• W41888029 abstract "Unlike spoken and written theories, the constructional ‘theories’ explored in this thesis are drawnessentially from ‘practice’. While occasionally drawing upon what architects said and wrote, thethesis investigates the extent to which architects have worked out their theoretical propositionswithin the practical aspects of building, without necessarily articulating them verbally. Of therecent discussions on the relation of architectural theory to building practice, Kenneth Frampton’sStudies in Tectonic Culture (1995) stands out; but Frampton’s book is limited by his anti‐postmodernistframework, his mode of argument that largely attributes the value of architecturalworks to a theoretical dimension, his treatment of construction as a constant and passive given,and his disregard for the entirety of British architecture. This thesis criticises Studies in TectonicCulture, arguing that British architecture offers some alternatives for thinking about the dialecticsof ‘theory’ and ‘construction’. The way in which some British architects of the late 19th and early20th centuries worked – experimental, craft‐based and treating the process of construction asintegral to the process of design – indicated that for them construction was more than simply amedium through which an architect’s ideas are expressed; and out of their calculatedemployment of construction, considered in terms of ‘labour’, ‘building’, ‘material’, and‘representation’, could emerge a certain ‘implicit intellectuality’, which was no less a ‘theory’ thanverbally articulated statements existing prior to construction. It is not theory that dictatesconstruction, but rather that ‘construction’ itself can be a ‘theory’ in the process of becoming. Inopening up possibilities for thinking about constructional ‘theory’, the thesis suggests theremoval of an assumed theory/practice distinction, proposing instead ‘practice’ as essentially anindispensable body of ‘immanent theory’ as an alternative to Frampton’s theory of the Tectonic." @default.
