In a world of tight time frames and highly interdependent processes, scheduling is an indispensable prerequisite for successful project implementation. It is the duty of the architect to manage all the project participants in a goal-oriented manner and to call for their results when the time is right. For this reason, a systematic schedule of target dates, adapted to a project's sequences and workflows, is a necessary tool for the day-to-day management and monitoring of complex construction projects. Topics: Organizing the planning and construction process The basics of scheduling Goal-oriented presentation formats and levels of detail Developing a schedule Using schedules in the real world
Im komplexen Entwurfsprozess entwickelt der Architekt Räume, die durch verschiedene Einflussgrößen geprägt sind. Wichtig sind Parameter wie Flächenbedarf, Abstände, Einrichtungsgegenstände oder Bewegungszonen. In diesem handlichen Nachschlagewerk finden sich schnell konkrete Informationen zu räumlichen Situationen, die Bestandteil vieler Typologien sind. So sind etwa alle wichtigen Maßangaben zu Fluren, Treppen oder Sanitärobjekten aufgeführt.
The design of a building is a complex process in which the architect develops spaces which are defined by a number of different parameters. The most important of these are space requirements, distances, furniture and fittings, and movement zones. From the dimensions of the human body it is possible to derive guide values for these reference sizes that make spaces comfortable to be in and to use. Spaces in Architecture is a useful reference work for students and designers for quickly looking up detailed information on space scenarios that occur in many different types of buildings. For example, the book lists all important dimensions for entrance areas, doors, staircases, ramps, and elevators. On the basis of this fundamental information it is possible to design buildings in terms of function and type.
The construction sector currently accounts for a high proportion of CO2 emissions and gray energy use. This will have to change fundamentally if we are to prevent catastrophic climate change and make urban planning and construction fit for the future. In addition to a paradigm shift in how architects work, we need to rethink how they are trained in higher education. Based on a lifecycle approach and an awareness of resource consumption, this volume in the Basics series explains a wide range of climate-friendly concepts in an easy-to-understand way, inspiring readers to take a closer look at solutions and new approaches in their daily practice. The key factors involved in the various planning stages of buildings are presented and placed in the context of the overall planning. Explains a range of current sustainability concepts Foundational knowledge for all students of architecture Interdisciplinary and networked consideration of challenges and solutions in the area of climate protection

Design Ideas offers students a variety of different ways to go about finding a design solution. In addition to suggesting fundamental ways to get the creative process moving and develop a design approach, it also proposes various sources of inspiration for design ideas. It focuses on the three elements of place, form, and function, which can sometimes constitute immediate springboards for concrete designs. These elements must eventually be incorporated as the design process.Subjects: Creativity in the design process; Sources of inspiration and design approaches; Working with place; Working with form; Working with function.
Technical Drawing deals with the representation of plans throughout all phases of a project. For students, the primary focus is on the development and methodical construction of a technical drawing. Themes: Types of plan (from site plan and preliminary drawings to design and detail plans)Components of the plan (floor plan, section, elevation, detail)Line width, dimensioning, hatching, use of text, symbolsPlan presentation and compilation

At the beginning of their studies students of architecture are confronted with a wealth of different ways in which to visually present their designs. Expressing ideas in the form of drawings and models is usually required in the early stages of studying: "learning by doing" is the only way for students to quickly develop a repertoire for their design work.However, there are important issues to consider between the phases of devising the spatial concept and recreating it in a two- or three-dimensional drawing or physical model: How to construct a perspective freehand drawing? What plan drawings are necessary to present my design? What scale should my model be and what materials should I use to construct it?Basics Architectural Presentation combines the highly successful single volumes Technical Drawing, CAD, Modelbuilding, and Architectural Photography from the series BASICS with a yet to be published volume entitled Freehand Drawing. Step-by-step, it conveys possible ways to present architectural projects throughout the various project phases. In an informative and practical approach, the publication discusses the basics of architectural representation from freehand drawing, which is especially important in the design phase, to the plan drawing, model, and architecture photography. The student architect learns the tools necessary for presenting his or her work, supported by many concrete examples and practical tips that are directly applicable.

Successful project management of construction projects is largely dependant on the confident handling of construction costs and schedules. For contractors, the ability to reliably plan costs is an essential quality feature of a good architect, and hence one of the most important basics of project preparation. Cost estimation is also vital in preparing project budgets, and it particularly requires an efficient methodology that can immediately reveal possible planning-related cost overruns. Central key concepts such as cost variables or life-cycle costs, costing methods, and cost control methods form an essential repertoire for all practicing architects.Basics Budgeting explains cost planning processes during the planning and construction phase step-by-step and on a practical level, and describes in a clear and structured manner how to estimate and evaluate cost impacts and risks. Supported by practical tips, examples, and illustrations, the inexperienced planner learns the tools of the trade in order to enter the field of budget management informed and in step with actual practice.

Projekte im Bestand gelten in Immobilien- und Planerkreisen als risikoreich und arbeitsintensiv. Die Projektentwicklung und die Projektdurchführung im Bestand sind auf Grund der vielen Besonderheiten nur bedingt mit dem Neubau zu vergleichen. Das Fachbuch bietet hierzu ein fundiertes Wissen zur professionellen Initiierung und Durchführung von Bauprojekten im Bestand. Die Autoren erläutern praxisnah und gut strukturiert die Bestandsprojektentwicklung, die Bestandsanalyse und die Besonderheiten der Planung und Bauausführung.
Das Buch Hochbaukosten beschäftigt sich mit den Errichtungs- und Unterhaltungskosten von Gebäuden. Neben dem Wortlaut und der Kommentierung der DIN 276-1, der DIN 18960 und wohnungsrechtlicher Vorgaben werden Praxisbeispiele und Vorgehensweisen bei der Kostenermittlung erläutert. Die DIN 276-1 wurde mit einigen inhaltlichen Änderungen im Jahr 2018 neu aufgestellt und enthält nun auch die Regelungen für den Ingenieurbau (ehemals DIN 276-3).
The core task of the classic architect, in addition to architectural design and planning work, is management of the construction project: from planning operations and tendering, to scheduling and cost planning and construction management. These important practical tasks are usually only covered during studies by one subject: Construction Management or Construction Economics, and thus treated as less significant. But every architect must master these abilities in order to manage and realize his or her own projects successfully. How are the individual processes interrelated? How are professionals networked? How do the different levels of organization function? Because of tight deadlines and strongly interdependent processes, scheduling is an important prerequisite for successful project implementation. Architects have a duty to control all those involved and to procure their services at the right times.Basics Architectural Project Management brings together the successful individual volumes, Project Planning, Tendering, Construction Scheduling, and Site Management from the student series BASICS into one volume, which is completed by the new, not yet published book Budgeting, and answers in one publication the crucial hows and whys of construction.
