Paul Cottancin (12 January 1865 - 1928) was a French engineer and a pioneer in the use of reinforced brickwork and concrete. He is known for the church of Saint-Jean-de-Montmartre in Paris, which he designed in collaboration with the architect Anatole de Baudot. ==Life== Paul Cottancin was born in Reims in 1865. He studied engineering at the École centrale des arts et manufactures. He received a diploma from the École Centrale in 1886, and filed his first patent in March 1889 for a type of metal frame for reinforced cement or other reinforced materials. He subsequently moved to England and then to Ireland. He worked as a contractor and a consultant, and also as engineer for his own structures. He filed a series of patents up to 1900 as he refined his reinforced concrete system. Paul Cottancin died in 1928. He has been seen as having considerably more artistic sensitivity than was common with engineers of his day. He thought of his structures in terms of surfaces and forms. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paul Cottancin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
