The Groundwork of Architecture, written by Emile George Perrot in 1921, is a comprehensive study of the relationship between architectural styles and structural engineering. The book explores the fundamental principles of architecture and how they are influenced by the technical and practical aspects of engineering. Perrot examines the historical development of architectural styles and their evolution over time, emphasizing the importance of understanding the underlying engineering principles that shape them. The book provides a detailed analysis of various architectural styles, including Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, and Modernist, and how they are characterized by their structural engineering features. The author also discusses the role of materials in architecture, such as stone, wood, and steel, and how they influence the design and construction of buildings. The Groundwork of Architecture is a valuable resource for architects, engineers, and anyone interested in the history and theory of architecture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
