangible qualities of light in a building can serve to inspire and contribute to the process of healing physically as well as emotionally. The significance of the program ensures that the studies with light are not just generic and formal, but recognizes that any formal understanding of light must be applied to broader ends in order for it to be meaningful. The thesis itself is organized in five chapters: -- Chapter One introduces the basic questions regarding light which prompted this design investigation. It specifies the intention and the scope of this thesis and discusses the method of the investigation. -- Chapter Two describes the context of the design. It reveals why an urban rehabilitation center was chosen for the design and points out the role of the program in the explorations with light. There is also a description of the site and a discussion of some of the most important advocacies which operated throughout the design process. -- Chapter Three presents the design through plans, sections, and vignettes of the building as a "Journey of Light." -- Chapter Four is a collection of some of the studies conducted during the design process. These studies are grouped under two sections. The first group includes the more analytically oriented studies which are based on observations connected to the city, the site and the room. The second section consists of the qualitative explorations with light and a list of the questions regarding light which these studies attempt to address. The latter group of studies are organized in terms of the volume, wall and frame of the building. -- Chapter Five summarizes the the most important lessons gained from this study and offers an assessment of the value of this investigation.

Full textAbstract:
With the development of the concept of disability and consequently rehabilitation concept, today’
s achievements of rehabilitation centers are perceived different from the traditional ones. Conventional approach of rehabilitation was aiming at improving functional deficiencies of people with disabilities with the help of medical treatment. Within the last two decades depending upon the increasing in the awareness of idea of inclusivity in society there has been developed a shift from traditional medical based approach to more social based ones where rehabilitation has been perceived as a process to enhance the &

rather than a process of a medical curation of people with diverse disabilities. The new social-based rehabilitation approach refers community based rehabilitation strategy that aims to integrate various sectors of social life for the achievement of an effective rehabilitation while promoting inclusion of people with less or severe disabilities in social life. It is stated in this thesis that the architectural program of a community-based rehabilitation centers can be elaborated with the parameters of Universal Design (UD) which not only responds to the shift in community-based rehabilitation approach while promoting inclusion in the society, but also has a potential to advance spacial formative characteristics of related centers in a more descriptive way. The ideas of equity and participation are the significant parameters of UD that are referred in the thesis in order to elaborate the supportive social services of an architectural program and to investigate spatial characteristics of community-based rehabilitation centers.

