Abstract
|
:
|
"The office of Schlaich, Bergemann und Partner has a world-wide reputation for its innovative structures of striking aesthetic quality. The work ranges from cable-net and membrane roofs through bridges of a unique inventiveness to new devices for the utilization of solar energy. This account of their work concentrates on their leader Jorg Schlaich without losing sight of his partnership with Rudolf Bergermann and a steadfast team of designers and researchers based in his consulting office and in his Institute for Conceptual and Structural Design at the University of Stuttgart."--BOOK JACKET.
