1 de nov. de 2013 · This paper studies the structural behaviour, from a conceptual point of view, of the so-called ‘La Devesa-type’ footbridges, composed of a straight deck supported by an eccentric inclined arch. This type of bridge has been pioneered and very frequently built by Calatrava.
Published on the occasion of the exhibition Santiago Calatrava: Structure and Expression, March 25- May 18, 1993, organized by Matilda McQuaid, Assistant Curator, Department of Architecture. and Design, The Museum of Modern Art, New York. This publication is made possible by a generous grant from the Government of Valencia, Spain.
This study aims at showcasing the design style of famous architect, Santiago Calatrava – a Spanish born architect of the post-modernist movement, whose architectural projects can best be described
29 de sept. de 2012 · Here a thorough structural analysis of one of Calatrava’s most well known bridges is performed to determine how well it achieves the goals of structural engineering. This provides insight as to how well Calatrava’s works represent engineering as art and what we can learn from his works in the context of great works of structural art.
As a finding, it is highlighted that this bridge applied physical concepts such as: aerodynamics, torsion, compression, tension, traction, and gravitation, in compliance with its formal-aesthetic...
It compares the material efficiency of the common forms of catenary-type and cable-stay suspension bridges, and assesses the relative merits of the so called harp and fan forms of cable-stay...
25 de mar. de 1993 · Santiago Calatrava: Structure and Expression focuses on themes of transformation and movement in nine projects designed or built during the past decade. The exhibition reveals the influence of Calatrava’s dual training in architecture and engineering on his work, which is distinguished by its expressive use of technology and ...