Os centros urbanos consolidados das metrópoles, em geral, abrigam edificações carregadas de símbolos e significados que configuram a memória coletiva e a identidade dos cidadãos, além de expressarem organizações sociais, econômicas, políticas e culturais. Estes centros urbanos abrigam uma crescente concentração de comércios, serviços e finanças, infraestrutura consolidada e garantia de acesso ao transporte coletivo, em detrimento da função residencial e/ou precariedade habitacional, além de contar com a presença de inúmeros imóveis vazios e/ou subutilizados, os quais têm sido alvo de programas e projetos de intervenção pública nas últimas décadas. O método dialógico tem levado a compreensão e avaliação da arquitetura numa relação cronotópica do texto (objeto de estudo) com seu contexto, nas dimensões tempo-espaço ricoeuriana e articuladas com as três dimensões dialógicas da vida humana (estética, ética e ciência). A Prefeitura de São Paulo (Brasil), nas gestões 2001 a 2004 e 2005 a 2008, através do Programa de Arrendamento Residencial (PAR) reabilitou alguns edifícios na ambiência do centro histórico para habitação de interesse social (HIS) e, dentre esses, está o Edifício Maria Paula. Em Roma (Itália), a Prefeitura, desde 2000, através do Programmi di Recupero Urbano (PRU) requalificou áreas degradadas e reabilitou edifícios para habitação social e, dentre esses, está o Conjunto Residencial San Basilio. Diante dos fatos aludidos, esta pesquisa tem como objetivo avaliar os programas e projetos públicos de habitação social em centros urbanos consolidados: Programa de Arrendamento Residencial em São Paulo, Brasil e o Programmi di Recupero Urbano em Roma, Itália, através dos estudos de caso: Edifício Maria Paula e Conjunto Residencial San Basilio, respectivamente. Metodologia: compreende cinco etapas. A primeira, a abordagem teórica sobre a ambiência do centro histórico e o centro urbano consolidado, arquitetura, habitação, texto, contexto e dialogia. A segunda, o método arquitetura dialógica, com base na fundamentação teórica e filosófica de Bakhtin, Ricoeur e Muntañola, que se inicia pela compreensão do texto arquitetônico, a construção original (configuração), a degradação física do edifício, o projeto de reabilitação (reprefiguração), a construção reabilitada (reconfiguração) e o uso social da habitação (re-refiguração). A terceira, o Programmi di Recupero Urbano (PRU): Conjunto Residencial San Basilio, em Roma - Itália. A quarta, o Programa de Arrendamento Residencial (PAR): Edifício Maria Paula, em São Paulo - Brasil. A quinta, a análise comparativa do PAR: Edifício Maria Paula, em São Paulo e o PRU: Conjunto Residencial San Basilio, em Roma. Resultados: contribuir com estudos sobre habitação social em centros urbanos consolidados; contribuir com estudos sobre arquitetura dialógica e subsidiar, através deste estudo, programas e projetos públicos de habitação social no Brasil.
The consolidated urban centers of the metropolis areas, in general, house loaded buildings symbols and meanings that shape the collective memory and identity of citizens, in addition to express social, economic, political and cultural organizations. These urban centers are home to a growing concentration of trade, services and finance, consolidated infrastructure and ensuring access to public transport, to the detriment of the residential function and / or housing precariousness, in addition to the presence of numerous voids and / or underutilized properties, which have been the target of programs and public intervention projects in recent decades. The dialogical method has led to the understanding and evaluation of architecture in a chronotopic relation text (object of study) with its context, the Ricoeur’s dimensions space-time and articulated with the three dialogical dimensions of human life (esthetics, ethics and science). The City of São Paulo (Brazil), on the managements of 2001-2004 and 2005-2008, through the Residential Leasing Program (PAR), rehabilitated some buildings in the ambience of the historic center for social housing (HIS) and, among these, is Maria Paula building. Rome (Italy), the City since 2000 through Programmi di Recupero Urbano (PRU) reclassified degraded areas and rehabilitated buildings for social housing and, among these, is the Residential San Basilio. Faced with the facts alluded, this research aims to evaluate the programs and public projects of social housing in urban consolidated centers: Residential Leasing Program in São Paulo, Brazil and Programmi di Recupero Urbano in Rome, Italy, through the case studies: Maria Paula building and Residential San Basilio, respectively. Methodology: comprises five stages. The first, theoretical approach to the ambience of the historic center and the consolidated urban center, architecture, housing, text, context and dialogy. The second, the dialogic architecture method, based on philosophical and theoretical background of Bakhtin, Ricoeur and Muntañola which starts by understanding the architectural text, the original construction (setting), the physical deterioration of the building, the rehabilitation project (reprefiguration), the rehabilitated building (reconfiguration) and the social use of the dwelling (re-refiguration). The third, the Programmi di Recupero Urbano (PRU): The building San Basilio in Rome - Italy. The fourth, the Residential Leasing Program (PAR): Building Maria Paula in São Paulo - Brazil. The fifth, comparative analysis of the PAR: Building Maria Paula in São Paulo and the PRU: Building San Basilio, in Rome. Results: contribute to studies on social housing in consolidated urban centers; contribute to studies on dialogic architecture and subsidize, through this study, public programs and projects of social housing in Brazil.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis puts forward the problematic situation in the very urban center of Ankara with an
analytical method to investigate the roots of several problems. Building its argument on historical
facts, in depth observations, and political, social, and urban analysis, it proposes a rational basis
for the rehabilitation of 19 Mayis Sports District, mainly focusing on the means of elevating the
physical quality through the capacity of social inclusion concerning the sports activity settings
and places in the region. All in all, the basic argument stands on the belief that the spatial basis of
the 19 Mayis Sports District and the neighboring urban tissue around it might be re-defined and
rehabilitated, if only its historical, political, ideological, and socio-cultural bases are redefined.
Therefore, the study searches for rehabilitation of the 19 Mayis Sports District in Ulus, Ankara,
by adapting and integrating sports with other cultural collective practices, and defining it as an
alternative life-style for citizens. Because the district lays on the second division of Atatürk Culture Center Region, a sports culture and its policy should be defined and designed for to amend that division of the region by preparing a principal master plan for the region and for the division.

