However, the use of the technical term with reference to creative endeavors gave rise to a certain dualism in its interpretation, from fetishization of the role of engineering constructions to replacement of constructional expediency by architectural plastics and functional expressionism.
The functionalists, proceeding from the simplified interpretation of the notion “the truth in architecture”, did not associate the architectural tectonics with imagery, but led everything to the “true-to-life” presentation of the construction itself or the function as such, which made it possible to evaluate architecture in the same terms as engineering structures whose beauty can really be comparable to the beauty of optimally resolved constructions or functional spaces.
The new building technologies and materials, plus the increased role of engineering factors in the development of architecture, left behind the tectonic systems based on the imagery demonstration of the constructions’ vital functions.

Study on Carbonation Resistance of High-performance Concrete with Large Amount of Fly Ash

asnowpiner@upc.edu.cn
Keywords: High-performance concrete, Fly ash, Water-binder ratio, Compressive strength, Mechanism of carbonation, Carbonation depth.
However, anti-carbonation of fly ash on concrete properties is of lots of controversy in academic circles and some tests conclusions are quite different [2], which has a great influence on wide use of fly ash in engineering practice.
In practical engineering, as the concentration of CO2 gas in the atmospheric is low, the carbonation process is very slow, with fly ash pozzolanic reaction having been carried out, and the strength of concrete changes, the internal density of concrete continuously improves, porosity reduces, carbonation speed correspondingly reduces, so the anti- carbonation ability of the concrete is continuously enhanced.

Keywords: rock chips; high strength concrete small hollow blocks; fractal dimension; curing methods; shrinkage
Abstract: It is more and more general of using industrial solid waste as the aggregates in construction materials for non-structural applications.
In the former block masonry structure applications, the practical strength less than the design strength resulted the problems of missing edge off angle and cracks in walls, which even seriously affected the quality of the engineering, so how to ensure the excellent performances of concrete small hollow blocks become one of the widespread concerned problems [8].
Therefore, the physical properties of rock chips are similar with natural sand, it is more suitable material which can replace natural sands in the practical engineering applications.

Key words: The central and southern Ningxia; Arid Area; Forestland; Eco-environmental Water Requirement
Abstract: Basing on meteorological data,vegetation distribution data,water resources condition data and so on as the background material,we calculated the minimum and appropriate eco-environment water requirement of existing forest in the central and southern Ningxia in growing season.
Bei Chu and Haosong Shang who worked in hydroscience and engineering lab in Tsinghua University researched the eco-environment water demand of vegetation through experiment in arid and semi-arid regions in the actual situation.They concluded that eco-environment water requirement coefficient of high-forest was 0.757,water requirement coefficient of shrub forest is 0.612 which is about 0.81 times of high-forest, ecological water requirement coefficient of grassland is 0.661, about 0.85 times of the high-forest.
