In this issue of DETAIL, the Fellows Pavillon of the American Academy in Bertin and the EU Council headquarters in Brussels comply with this image in quite different ways, In contrast, the monumental roof structure over th Telcel Theatre in Mexico City demonstrates the archaic sculptural strength of the material, while the sensual qualities of stee! used for the outer skin of a building can be recognized in the restrained form of the pump- Ing station in Bochum with its new facade of partly Perforated shesting. Constuctional intelligence is the ‘overriding theme of the introductory article about the lamalla halls of the aviation anginesr Hugo Junkors as itis, indeed, of the feature on the highly demanding manufacture and tremendous performance of stae! monocoque structures.201908 DETAN, Pure Invention? - The Lamella Halls of the Aviation Pioneer Hugo Junkers, Joram Tutsch, Sven Tomack, Rainer Barthel “Inour day and age, | see the central issua of bulding in the industalzation of con- jitutian,” and thi process “ie a question of materials", Mies van der Rohe wrote in 1924, With these words, he formulated an issue that Hugo Junkers had resolved in aireraft ‘onstruction ten years earlier n contrast to what was standard practice in those days, Junkers did not build with wood, a natural ‘matorial that was unpradictabla from an an- gineer’s pont of view. Instead, ne opted systematically for aeroplanes made entirely of metal. As early as 1925, Junkers had ex- perimented in his ov building develop ments with industrial forms of construction, and thera, too, he chose motal rathor than’ feancrate. With tha raferm building dopant ‘ment ofthe Junkers werks, he attempted, by ‘mane of a cooperation between the various company sections. 19 produce a pretabr- caatad building that could be assembled ac ‘cording to serial principles. The basic fine: ings he had made in the field of aircraft con- suction he now applied to engineering stuctures, and over the years, scientiic building research was implamantad in the Junkers plant undar the laboratory cond! tions ofthe akeratt Indy ‘Aesthetic and formal considerations took @ back seat behind physical and technical re- ‘uirements. His most successful building fnginearing achievement, tha £o-callac ‘Junkers lamella hal’, was developed, mar- koled and propagated by the department for steel construction, The constructional history of ths hal vl be consicored in the following paper. Hugo Junkers, the person (Only when he was 50 years old did the quel- flac engineer Hugo clunkers turn to alrerat Construction, @ discipline in which he was Lately to gain international renew, ‘At that point inf Ife, he was the father of seven childran; he had alrsady developed the frst two-stroke opposed-piston gas er: dine and the calorimeter (an apparatus for ‘measuring the amount of heat generated in chemical reactions); he had founded six ‘companies (vith more than 20 further ones to follow); and he had a tll professorship fer thermodynamics atthe prestigious Univers ty of Technology in Aachen. There, he was motivated by his colleague Hans Raissnr to take an interest in aviation, In 1910, he had already patented the so- called “thick wing”, and only five years iter, he succeeded with a pioneering construc tion in ereating the frst al-metal plane — something which, upto thet time, had been regarded as impossible. Animated by ani repressible urge to participate in research and aided by tho economic davelopmont of the Junkers works, more than 20 different aircraft models were devalopad and con- stucted during his ifetme, the best-known ‘of which ware the Junkers F13 and Junkers .JU62, nicknamed “Tente Ju’, These were the most auecesetul passenger planes of the 1920s and 30s, In 1919, Junkors initiated the fist air route between Dessau and Weimar and played a Particiatory role in @ numberof ain. The company Junkers-Luftverkehy AG, founded in 1921, merged with Deutscher ‘Aero Lloyd in 1926 19 bocome the Goxrman Lfthanea Inthe 1920s, other spin-off and start-up ‘companies ware founded in Germany as ‘wall as in the Soviet Union, the US, Sweden and Turkey. The concern retained its base in Dessau, however, which at that ima ean be seen as a Mecca for engineers and te rictana. When the Bauhaus was invited to establish itself in that prosperous ety in 4925 — with strong support from Junkers — the company increasingly applied itsei to the industrialization of building construction, In 1924, under the drection ofthe architect Ottokar Paulcsen, tne steal construction de- partment ofthe Junkers plant applied for ts first patent: for the so-caled “bar grid’. In the following years, a civilaw dispute developed vith the Zallbau Syncicate on account of alle- dations ofa strong simiarty betwaan the Junkers system and that of Zolinger. This ‘was setied only in 1928, Before the Junkers concern was caught up in the world econom. io orsi as well, lurkers himself managed to develop the lamella hal into a succosstl product and to market t worlwide. A tragic turn of events for Hugo Junkers and his consortium was the selzure of power in Germany by the Nazis, whose in ‘rigues and threats he fet as early as 1990. Within a few months, Junkers was frst dis- possessed, then ousted from Dessau and finally, on 3 February 1994, his 75th birth- day, placed undor house arrestin his hol day home in Bayrischzel. Exactly one year later, Junkers diod in Gauting noar Munich, ‘Ten years after the enc ofthe Second ‘World War, the journal "Miirchner tl strlerte” published a six-part series with the tile "Die Junkers Tragee” (The Junkers Tragedy)Devan 21506 Discussion S47508 China Pavilion for Expo Milano 2015 Baling Now Yor based Chinasa architect Vichen Lu won the commission to create the Ch ‘980 Pavilion for the Milan Expa in a national ‘competition in 2013.