Se basa en una arquitectura terapéutica con la que se diseña un establecimiento de salud generando espacios amplios y abiertos hacia jardines terapéuticos, integrando los espacios naturales y recreativos con las áreas de tratamiento.
Se busca resolver la problemática de nuestra ciudad en la cual tenemos un déficit de centros de salud especializados en la rehabilitación pediátrica. El proyecto se ubica estratégicamente en el distrito de Los Olivos por la demanda en este sector de la población, y la falta de centros de salud de la zona. La población a servir son menores de 18 años con ciertas limitaciones, para que puedan desarrollarse y reintegrarse en la sociedad de manera adecuada.The project consists of the design of a Pediatric Rehabilitation Center. It is based on a therapeutic architecture that is used in designing a healthcare building by creating wide and open spaces to the gardens thus contributing to the user’s rehabilitation. It is intended to integrate the therapeutic gardens and natural areas of the project alongside the treatment areas with the objective to provide care for children and young people from an early age in order for them to develop and reintegrate themselves into society adequately. The project's location is in Los Olivos's district in the northern part of Lima due to the high demand of users and the lack of infrastructure in the area to help them.

Full textAbstract:
In view of its inevitable implications at an individual and collective level, in all historic periods hospital building has represented the most advanced level of elaboration of architectural models aimed at the optimal synthesis of form, function and technique. Consequently, the typological and morphological reading of the Ospedale degli Infermi of Faenza, in the wake of a campaign of architectural surveys and archive research, represents an opportunity for verifying the relationship between technical culture and design and building practice through which it is possible to identify the typological and semantic values of the architecture. Designed and constructed by the master builders Raffaele and Giovanbattista Campidori in the middle of the eighteenth century, the various phases in the transformation of the Hospital are analysed down to our own times, positing tools and methods of investigation designed to optimise operations for the rehabilitation and conservation of the most ancient part of the building.

Full textAbstract:
The monograph is devoted to the literary and scientific heritage of the famous French writer, historian, philosopher, thinker, diplomat and statesman F. R. de Chateaubriand, whose scientific works were practically unknown to the Russian reader for many decades. Being the founder of French romanticism and laying the main elements of this direction of culture, F. R. de Chateaubriand nevertheless causes numerous disputes and questions. The monograph shows the process of formation of the writer's romantic worldview on the example of his early works, which still retain traces of the literature of the XVIII century and already carry new romantic trends of the XIX century. The author also presents the facts of the writer's biography and analyzes a number of his historical works devoted to medieval France. From the Renaissance until the end of the XVIII century, one of the elements of medieval architecture and Christian religion-Gothic architecture — was perceived as something negative, barbaric, rude, completely inconsistent with the aesthetics of the XVI — XVIII centuries. F. R. de Chateaubriand was one of the first researchers who discovered the beauty of Gothic churches and the color of national history to the mass reader at the turn of the XVIII—XIX centuries. The rehabilitation of Gothic architecture was accomplished by F. R. de Chateaubriand in his Treatise "the genius of Christianity". The famous "forest theory" of the origin of Gothic helped to "remove" negative assessments of the middle Ages and influenced the formation and development of romanticism both in France and in other European countries. It was F. R. de Chateaubriand's idea of the relationship between medieval architecture and Christian consciousness that influenced all the subsequent development and formation of the history of medieval art. For a wide range of readers interested in the history of literature.

