AAT | Appropriate Architecture Technology lectures
What is Appropriate Building / Architecture Technology
Appropriate building/architecture technology’s ABT theory 6 rules: Small-scale, Decentralized, Labour-intensive, Energy efficient, Environmentally sound/friendly, Locally autonomous. Theory of ABT origin. Wide range of ABT fields. ABT predecessors. At as umbrella term. ABT practitioners in recent history and contemporary emerging practices. ABT movements.
Appropriate indigenous type of balanced programs
Inventive programs which contributes to balanced progress to autochthonous environment to which they belong.
Timeless shelters 777 are sustainable examples how to programmatically and architecturally intervene with future advanced-care spatial development of different landscapes throughout Ethiopia. Few examples according GIS specifics of landscape with the name of inspirational flora/fauna design object: Botany research center Moringa | moringa oleifera, Protection station for invasive weed ‘emboch’ | salvinia natans, Generating station for water from volcano heat | artemisia sieberi besser, Avocado plantage | persea Americana, Goba Bale mountains Bamboo production & design center | yushania alpine, Lalibela Water sanitation and enery generator | citrus sinensis.
Program processes modelling PPM
The method is invented by D. Batista PhD.
It is about program processes making diagrams, establishing spatial difference and organisational hierarchy for 7 people (job position or ...), 7 animals (names common and scientific, mark wild or domestic), 7 plants (names common and scientific, mark wild or domestic. Establishing a conceptual foundation for specific approved program with TITLE in time cycles: 1 day, 1 month, 1 year. Merging processes; Simulation of merging process on models digital/virtual or material/real.
Micro element modelling MEM
The method is invented by D. Batista PhD.
It is about invention of micro element with scanning the pattern from micro structure, doing the abstraction of structural & molecular biology, doing the transfer into digital/virtual or material/real model with processes, of pattern-ism, abstraction and fabrication.
Smart sustainable eco structures
