Summary:
Die Geländemodellierung spielt in der Landschaftsarchitektur eine der Hauptrollen, sie ist neben der Bepflanzung das wichtigste Element zur Gestaltung der Landschaft. Landschaftsarchitekten müssen in der Lage sein, mit Höhenlinien zu entwerfen, schnell Alternativen zu entwickeln und Varianten bezüglich Gestaltung, Ökologie, Ökonomie und Technik zu prüfen. Dazu sind Kenntnisse der Geländemodellierung unabdingbare Voraussetzung.Das Buch erläutert grundlegende Aspekte der Geländemodellierung: Geländeformen, Maßstäbe, Interpolation, Höhenpunkte, Höhenlinie, Erdmassenberechnung, und führt in Themen wie Hangsicherungssysteme, Regenwassermanagement oder Geländemodellierung auf der Baustelle ein. In der zweiten Auflage werden diese Grundlagen um neue Technologien wie landscapingSMART, digitale Geländemodellierung (DGM) und 3D-Maschinensteuerung aktualisiert. Hinzu kommen die Geländemodellierung von Straßen und Parkplätzen sowie weitere Baummaschinen zur Geländemodellierung.Zahlreiche Praxisbeispiele ergänzen die theoretischen Grundlagen, in einem Aufgabenteil kann das Erlernte angewendet werden.
Grading is one the most important aspects involved in landscape architecture, and, together with planting and vegetation, the most important tool in designing landscape. Landscape architects must be able to design using contour lines, as well as rapidly develop alternatives and consider options regarding design, ecology, economy, and technology. Knowledge of grading is an indispensable prerequisite. The book explains the basic aspects of grading such as land forms, scales, interpolation, elevation points, contour lines, earth mass calculation, and also introduces the topics of slope protection systems, rainwater management, or onsite grading. In the second edition, these basics have been updated to comprise new technologies including landscaping SMART, digital terrain modeling (DTM) and 3D machine control, as well as grading for roads and parking lots, and other terrain modeling construction machines. Numerous practical examples complement the theoretical foundations, and there is a section for exercises aimed at applying what has been learned.