Full textAbstract:
Earthquakes are the most destructive natural phenomena on the earth. Unfortunately, the most historical part of the World is under seismic risk. Seismic activities result in significant damages, even collapse on the historical and monumental structures and centers. In order to evaluate and decide the vulnerability level of any building, first visual and fast nondestructive methods and preliminary evaluation are to be carried out at the beginning for preventing damages. According to this concept, an engineer or an architect can decide whether the building is safe or needs further detailed evaluation to assess its adequacy. Based on these investigations, the best rehabilitation and retrofit method can be chosen. The aim of this chapter is to produce useful framework and easy applicable assumptions to not only the practicing engineer or architect but also to an ordinary person who can broadly understand and note the absence or presence of seismic-resistant features in the building and also the possibilities of further steps like seismic retrofit or rehabilitation.

Full textAbstract:
A methodology of investigation and diagnosis on the built patrimony of historic centres in seismic areas is presented with the aim of collecting an extensive knowledge on the structural typologies and behaviour of historic masonry buildings. This investigation is also the base for the prevention and/or repair of damages caused by earthquakes. Small historic centres or residential buildings in larger centres have been considered for long time as “minor architecture”, but they are meaningful testimonies of the local cultural heritage and express the evolution of a society and of its cultural identity. The results of the investigation carried out on different Italian historic centers, allowed also a critical review of the reliability of the analytical models and of the effectiveness of the repair techniques applied in the past decades. The guidelines emerging from the research results are here presented. A “minimal” diagnostic investigation program is also suggested, in order to support the designers in their projects and to set up appropriate mathematical models to study the vulnerability of the structures.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter traces the evolution of the US government’s international disaster assistance policy, beginning at the dawn of the nineteenth century and culminating with the landmark enactment of Public Law (P.L.) 94–161, the International Development and Food Assistance Act of 1975. Avowing the United States’ readiness to provide humanitarian relief in the wake of foreign catastrophes, it empowered the president (or his appointed delegates) to furnish relief and short-term rehabilitation assistance to any country affected by “natural or manmade disasters.” With this act, US international disaster assistance was officially codified as an instrument of US foreign policy. The chapter then analyzes the state's gradually expanding role in the humanitarian sphere in light of the shifting architecture of nineteenth- and twentieth-century US grand strategy. If a grand strategy framework can help make sense of US international disaster assistance, studying the history of catastrophes and disaster relief—and the history of humanitarian aid, more broadly—also stands to say something new about US grand strategy itself.

Full textAbstract:
Timber frame construction is a characteristic of several historic city centres as well as of vernacular architecture in several countries around the world, either motivated by the availability of materials and construction traditions or by the need of reducing the seismic vulnerability of buildings, namely in south European countries, where this construction technique was adopted for seismic-resistance purposes. From past earthquakes, it has been seen that timber frame construction can be viewed as an interesting technology as it has exhibited a very reasonable behaviour when compared to other traditional construction techniques such as masonry walls. This chapter provides an overview of the main insights on the seismic performance of timber frame buildings from the evidences of past earthquakes and provides the main results of recent research focused on the in-plane cyclic behavior of timber frame walls with distinct geometrical configurations. Additionally, the main seismic performance indexes of timber frame walls, both unreinforced and retrofitted, are presented and discussed in detail.

