  • La aportación estructural del Crystal Palace de la Exposición Universal de Londres 1851
    'redfundamentos SL', 2014
    Co-Authors: López César Isaac
    Abstract:

    The aim of this paper is to establish a historical line from the first architectural application of structural elements made of industrial iron for roofs and multi-storey buildings to the first application of portal frame in a multi-storey building. With this in mind, the Crystal Palace built for the 1851 Great Exhibition held in London is revealed as the point of inflexion in the transition from metallic lattice typology, which is stabilized by perimeter masonry walls, to modern portal frame applied to the multi-storey building. Historical connections are detected in this transition giving value to some buildings which have remained on the side lines of the conventional architectural historiography. We can therefore expand on the traditional historical focus of the achievements of the Chicago School, highlighting and historically connecting prior events.El objetivo del presente artículo es el de establecer la línea histórica que conduce desde la aplicación arquitectónica de los primeros elementos estructurales de hierro industrializado en edificios de varias plantas y cubiertas hasta la aplicación primigenia del pórtico rígido autoportante en un edificio de varias plantas. En este recorrido, el Crystal Palace de la Exposición Universal de Londres 1851 se revela como un elemento clave que articula la transición desde la tipología de entra­mado metálico estabilizado por muros perimetrales de fábrica hasta la moderna formalización del pórtico rígido autoestable aplicado al edificio en altura. Asimismo se detectan las conexiones históricas existentes en dicho proceso, poniendo en valor edificios que han permanecido al margen de la historiografía arquitectónica convencional. Ampliamos, por tanto, el foco histórico centrado tradicionalmente en los logros de la Escuela de Chicago destacando y conectando históricamente los acontecimientos anteriores

  • Fire safety analysis of the Crystal Palace based on optimized BIM model
    2016
    Co-Authors: Semič Dejan
    Abstract:

    This master's thesis comprehensively explores fire safety in high-rise buildings. A fire safety analysis was performed on a model of the Crystal Palace skyscraper, which, at 89 meters, is the tallest building in Slovenia today (2016). A BIM model of the entire building was generated (Archicad) to be used with the software for fire (PyroSim) and evacuation analysis (Pathfinder).\ud The BIM model of the building was optimized in a way it could be directly imported into the software for fire and evacuation analysis. The fire safety analysis of the Crystal Palace was performed in line with the most recent applicable Slovenian laws, and technical guidelines\ud TSG-1-001:2010 and MHHR (Muster-Hochhaus-Richtlinie, 2008). Furthermore, a comparison of the fire study performed as a part of this thesis and an existing study that was carried out in accordance with the Swiss VKF guidelines is presented. The study data were also used to prepare a fire safety statement for the concerned building. In the scope of the fire analysis,three key (reference) floors were analyzed using PyroSim software. All fire systems which are\ud located in the studied fire compartments (floors) were taken into account in the numerical model, i.e. the automatic fire detection and fire alarm system, fire sprinkler system, mechanical smoke extraction system and natural smoke and heat extraction system. The results of the\ud spread of smoke over the floor were taken into account in the evacuation analysis in Pathfinder which was used to analyze the speed of evacuation from the building. Furthermore, the importance of the fireman’s elevator is also presented (analysed) in the numerical studies. The\ud last part of the thesis is dedicated to the analysis of the security lighting on the reference floor which was performed in DIALux. In order to present the key results of the analyses, a video animation was created in Lumion

  • Fire safety analysis of the Crystal Palace based on optimized BIM model
    D. Semič, 2016
    Co-Authors: Semič Dejan
    Abstract:

