Architectural technologists do work related to the technical/functional aspects of building design. They must be familiar with the processes of conceptualization, design and implementation of buildings as well as the technology aspects of building design from an engineering and construction standpoint. Architectural technologists are tasked with analyzing the needs and unique facets of a building project and coming up with functional building designs in accordance with modern standards of practices of architecture, engineering and construction. Depending on the firm or the needs of specific projects, architectural technologists are often involved with the building process from the design phase through the completion of construction. 1, record 1, English, - architectural%20technologist

Underground railway systems shall achieve a high degree of importance in the cities, so the architect's role in planning and construction must be considered in a wider context in the future. A high degree of architectural quality in the appearance of an underground railway leads to its general acceptance as a means of transport.... The book... deals with the functional and spatial relation to other public areas which are connected to underground stations. It compares historical and recent examples of the subterranean architecture of metro stations in different countries by examining technical aspects and aspects of space-shaping brought in by the architects and engineers who designed the interior of the stations. 3, record 3, English, - subterranean%20architecture

En 1900 il n'y avait au monde que cinq villes qui possédaient un métro, aujourd'hui on en compte plus de 150.

L'architecture souterraine n'est pas un fait nouveau; de tout temps les hommes ont utilisé le sous-sol à des fins religieuses (tombeaux, catacombes), industrielles (mines), ou militaires. En revanche l'urbanisme souterrain reste encore une idée prospective [...] Aujourd'hui pourtant, du fait de la concentration urbaine, l'usage du sous-sol s'intensifie [...] Ce développement des espaces souterrains pose de nombreuses questions : quelles sont les fonctions urbaines susceptibles d'être enterrées? Quels surcoûts (ou économies) ces espaces engendrent-ils? Comment l'homme (usager occasionnel, ou travailleur quotidien) s'y adapte-t-il? 3, record 3, French, - architecture%20souterraine
