A Study On The Forms And Realization Methods Of Mobile Architecture

Today in continuously emerging circumstances of architectural forms, mobile architecture, which has existed since ancient times, still keeps the lasting vitality and maintains its place in architectural field with its outstanding flexibility. With the fast development of architecture techniques in recent decades, the artificial crafts of the mobile constructions are becoming more and more mature and have been showing its unordinary adaptability. With its amazing highly precise crafts, the mobile architecture has brought up a lot of classics in architecture history. With the persuasive concepts of sustainable development and human-oriented idea, the mobile architecture has been further showing its fascination and superiority. An increasing number of architects have been paying close attention and devoted themselves to the research and practice of the mobile architecture.All things contain contradictory in Dialectics theory; so is true to architectural design because it's also a process of constantly discovering and reconciling contradictories. When the inconsistent factors can not be reconciled in traditional architectural forms, mobile architecture forms may be as workable solution. The contradictories differ in various kinds of architecture forms, and so does the methods to solve them. This paper classifies the mobile forms into gymnasiums, stadiums, houses, bridges, science and art museums as well as other exhibition museums and analyzes each of them. Existing movable forms of various architectures are summarized and evaluated one by one, and the optimization of each mobile mode is also explored.Mobile architecture differs from other architecture forms in its wonderful flexibility as of organism, the study of mobile architecture is helpful for people to master its applied mechanism, and is somewhat meaningful to direct practical work. In this study, transformable modes of mobile architecture are explained and analyzed in ascending level from simplicity to complexity. Those expressive but comparatively complicated structural modes are reduced into comprehensible ones so that the mechanism of architecture is more understandable and intuitionist.Lastly, several kinds of comparatively novel designs about mobile architecture are introduced. The prospect of research and direction of development are also analyzed tentatively.
