Description
México: Construcción, 1945. (weak hinges, marginal wear in covers, some foxing, not affecting text or plates). b/w plates, drawings, plans, measured plans, elevations, tables, graphs, advertisements, illustrated wrappers. This periodical is virtually unknown and does not appear in the National Library of Mexico, or UNAM or OCLC. The contributors were leaders in post WWII an integrated movement of architecture, engineering and planning to build a modern Mexico. Despite the technical sounding title of the magazine, the interest was in achieving a broader integration of architecture, urban planning, construction and art and thus "Construction" was born along with the words "decoration, art and industry in the title. Many of the contributors to the magazine were part of the planning and construction of the University Nacional Autonóma de Mexico and generally in post-WWII urban planning and influenced modernity in architecture. Alberto Dovalí Jaime pioneering work with reinforced concrete led the way to the boom of buildings and public structures that used that material. Architect Carlos Lazo Barreiro (Mexico City 1914-1955) was a founder in 1943 of the magazine "Construcción". Engineer Alberto Dovalí Jaime, the Mexican pioneer of reinforced concrete (RC) in Mexico was also one of the founders. Engineers Dovalí Jaime (Secretary of Communications) and Vicente Guerrero and Gama designed the first prestressed concrete bridge in Mexico, over the Santa Catarina River, in Monterrey. General director was Almiro P. (Pérez) Moratinos from UNAM. The magazine documents planning and architecture in states outside of Mexico indicating a national viewpoint. The The sections of the magazine included with some variations: Temas Generales Ingenieria, Matematicas, Planificacion, Arquitectura, Arqueologia, Seccion Industrial, Arte, Decoracion and each issue contains robust contributions. The archaeology sections included information on what could be considered patrimonial, such as colonial churches One of the only references to this publication: "Bajo una línea parecida, surgió en 1943 "Construcción, revista de ingeniería, arquitectura, arte, decoración e industria". El apartado que se dedicó a urbanismo estuvo a cargo de Carlos Lazo, y a pesar del enfoque técnico de la revista, destaco el interés por lograr una integración más amplia. Lejos de los debates surgidos en la primera revista de principios de siglo -El Arte y la Ciencia- cuando las carreras de ingeniería y arquitectura se disputaban sus alcances, la revista "Construcción" nació insólitamente junto a las palabras "decoración, arte e industria" (Canales González, Ana Fernanda.