Full textAbstract:
In this chapter a short overview of the evolution, geomorphological expression, sedimentary records, and discharge and sediment regimes of the major rivers in western Europe is presented. The rivers Elbe, Weser, Rhine, Meuse, Scheldt, Seine, Loire, Garonne, Rhône, and Danube will be separately reviewed but not necessarily in this order and not with equal attention. Emphasis is placed on the Quaternary record and most issues are exemplified by a discussion on phenomena and processes in the Rhine–Meuse delta. As almost all these rivers are strongly influenced by man’s activities, attention is also focused on river management practices, both in a historic context and at present. Finally, modern concepts and plans concerning river conservation and rehabilitation are briefly examined. The foundations of the modern drainage system in north-western Europe were laid in the Miocene when earth movements associated with Alpine orogenesis and the opening of the North Atlantic were at their height (Gibbard 1988). During the Late Tertiary–Early Quaternary the North Sea basin was dominated by an extensive fluvial system that drained the Fennoscandian and Baltic shield through the present Baltic Sea (Overeem et al. 2001; Fig. 6.2). The dimensions of this (former) drainage system were enormous; through empirical relationships based on recent fluvio-deltaic systems the drainage area is estimated to have been in the order of 1.1 × 106 km2. Cenozoic marine and fluvial sediments reach a thickness of more than 3,500 m in the North Sea basin. Quaternary sediments with a thickness of over 1,000 m imply a tenfold increase in sedimentation during this period in comparison to the Tertiary infilling. The fluvial system of Miocene to Middle Pleistocene age has been referred to as the Baltic River system (Bijlsma 1981). It is also designated as the Eridanos delta system by Overeem et al. (2001) named after the legendary Eridanos river in northern Europe mentioned in Greek records (7th century BC). In a seismo-stratigraphic study Overeem et al. (2001) have documented the large-scale basin-fill architecture in terms of external forcing by tectonics, sea-level variations, and climate. The development of this drainage system is attributed to the simultaneous Neogene uplift of the Fennoscandian Shield and the accelerated subsidence of the North Sea basin.

<p>Oaxaca State (Mexico) has great tangible and intangible wealth. Its history includes buildings dated from the Spanish crown conquest in the XVI century. Its architecture is considered a monumental wealth, in spite of the damages caused by earthquakes along its history. In this work the social - educational approach has been considered as part of the frame of work to preserve and to rehabilitate the built heritage. We present a case study in San Jeronimo Taviche. In this town, as in others, the built patrimony has been lost due to lack of valuation of this patrimony, and lack of economic resources for its conservation and maintenance. The "white house" is a building built at the beginning of the 20th century with traditional systems. It was realized the topographic and architectural survey and a social participative diagnostic. The participative methodologies allow the involved people to be a part of the diagnosis and of the proposal of solution, with which at medium period we hope to achieve the appropriation of the project. With the social and educational approach, the capacities of the people become stronger for the conservation of their patrimony and for the search of resources of financial support for its rehabilitation as a Community Development Center.</p>

Full textAbstract:
<p>Modern architectural heritage raises issues connected to its preservation or rehabilitation and require in-depth analysis and appropriate protections. Just recently, the collapse of the Polcevera Bridge in Genoa cast a shadow on the durability itself of established materials and technologies, in particular prestressed concrete. Another aspect deserving special attention in this heritage is seismic provision. The underground Pavilion V is an iconic structure designed by Morandi, conceived in 1958 as an expansion of the exhibition space hosting the industrial vehicle section of the Turin Automobile Show. The pavilion consists of a single wide space, 69 m in width and 151 m in length, and is located 8 m below ground level. The present contribution illustrates the recent experimental investigations conducted on this stunning building, with emphasis on the dynamic characterization tests. The tests were deemed necessary for the interpretation of the structural system in view of a possible reuse as part of the university campus of architecture. The interpretation of the experimental campaign stimulated a broader range discussion on the structural and seismic reliability of this type of scheme, as well as its possible seismic improvement and rehabilitation.</p>

