Materials, Labor, and Apprehension: Building for the Threat of Fire across the Nineteenth-Century British AtlanticRowen, Jonah January 2020 (has links)
With its destabilizing shifts away from mercantilism toward liberal economics, early nineteenth-century Britain generated an increasingly powerful class of technocrats, including architects and builders, in design and construction. This burgeoning professional group involved in architecture, planning, and building directed processes, products, and technologies of construction toward maintaining societal order. In doing so, they cemented their social hierarchical status. Following abolition of the slave trade in 1807 and emancipation from 1833-1838, architects and builders had to adapt their techniques of communication and labor management, and adjust their building practices to material and technological innovations. In contrast to heroic narratives of industrial progress and optimism that conventionally dominated histories of modern architecture, figures of apprehension, anxiety, and anticipation more appropriately encapsulate the consequential events of this period. Through empirical analyses of small-scale techniques of drawing and building, this dissertation renders the general transition from rigid, mercantilist arrangements aligned with economies of enslavement toward ideologies of free trade, increasingly widespread wage labor regimes, and liberalism more broadly, into legible, tangible forms. Using as heuristics architectural technologies for preempting, mitigating, and suppressing fires—planning, constructional assemblies, mechanisms, materials, regulations, financing, and legislation—I demonstrate that preventing undesirable occurrences governed a heterogeneous array of activities. These ranged from English architects' professionalization initiatives, to plans for evacuating people from and extinguishing fires in theaters, to labor management in West Indian military outposts, to fire insurance offices that spread their risk profiles by indemnifying Caribbean sugar plantations beginning in the late eighteenth century. Thus capital and uncertainty went hand in hand as elements in conveying wealth, as architects and others involved in building at once made risk both fungible and material.

Being and architecture: an historical studyDoherty, James Michael 10 June 2012 (has links)
The establishment of a comprehensive world-view enables a person to orient himself both physically and metaphysically within his context. Since, the time of Plato, the development of these world-views has been increasingly determined by the physical sciences and their accompanying modes of thought. What have some of the major tenents of these world-views been and how have they been developed? How have they influenced the concept of being and how is that concept of being expressed in Architecture? / Master of Architecture

Instances of culture manifested in the built formOlshesky, Janice Mary January 1986 (has links)
This thesis looks at select aspects of culture in the architecture of a Gothic city, Prague, Czechoslovakia, a Renaissance villa, the Rotonda and a Baroque church, San Andrea del Quirinale. It also looks at the number of ways man is represented in the architecture of the Church and Piazza of San Pietro in Rome through scale, proportion and geometry.
Thirdly, it shows the development of my own buildings and objects, inspired by my study of the past. / Master of Architecture
