definition of architecture?
351097
Architecture (from Latin, architectura and ultimately from Greek, αρχιτεκτων, "a master builder", from αρχι- "chief, leader" and τεκτων, "builder, carpenter")[1] is the art and science of designing buildings and structures. A wider definition would include within its scope the design of the total built environment, from the macrolevel of town planning, urban design, and landscape architecture to the microlevel of creating furniture. Architectural design usually must address both feasibility and cost for the builder, and function and aesthetics for the user.

You could make a comparative analysis of a few architects, say from three different eras and prove how relevant they are today and why.  Your summary might include that the architects that you have chosen can be seen in much of the architecture that is built today.  Cite examples of those new works of architecture and state how the influence can be seen - like in the details, spatial relationships, and the articulation of the facade.

Currently there is a big focus on architecture using recycled materials, ambient light and other environmentally friendly stuff to erect "green buildings".  Lower energy consumption is also a big thing.

Structural engineering is the science and art of designing and  making, with economy and elegance, buildings, bridges, frameworks and other similar structures so that they can safely resist the forces to which they may be subjected.

Not sure what you are asking exactly, but in the world of machine design, a structure is an assembly whose number of degrees of freedom is zero. More simply, one in which there is no relative motion. The most basic 'structure' is a simply supported beam. Another very obvious structure is a truss. An arch is a structure as well but it is technically a preloaded structure, i.e., is has negative 1 degree of freedom. There are many types of joints, but all can be classified on how many degrees of freedom they allow. Often call full or half joints. The six lower pairs (joints with surface contact rather than line or point contact between links) are 1) revolute joint, 2) prismatic joint, 3) Helical joint, 4) cylindrical joint, 5) spherical joint, 6) planar joint\n\nReaction is a little different. According to Newtons 3rd law, any force exerted from one body onto another is reacted by the second onto the first. In engineering, we are concerned with how and where a body reacts these forces. For instance, a simply supported beam with a large mass in the middle will react the mass equally at both ends. However, if we move the load so that it is directly above one of the supports, the other support will not contribute any reaction force to support the load.

This n terms f civil engineering refers to the views in which objects- from a simple line , a 2-D , a 3-D to combinations of 3-D which form a shape( a building).. Views mean when u look from the top how it looks;, from the front, how it looks, etc.. it s quite interesting if u understand the subject..

Architechure seem to be the new buzz word.\n\nAn architecture is the set of significant decisions about the organization of a software system, the selection of the structural elements and their interfaces by which the system is composed, together with their behavior as specified in the collaborations among those elements, the composition of these structural and behavioral elements into progressively larger subsystems, and the architectural style that guides this organization---these elements and their interfaces, their collaborations, and their composition (Kruchten: The Rational Unified Process. Also cited in Booch, Rumbaugh, and Jacobson: The Unified Modeling Language User Guide, Addison-Wesley, 1999).

aesthetics from a design point of view is when something looks nice. from a computing point of view its the simplest programme to get the job done, not overworked

well u definitely need to know physics to be doing architecture... i mean, if u seriously wanna make biuldings n all then how will u manage if u don't know anything abt newton's laws, force, tension, elasticity n what not.... check out this link for more details:\nhttp://learning.indiatimes.com/career/car_options/arch/arch.htm

Do you mean facade?  As in the front or the face of something?

1. What is the definiton of your word? C\n2. Can you give the word in a sentence?\n3. Try Ditctionary.com, m-w.com, and yahoo reference dictionary to help you.\nGood luck and i hope i helped\nWait, before i posted i checked dictionary.com try\nthis http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/facade\nThe word you are looking for is facadethe front of a building, esp. an imposing or decorative one.  \nany side of a building facing a public way or space and finished accordingly.

B.S. Architcture right\n...cuz your still dealin with the environment before you make a plan

do you mean exterior design?

Interior Architecture is the structure of the room or place and interior design relates to fabrics, furniture, colour scheme etc.

The answer is CLASSICAL ANTIQUITY.\nHowever the question is what form of Classicism are you referring to: Architecture, The Arts, Theater, etc.\nThe portal to answering your question can be found on the WIKIPEDIA link below.  Enjoy. Good Luck.

A sort of philosophy that attempts to present/describe the architecture--as it were--of consciousness and things (i.e., objects and such) as they are, independent of any previous philosophical underpinning.\n\nIt is, actually, very difficult to explain. Moreover, the preeminent phenomenologists--Heidegger and Husserl--require patience and time to read well.\n\nSeriously. I had been studying phenomenology for three months before I began to be able to talk about what it was about.\n\nThat is part of its "point," though--to express things in language in such an abstract fashion that the listener/reader comes to question the role of language in the construction of awareness and the physical world, and to see it (language) as a thing in and of itself.\n\nYou'll probably get better answers if you post this in a philosophy section, by the way.

Architectural Design is a Engineering effort which shows the detailed design/structural details of a building/construction/bridge etc.Typically the design consists of Engineering drawings,3-Dimesion views which shows the finers details of the construction which are drawn to some scale( not the exact size of the structure ) and consists of technical details/specifications
