Detailed case studies and theoretical reflections are included to help readers see how recognizing tectonics as a process can be beneficial. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is based on research that was conducted to document all changes during the building processes of a house through close engagement between the researcher and the building; the researcher was also the building’s owner, a neighbor to it, its architect, and a construction control. This close connection enabled the capture of numerous changes, some resulting in tectonic affects, while others reflected innovative approaches. These changes were introduced by various actors in the process including contractors, builders, and foremen. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eTectonics as a Process in Architecture\u003c\/i\u003e, readers will find: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvaluable insights on why tectonics is not merely as an outcome but an inclusive, collaborative process that enhances architectural quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo process maps, one for tectonic affects and one for innovative approaches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvolving changes during construction and their potential to foster innovation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA theory on procedural and inclusive tectonics, primarily focused on details\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eDue to its multifaceted nature, \u003ci\u003eTectonics as a Process in Architecture\u003c\/i\u003e will appeal to academics, students, and professionals interested in the intersection of architectural, engineering, construction and tectonic principles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eYonca Hurol\u003c\/b\u003e works in the Department of Architecture at The Cyprus International University.
