High-Tech Architektur - Innovatives Konstruktionserbe erhalten Die High-Tech Architektur der 1970er–1990er Jahre zeichnet sich durch den Einsatz und die Zurschaustellung fortschrittlicher Technologien aus. Das Erscheinungsbild der Gebäude ist geprägt von innovativen Fassaden, farblich betonten Tragkonstruktionen und expressiv zur Schau gestellten Haustechniksystemen. Bedauerlicherweise führt das rasche Veraltern technischer Innovationen jedoch häufig zum vollständigen Ersatz der die Architektur wesentlich bestimmenden Systeme. Eine internationale Tagung an der ETH Zürich in Zusammenarbeit mit der Bauhaus-Universität Weimar ist 2023 der Frage nach einem adäquaten Umgang mit dem Konstruktionserbe technologisch innovativer Architektur nachgegangen. Dieses Buch fasst deren Ergebnisse zusammen und bietet einen Überblick über den aktuellen Stand der Forschung. Aktueller Stand der Wissenschaft zu High-Tech Architektur und Denkmalschutz Überblick über Chancen und Herausforderungen von High-Tech-Konstruktionen Neue Erkenntnisse zum Thema Bauen im Bestand Auch als Set mit dem Kongressband Denkmal Postmoderne 978-3-0356-2783-1 erhältlich

All three cities thus emerged w...
