O ovoj e-knjizi

Towers Tilted explores the fascinating world of leaning towers, investigating the architectural and engineering factors that cause these structures to defy gravity. It highlights how a combination of ambition, miscalculation, and environmental conditions can lead to these iconic tilts. The book delves into examples worldwide, from Pisa to Suurhusen, showcasing the diverse causes of inclination and the innovative engineering solutions developed to preserve these historical buildings. It also underscores the importance of understanding soil mechanics and structural engineering in construction.

The book is structured in three parts, beginning with a global tour of tilted towers and their historical contexts. It then delves into the science behind the tilt, examining soil composition and foundation design, and environmental factors. Finally, it focuses on preservation and intervention, detailing the methods used to stabilize these structures, such as soil extraction and structural reinforcement.

By blending historical narrative with technical analysis, Towers Tilted offers a unique perspective on how these initially perceived failures have become testaments to human resilience and cultural endurance, providing valuable lessons for contemporary architects and engineers.