    Magistrsko delo na celovit način obravnava požarno varnost v visokih stavbah. Analiza požarne varnosti je narejena na primeru stolpnice Kristalna palača, ki je danes z 89 metri najvišja stavba v Sloveniji (2016). Izdelan je model BIM (Archicad), uporabljen v programu za požarno (PyroSim) in evakuacijsko analizo (Pathfinder). Pri tem je model BIM optimiziran do te mere, da je lahko neposredno uporaben v programih za požarno in evakuacijsko analizo. Študija požarne varnosti Kristalne palače je izdelana na podlagi zadnje veljavne slovenske zakonodaje in tehnične smernice TSG-1-001:2010 ter smernice za visoke stavbe MHHR (Muster-Hochhaus-Richtlinie, 2008). Prikazana je primerjava v tem delu izdelane študije z obstoječo študijo, ki je bila narejena na podlagi švicarske smernice VKF. Na podlagi študije je izdelan tudi izkaz požarne varnosti za obravnavano stavbo. Pri požarni analizi so v računalniškem programu PyroSim analizirane tri ključne (referenčne) etaže. Pri tem so v modelu vključeni in analizirani vsi požarni sistemi, ki se nahajajo v analiziranih požarnih sektorjih (etažah), in sicer: sistem avtomatskega odkrivanja in javljanja požara, sprinklerski sistem, mehanski odvod dima in toplote ter naravni odvod dima in toplote. Rezultati širjenja dima po etaži so upoštevani pri analizi evakuacije v računalniškem programu Pathfinder, kjer je analizirana hitrost evakuacije iz stavbe. Podrobno pa je predstavljen (analiziran) tudi pomen dvigala za gasilce. Na koncu je prikazana še analiza varnostne razsvetljave v referenčni etaži, narejena v računalniškem programu DIALux. Za potrebe predstavitve ključnih rezultatov analiz je bila v računalniškem programu Lumion narejena tudi video animacija.This master\u27s thesis comprehensively explores fire safety in high-rise buildings.

  • Le Crystal Palace : Ressource du site Passerelles
    Bibliothèque nationale de France, 2015
    Co-Authors: Bibliothèque Nationale De France
    Abstract:

    Le Crystal Palace de Londres est l'un des édifices les plus représentatifs de l'architecture de fer et de verre qui triomphe au XIX e siècle. Ce symbole de la Révolution industrielle est construit pour la première exposition universelle, en 1851. Il est détruit par un incendie en 1936. Réalisé en un temps record grâce à des éléments standardisés, il préfigure les méthodes de préfabrication actuelles.51.422277, -0.07238

  • Les techniques de construction du Crystal Palace de Londres : Ressource du site Passerelles
    Bibliothèque nationale de France, 2014
    Co-Authors: Bibliothèque Nationale De France
    Abstract:

    Connu comme l'un des édifices les plus représentatifs de l'architecture de fer et de verre, le Crystal Palace fait aussi un large usage d'un matériau plus traditionnel : le bois. En effet, les planchers supérieurs, la charpente des toits principaux et les nervures en forme d'arche du transept sont en bois. Le chantier du Crystal Palace fait aussi appel à des milliers de pièces conçues sur le même modèle, usinées en atelier. Cette technique préfigure la préfabrication. le rôle nouveau des ingénieurs dans la construction s'y révèle pleinement

  • La invención de la historia de la arquitectura
    2020
    Co-Authors: Caride Bartrons Horacio
    Abstract:

    El Palacio de Cristal, levantado en Londres para la Gran Exposición de 1851, integró uno de los capítulos más conocidos de la historia de la arquitectura y los diseños. Sin embargo, prácticamente desconocida es la historia del Palacio de Cristal, luego de su traslado al parque de Sydenham, al sudeste de Londres. Relocalizado tres años después, parte del enorme espacio –casi toda el ala norte, de unos 10.000 m2– fue ocupado por una serie de recreaciones de arquitecturas del pasado. Dos grandes patios dedicados al arte grecolatino y medieval estaban acompañados de varios courts: egipcio, griego, romano, bizantino, medieval y renacentista. Uno más celebraba la arquitectura de Asiria en Nínive; y otro, el Islam español, mediante una reproducción del Patio de los Leones de la Alhambra. El edificio y su interior continuaron en pie hasta que un pavoroso incendio destruyó las instalaciones en 1936.Reseña de Designing Antiquity. Owen Jones, Ancien Egypt and the Crystal Palace: Moser S.
