Being part of the European Façade Network efn, an association of ten research and education entities throughout Europe, I would like to share my experiences of last year’s conferences and research activities with this brief contribution.
The paper will try to study the impact of window opening on waiting room experience of patients in an eye hospital along with their attendants. As
Curtain wall design commonly uses insulating glass units for vision and spandrel glazing to provide better visual harmonization of building facade
Kresge Auditorium and the MIT Chapel, designed by Eero Saarinen and built in 1955, are both world renowned works of architecture and powerful symbols
Window glass design using ASTM E 1300 entails determining glass thickness(es) and types so that the window glass construction load resistance
Over the years, the industry has relied heavily on the increasing performance of low-e coatings to drive window U-factors (thermal transmittance)
As facades become more sophisticated and complex, more detail-intensive and performance-critical, it's vital that architecture students develop a
FTI's celebrated Forum in Houston brought together thought leaders to explore the amplified threats of climate change in the unique urban context of Houston.
Facade Tectonics Institute completes its 2019 Regional Forum Series with NYC Forum hosted by the Ornamental Metal Institute of New York at the Princeton Club
The sold out 2019 Toronto Forum brought together AECO industry thought leaders to confront themes central to ever-evolving facade technology, themes engaging facade design, delivery, renewal, materiality, sustainability and resilience.
FTI touched down in Minneapolis to confront themes central to the ever-evolving facade: energy-efficiency and sustainability, digital technology, kinetic and dynamic components, and material evolution.
FTI held its celebrated Forum in Miami with thought leaders to explore the amplified threats of climate change in the unique urban context of Miami.
More details will be announced soon. Make sure you're signed up to receive event updates.
.FTI's 2019 NYC Forum was an intimate, provocative and forward-looking dialogue with thought leaders from all sectors of the building industry; owners, architects, consultants, contractors and more.
This year's World Congress was presented online through a virtual platform providing a unique forum for a diverse cross section of the design and real estate communities to discuss the innovations and advancements revolutionizing the design and delivery of the building skin.
Architecture has traditionally celebrated the joining of two building components or materials. Joinery serves as a key site for architectural
The gap between simulated and actual energy performance has hobbled progress towards important carbon reduction goals in buildings and urban habitat. This summit advocates the need for improved energy modeling and the development of best practices, with emphasis on the building façade.
The Facade Tectonics Institute (FTI) hosted its fifth 2019 Regional Forum in the Material Matters series at Rice University. FTI is widely recognized for producing the leading technical events focused on buildings and urban habitat through the lens of the building skin.