Full textAbstract:
The ARA plan, acronym for Architecture and Rehabilitation of Alcoy, was the response to a collective desire of change and to the need for the renewal of an industrial city with a deeply rooted bourgeois and working-class base. The impulse and credibility that made possible the conception of the ARA plan came from a series of projects that consolidated seriously damaged zones of the historic center, and secondarily from the economic commitment of the Generalitat with urban projects of great disciplinary interest that, at that time, had the character of pioneers for their modern procedures of intervention on the inherited city.The common framework of Plan ARA hosted many urban proposals very different in their methodology. However the sense of their cohesion in the city was evident because behind them there was a thought of order necessary for the consolidation and modernization of the urban patrimony that future challenges would ask for. The most relevant architectural project was the renovation of the neighborhood of La Sang, which won the FAD Architecture Award in 1999, but for the citizens the evidence of a remarkable change came with the construction of the public parks. Since that moment the people perceived that an ambitious and clear idea of the city was giving shape to their daily domestic outer spaces.Unfortunately a mix of political and economical issues truncated or set aside important ongoing projects so the completion of the ARA plan was never reached. and the aspiration of becoming an strategic city was forgotten.References:Vidal Vidal, Vicente M.

Full textAbstract:
Fortified architecture between preservation and reuse strategies: the twentieth century restoration projects of Castelfranco in Finale LigureThe town of Finale Ligure, situated on the western coast of Liguria, was the site of the Del Carretto Marquisate until the sixteenth century. After that, it was under the control of the Spanish Crown (seventeenth century) and it has been an independent territory of the Republic of Genoa for a long time. The three castles were built on the top of Finale hills and they were the symbol of its independence. Gavone castle, established on the top of the historical town, has been the site of the Marquisate since the twelfth century. S. Giovanni castle was built by the Spanish in order to improve the town defensive system in the second half of the seventeenth century. Castelfranco, built by the Genoese in the fourteenth century, was rehashed many times by the Spanish and in the nineteenth century by the Savoia family. The three castles still recall these historical events and are therefore witnesses of the Finale present and past history. They are the result of the different transformations occurred over the centuries. In recent times, Castelfranco has been opened to the public and today it houses art exhibitions and cultural events. The restoration of the castle is the last step of a long-lasting rehabilitation project history that has been developed since the 1900s, when the Municipality suggested to turn it into a hotel. The article analyses the restoration projects of Castelfranco that have been carried out in the first half of the twentieth century, which had different methodologies and approaches. Though this study the article highlights the perception that the town had about the castle, identifying the changes in the balance between reuse and conservation strategies after the first Italian preservation laws.

<p>The decision to rehabilitate buildings in a sustainable way is complex, because the associated costs require different levels of assessment, given their relevance to all stakeholders in the decision- making, and are not always easily quantifiable. Following recent decisions of the European Union, it is urgent to carry on with studies to support for sustainable rehabilitation investment projects. In this context, the use of methodologies based on Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) contributes positively to support decisions. The CBA comprise methods to evaluate the net economic impact of an investment project, and can be used for a variety of interventions. The CBA is characterized by being an evaluation model that admits monetary unity as the main measure and has been predominantly used in the context of large public investments during the second half of the twentieth century.</p><p>The present paper aims to present the CBA concepts, its application to different investment projects, identifying the procedures and phases of the methodology, as well as the presentation of the main corresponding cost-benefit performance indicators. Its importance and potential will be highlighted for various stakeholders in the decision-making process, as well as examples of its application to the construction and / or rehabilitation of: i) architectural heritage; ii) school buildings; and iii) health infrastructures.

Full textAbstract:
Nablus old center stands as a typical Arab city with a relevant geographical location. Successive historical periods distinguish its history - from Canaanite to Roman, Byzantine, Islamic, Crusader or Ottoman - till nowadays. This cultural diversity has layered chronological strata on its urban fabric. Therefore, diverse historical characteristics reflected in the city’s urban morphology have undergone continued physical and functional transformations, not only gradually by time and various socio-cultural, economic or political factors, but also radically by earthquakes and war destructions. Present-day Nablus’ physical image echoes a palimpsest of urban/social identities and an asset for a very sensitive collective memory. This paper examines the formation, evolution and constitution of the old city of Nablus by a retrospective analysis that searches the morphological momentum for each phase in articulation with a reflection around its historical meaning for the city. Methodologically, this study is conducted on both urban and architectural levels, surveying street hierarchy and plot distribution. This understanding will be extremely important for an accurate perception of this tissue in order to advocate for a concerned idea of the city’s reconstruction, following recent urban annihilations. At a time when urban rehabilitation pushes plans for quick and immediate results, reading Nablus’ urban morphology can work as the lacking tool for an instructed and operative regeneration.

