ABSTRACT

Auguste Fabre was a French contractor specialized in the construction of masonry vaults. He founded his company in 1896 and patented different systems of light and economic vaults, among them one for tile vaults. Fabre built thousands of vaults in France, Belgium and Algeria, some of them of great importance, such as the dome of the Petit Palais for the international exhibition in Paris in 1900, or the dome of the Congo Museum in Tervuren (Belgium). Historicism was a breeding ground for the construction of vaults, however, there is scarce technical documentation about them in the journals of the time. This paper explains the work of Auguste Fabre, his patents and some of his buildings, focusing in particular on the construction of tile vaults

摘要

奥古斯特法布尔是一位专门建造砖石拱顶的法国承包商。他于 1896 年创立了自己的公司，并为不同的轻型和经济型拱顶系统申请了专利，其中一种是用于瓷砖拱顶的。法布尔在法国、比利时和阿尔及利亚建造了数千个拱顶，其中一些非常重要，例如 1900 年在巴黎举办的国际展览小皇宫的圆顶，或位于比利时特尔夫伦的刚果博物馆的圆顶。历史主义是建造金库的温床，然而，当时的期刊中关于它们的技术文献很少。本文解释了奥古斯特·法布尔的工作、他的专利和他的一些建筑，特别关注瓷砖拱顶的建造
