Bendik Manum
About
Bendik Manum is architect and civil engineer by education and professional practices and holds a PhD from AHO, Oslo School of Architecture and Design.
A key element in his work has been structural mechanics for architects, ranging from teaching theory and supervising at design studios to conducting research on loadbearing structures in architecture, paying particular attention to teaching merging the scholarly and professional practices of architecture and structural engineering. Over the years, this has resulted in several interesting works by students to be built in real and uniting architectural and structural design. During recent years, fruitful collaboration between architecture and engineering at NTNU has been carried out by a Minor in Architecture as a part of Masters degree in civil engineering at NTNU, structural engineering in particular.
Besides this, Bendik Manum has for a long time been involved in research on spatial morphology, during recent years in the research project FME-ZEN (Zero Emission Neighbourhoods) working on modelling and analyses of topological properties of urban space. Based on GIS-based models of street-networks, topography, population, land-use and building-layouts, various measures of density, accessibility and proximity are developed, measures that according to research are decisive for sustainable urban development. The studies have identified spatial indicators mapping potentials for urban environment to be attractive places to live and work and where daily life is handled by sustainable modes of transport. The latter implies paying particular attention to walkability and bikeability. The spatial indicators are useful for comparing likely effects of alternative urban development proposals. The studies include visualization-methods making the results easily accessible for multiple disciplines working on planning and design on neighborhood and city-scale.
Becoming increasingly concerned by the degree of "greenwashing" at all levels from overall governmental politics to common daily practice of planning and construction, Bendik Manum currently use his "scholarly sabbatical"/ "research-leave" to study how to think of nature when we as architects, planners and engineers evaluate impact on nature from what we plan, design and build. Key references for these studies are Western environmental philospohy as elaborated by Arne Næss, Japanese philosophy linked to the so called Kyoto-school (Kitaro Nishida, Testuro Watsuji and Kinji Imanishi), and the branch of contempory philosohy termed "o-o-o", objecty-oriented onthology (Timothy Morton, Graham Harman). The research leaves are carried out as a series of research stays in Japan.
