From Structure To Form

In the architectural design the key point of plastic design lies in esthetics, and the key point of structural design lies in mechanics. Actually they certainly are not the opposition, but has many intrinsic relations in among.Very early on we know that the structure is the skeleton of the building, is the material base which building depends on exists, a building which does not have the structure is similar to the human body without the skeleton. But, the structure besides plays the skeleton role in the construction, its another function which not allow to neglect, is the impact to the construction form beautiful.Along with material discovery or technical enhancement, whenever a kind of new material or the structure technique obtains a universal application, they are bound to play a significant shocks to architectural form. Today flown to develop soon in science technique, we can clearly see that, there're more magic and sharp weapons in the architect's hand than before, and also more free space to display their ideas and thinking. But, at the same time, they also raised a very serious problem, How does the form creation have fully also suitably fusion to the structure, can obtain the renewal, be more beautiful, more pleasant also a sustainable space?This thesis is precisely cuts into by this to launch with the discussion. First it discussed the connotation of architecture, analyzed the Xingshimei unified campaign laws and its the performance essential factor in architecture. At the same time, the impact of structure technology changing and its progress to the western architecture is also elaborated from the perspective of the history of construction, such as the historical style under the influence of the arch structure variety which Ancient Greek Ancient Roman Byzantium Gothic, and in China's ancient architecture the structural causes of some typical decorative elements such as upturned eave Dougong Mending Queti and so forth.Then the importance of the architectural design principle and the structure in the architectural design is elaborated, and there're something which be discussed in with emphasis necessity and the possibility to blend in the architectural design structure and the form, criticize two extreme one-sided between a form lopsided and the construction lopsided. Be also put forward the create ideas to carries on the formcreation by making use of mechanics logic, material structure craft control, elaborated with emphasis in the architectural design mechanics modelling concept, and try to discovers the form in the mechanics logic beautiful.Finally, from material technology .. space structure theory ecologically sustainable several aspects starting to explore their development and their impact on the structure and form of future architectural forms, and then made the reasonable deduction and the forecast to the future construction form. At the end of the thesis, aims at the building education of the our country and build profession, proposed some suggestible place which were worth pondering and needed improving. Also discussed the principle of the Chinese localization architectural design, emphasize the road of the building of the unique feature China, and then pointed out a direction for the later further research.
