The Research of Three Significant Changes Resulted from Industrialization in the Development of Architecture

Abstract:

Architecture has changed dramatically along with the development of industrialization. In contrast to some of the more traditional methods of the construction industry organized predominantly along craft lines, architecture can now be the industrial product of components made in a factory [1]. It is the big change in the process of designing, manufacturing and constructing. The three changes make architecture a kind of industrial product, and not only an art work or something else. What details about these changes involved, why these changes exist and how these changes influence architecture are all main things to study. Through analyzing some particular buildings, these problems were made clear, and we found what is good or bad in these changes for architecture. On the basis of the research, we could get a good answer to the direction of the development of architecture in form, design, manufacture style and constructing process.
