  • Taylor & Francis Housing Design Quality

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book directly addresses the major planning debate of our time - the delivery and quality of new housing development. As pressure for new housing development in England increases, a widespread desire to improve the design of the resulting residential environments becomes evermore apparent with increasing condemnation of the standard products of the volume housebuilders.In recent years central government has come to accept the need to deliver higher quality living environments, and the important role of the planning system in helping to raise design standards. Housing Design Quality focuses on this role and in particular on how the various policy instruments available to public authorities can be used in a positive manner to deliver higher quality residential developments.Table of ContentsPart 1: The Context for Delivering Quality 1.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Rethinking Urban Transport After Modernism

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisFor the last seven decades, urban settlement policy worldwide has been increasingly dominated by modernist precepts and by urban decisions made in discipline-specific âsilosâ. The urban management consequences have been invariably negative, with increasing sprawl, fragmentation and separation resulting in a wide range of environmental, social and economic problems. This book explores the role of movement in a more integrated approach to urban settlement, and how thinking, policies and actions need to change. South Africa is used as a particularly good case study, since patterns of sprawl, fragmentation and separation have been exacerbated by apartheid, while recent legislation has demanded a reversal of these tendencies.Trade Review’This is an interesting case study from South Africa...the book emphasises an integrated approach to urban management incorporating mobility with interesting illustrations, data.’ Built Environment ’This book presents a comprehensive overview of the planning and policy issues in South African settlements...clearly written...The book is to be recommended as an interesting case study. It would be of interest to all professionals, as well as to undergraduate and post-graduate academics, in the field of urban, land-use and transportation planning, ranging from design to policy-making.’ Journal of Housing and the Built EnvironmentTable of ContentsContents: Defining the problem: the objectives of this book; Setting the scene; Approaches to settlement-making: locating the concepts of structure and space; Movement as an element of urban structure and urban space; Movement in urban structure: the case of South Africa; Movement as an element of urban space; Movement in space: the case of South Africa; Conclusion; References; Appendix A: excerpt from the Transport Planning Act; Appendix B: further readings consulted.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Practical Building Conservation Metals

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisMetals deals with the conservation of a group of materials that have been used in buildings for everything from structural components and fixings to weatherproofing, repairs, and decoration.Trade Review'[The Practical Building Conservation volumes] offer considerable information and advice on many aspects of conservation… Great emphasis is placed in all the volumes on making the reader familiar with the material in question, giving them as much information and direction as possible to allow them to understand what they are dealing with… gives a comprehensive 'hands on' approach; solutions are found, methods described and practical tips freely given. It should be kept on the bookshelf within reach of most practising professionals in the field.' - Jane Jones-Warner RIBA SCA AABC IHBC, Member RIBA Conservation Group 'My overriding impression of this series is that it is comprehensive, well set out and easy to follow, and it should be of interest both to all involved in the repair and maintenance of historic buildings, and to the casual reader. Each volume stands alone or as part of a set. This represents a substantial body of work in the field of building conservation that is unlikely to be repeated in the near future. The tables and technical drawings are clear, and some of the photographs included are remarkable. The amount of information within each volume is staggering and must represent the nearest thing to a one-stop-shop for historic building practitioners. The new volume is a worthy successor to its parent edition, and fittingly dedicated to the memory of John Ashurst. This work, like the others [in the Practical Building Conservation series], is a must have for any conservation professional, student, or conservation library. While its price might seem high, its value over the years will pay back the costs many times over.' - Architectural Technology Magazine (AT)'Perhaps the most enjoyable aspect of this book for the North American conservator, then, is its presentation of both familiar and unfamiliar metal use, from a different perspective. While readers should not expect to find verys specific information to guide treatment, they will undoubtedly find a photo and description of a metal use or metal condition they were not familiar with and a useful prescription for treatment. Everyone will enjoy the detailed photographs and the excellent glossary at the end' - Richard Pieper, Directore of Preservation for Jan Hird Pokorny AssociatesTable of ContentsAbout this book.