<p>Great architects and structural engineers such as Berg (1870-1947), Maillart (1872-1940), Freyssinet (1879- 1962), Torroja (1899 -1961), Nervi (1891-1979), Candela (1910-1997), Isler (1926-2009) and many others have designed recognized works of art in their discipline. They conceived extraordinary concrete spatial structures, that are located mostly in Europe and represent a unique legacy. It is important to raise awareness of this heritage, define the criteria for preserving it and begin the process of its renovation and rehabilitation.</p> <p>While concrete has become a 20th century emblem, much of the world’s heritage from this period is unrecognized or undervalued, and therefore it is at risk and in need of analysis and protection. Innovative technologies and solutions are needed that contribute to the successful reuse of modern concrete built heritage. Indeed, such structures are plagued by significant deterioration and most of them are in urgent need of retrofitting and/or radical refurbishment. In other words, there is a need to bring some of these buildings back to life, while respecting the spirit of their original characters, through new technologies for long-term conservation that can maintain an adequate level of structural performance. Achieving this goal would produce substantial economic impacts through activities such as restoration, maintenance, and cultural industry.</p> <p>The keynote lecture, more specifically, focuses on the condition assessment, monitoring and preservation of 20th century architectural heritage characterized by a complex spatial structural design. The service life of civil and cultural heritage concrete spatial structures is typically thought to range from 10 to 200 years, but in practice the service environment plays a pivotal role in sustained durability. Indeed, the collapse of Polcevera Viaduct in Genoa has raised strong concerns on the durability of concrete structures conceived at that time. The scientific community has once again underlined the important role played by maintenance and continuous structural health monitoring in avoiding these disastrous events. In order to demonstrate a correct approach to condition monitoring of concrete spatial buildings and bridges, some important experiences are described that were recently obtained at the Polytechnic of Turin on the structural analysis, seismic vulnerability and condition assessment for iconic 20th century heritage buildings.</p>

"The role of the plot in engendering environmental quality: from unplanned favelas to the planned subdivisions of new blocks." In 24th ISUF 2017 - City and Territory in the Globalization Age. Valencia: Universitat Politècnica València, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/isuf2017.2017.5966.
Full textAbstract:
This work discusses the importance of the site in the morphological structuring of urban centres. Studies on the implantation of the city of Belo Horizonte, located in the state of Minas Gerais Brazil, show that the occupation of the city occurred initially in the valleys. This was due to the favourable conditions of the topography, which allowed an orthogonal layout in the central area. In spite of this, since the city’s foundation, the most rugged areas have been occupied by favelas, whose layout differed from the dominant pattern. As flat areas became scarce, the hilly regions, possessing long strips of land, were also subdivided and exploited due to their substantially lower land prices. Although the favelas sprung up spontaneously and the new settlements were planned, both had similarities in the layout of the streets which were adjusted to the steep contours and the geological conditions of the terrain. At the same time, the plot defined another configuration in the subdivisions, in which the building was occupied by only a single family and, in most cases, the building was separated from the street by high walls. As a consequence, the relationship between public and private space became severely compromised. In the case of the favelas, the formal inexistence of the plot is demonstrated in the juxtaposition of the dwellings, in which each residence is constructed above another in extremely confined space. The relationship with the street also differs in these places, since the first floor often freely connects to the street, integrating the dwelling with the public space and thus contributing to the social life of the community. This is furthermore in contrast to the previously noted walled environments characterising planned areas.
