European Modernism In An American Commercial Context, Robert Bruce Dean

The Courier

This article seeks to explain why architect Willaim Lescaze's career proceeded the way it did. The author also makes observations about Lescaze's life in America during a secular, materialist age.

William Lescaze And The Machine Age, Arthur J. Pulos

The Courier

In this article, the author talks about the history of modern architecture, and in particular William Lescaze's contributions. He gives the reader background about the Machine Age in America, and how Lescaze evolved in his art, eventually dedicating his life to Formalism and the International Style.

A Brief Survey Of Architectural Holdings At The Syracuse University Libraries, Werner Seligmann

The Courier

This article gives a brief look at the various holdings regarding modern architecture located at Syracuse University. Among special note are the Lescaze papers, which the rest of this Courier issue examines in detail.

The William Lescaze Symposium Panel Discussion, Dennis P. Doordan

The Courier

This article is an adapted form of a panel discussion that took place discussing the architect William Lescaze. Overall, the panel seemed divided between those who judged Lescaze's achievements acoording to the established tenets of orthodox modernism and those who sought a new critical framework for evaluating Lescaze's contribution to the rise of modern design in American based upon typological, professional, and commercial criteria.

The David Simpson House, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

The David Simpson House is recommended for historic designation as a significant example of settlement-era architecture. Built in 1877, the house is a visible reminder of the community's settlement period and a notable example of the popular front-facing gable house-type.

Log Cabin Studies: The Rocky Mountain Cabin, Log Cabin Technology And Typology, Log Cabin Bibliography, United States Department Of Agriculture, Forest Service

Forestry

While conducting fieldwork in southern Idaho during the summer of 1980, I came upon numerous examples of a type of cabin not previously documented. This report attempts to determine how this type fits with other known cabin types, and to find its place in present theories about American vernacular architecture. By making use of extant reports, historical photos, and archeological site forms, it is apparent this cabin type can be found throughout the Rocky Mountain region. Along with other Western studies, this report attempts to show that vernacular construction patterns in the Western United States differ from those present in …

Smemax? Caution!, Jerome A. Westphal

Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The SMEMAX Transformation was tested on samples generated from log-Pearson Type III and Gumbel Extreme Value Type 1 distributions. Although the transformation results in a distribution with a skew near zero, it is not a true normal distribution. The coefficients of kurtosis for the transformed distributions are always less than three and when the parent distribution approaches a reverse-J shape, the transformed distribution is bimodal. When the skew coefficient of the logarithms of events is -0.5 or greater for samples from the log-Pearson Type III distribution, the SMEMAX procedure underestimates the magnitude of events with return periods of 50 yr …

A Stochastic Model For A Small-Time-Interval-Intermittent Hydrologic Process, Charles Darwin Morris

Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A methodology is developed for the generation of intermittent small-time-interval (15-min.) precipitation. This methodology consists of three components: a probabilistic wet-and-dry sequence component; a Markovian precipitation distribution component; and a regressive spatial-distribution component. The theory of stochastic hydrologic modeling is described and procedures by which this theory can be applied to a hydrologic time series are presented. In particular, the application of the procedures to small-time-interval-intermittent hydrologic processes is given. The methodology is demonstrated by application to an actual precipitation network, the Boneyard Creek raingage network in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, U.S.A. The trend in frequency of precipitation amounts from the 89-yr. …

Schwartz, Giuseppe Vallifuoco, Sergio Petrini

School of Architecture - All Scholarship

This publication is the result of one semester's design work from the Syracuse University Florence Program. Our purpose in compiling this material is two-fold; in presenting this work as an example of the design activity that occurs at the Florence Center, we intend to reveal the unique opportunity that this Program offers to students from the United States. In addition, we are using this vehicle to address the in­tellectual context within which our students worked during their design process. Giuseppe Vallifuoco and Sergio Petrini (Roman architects and our Visiting Critics) presented a specific bias toward the produc­tion of architecture, and …

1983.2 - Student Centre Uta, Martin Price, Jay Hoffman, Darrel Fields

School of Architecture Student Projects - Archive

Design work from the 1983 fall semester, Studio Martin Price, School of Architecture, The University of Texas at Arlington. Student Centre. Jay Hoffman and Darrel Fields. The challenge for the project was to site a student centre at the heart of the UTA campus without impeding upon one of its few green open spaces. This is achieved by creating a profile that folds the land into the sky to a height that responds to the adjacent buildings. Two grass-covered hills replace a flat landscape to form a groundscraper which contains the programmatic functions. Crossing paths tunnel through the higher elements …

Modernization Of Agriculture And The Monetization Of A Village Economy In Deccan Maharashtra India, Hemalata C. Dandekar

City and Regional Planning

The focus of everyday life in Sugao revolves around farming. Village activity changes with the agricultural season and farm tasks are the rotating pivot around which village society is organized. The agricultural cycle has traditionally been geared, in the Sugao farmer's mind, to the moon and the astrological sign (of which there are twenty-seven in the Hindu calendar) in dominance at the time. In practice, cultivation tasks have become associated with phases of the Hindu lunar calendar which give the farmer guidance when to do what in his fields. This paper describes some of the changes that have occurred in …

The Moore House, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

The Moore House is recommended for Historic designation for its turn-of-the-century architecture, its visual qualities important to three neighboring houses of historic/architectural significance, and its restoration potential.

The Fleckenstein-Newton House, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

The Fleckenstein-Newton House and Barn are recommended for Historic designation for their historic qualities and potential for restoration. Although the house fails to fit any particular architectural style and has been somewhat altered, it, nonetheless, exhibits some interesting decorative features and, very importantly, has a decided historic quality which complements other houses on the block. The barn, quite handsome and very important to the character of the area, also deserves Historic designation.
