    Relaciones proyectivas en la arquitectura del Carmen Blanco
    (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2015-06-22) Rivas López, Esteban José
    [EN] The work aims to inquire about the classically called Formal Control Instruments of Architecture, which had to be employed in the project process of the Carmen Blanco, a building which can be now contemplated overlooking the city of Granada from its strategic position over the Mauror hill. As we make an approach to the referent object of study using the architectural analysis tools, we discover that the trace of the building is based on the Cordovan Proportion as primitive rule, which is supplemented by the Golden Section and its gnomon to size and position certain auxiliary elements. These results superimposed on those of previous researches related to the genesis of the Carmen, undoubtedly confirm that we are facing an architecture traced by the hands of an architect, the Grenadian José Felipe Giménez Lacal

    Faros italianos entre geometría y simbolismo
    (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2015-06-22) Bartolomei, Cristiana; Ippolito, Alfonso
    [EN] Coastal lighthouses in Italy incarnate mathematical formalism. Modern mathematics, when applied to geometry, is formal, aiming at the concrete meaning of the analyzed entities: geometric shapes and surfaces. Lighthouses integrate the functional aspects of navigation, orientation and security and refer to geometric and symbolic concepts. Each lighthouse constitutes a geometric equation. The article presents the typological organization of their architecture, or rather of their helical staircases, in terms of geometry and symbolism. The form of lighthouse towers, designed according to fundamental concepts of Euclidean geometry are also analyzed. The analysis leads to the conclusion that architecture and mathematics are systems permeated with abstract symbols which linked together assume precise and concrete meanings. The study of the relationship between geometry and symbolism enables us to see and understand the synergy of the individual parts of the buildings analyzed

    Tradición y evolución moderna. Tres arquitecturas-patio de Francisco Asís Cabrero
    (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2015-06-22) Coca Leicher, José de
    [EN] We describe design mechanisms used by Francisco de Asís Cabrero in his patio architectures by analyzing three selected examples: the “zoco” exhibition of the first national country fair (1950), the Escuela Nacional de Hosteleria, and the pavilion of the trade union Obra Sindical del Hogar (1956). The research starts with the references based on the muslim tradition described by Fernando Chueca, which are transformed and adapted to incorporate modern references: the Italian rationalism, Mies courtyard houses and the light constructions of Charles and Ray Eames. We conclude that systems of tapestries or parallel walls and organizations in ‘U’ are an ignored reference of the classic systems used by Cabrero underlying his radically modern work. The research is based on the original documentation compiled during the realization of the PhD thesis and is illustrated with drawings by the author.

    La reconstrucción virtual del patrimonio arquitectónico y su aplicación metodológica
    (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2015-06-22) Piquer-Cases, Juan Carlos; Capilla-Tamborero, Esther; Molina-Siles, Pedro
    [EN] The virtual reconstruction of architectural heritage is a fundamentally theoretical work that can address the problem of physical intervention in ruinous groups of buildings. The advantage of this work methodology is to provide, in addition to graphical database, three-dimensional visualizations in a digital architectural model.The heritage management according to this system allows the realization of previous studies evaluating the feasibility of a future reconstruction project. The virtual nature of the method provides non-invasive theoretical results that allow an adequate disclosure.This paper, in addition to establishing the methodological framework, provides a practical example of application in the virtual recovery of Al-Munastir Castle.

    “Demolición de la trinidad” boceto de Jenaro Pérez Villaamil. Documento fundamental para conocer la antigua iglesia de Santiago de Guadalajara
    (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2015-06-22) Trallero Sanz, Antonio Miguel
    [EN] The city of Guadalajara had ten parish churches in the 19th century, besidesfourteen convents and a large number of other religious buildingsthat made the religious function one of the most important activity in the city. Most of the religious architectural heritage was lost due to confiscation, suppression of parishes, war and neglect.One of these missing buildings wasthe old parish church of Santiago.We can approach the architecture and construction of this building with graphic documents preserved, but mainly due to aJenaro Pérez Villaamil ́s freehand sketch
