Since January 1, 2023, the ATE laboratory has changed management.

François FLEURY, HDR professor, was elected director of the laboratory for a two-year term at an extraordinary General Assembly of the laboratory in December 2022.

François FLEURY succeeds Caroline MANIAQUE who has been in charge of the laboratory for 3 mandates. These terms were particularly decisive for the structuring and development of the laboratory and of the scientific activity of ATE. Caroline MANIAQUE has in particular led the "Research Culture" and "Outside the walls" seminars, which have allowed the laboratory and the school to have convivial as well as scientific moments. Caroline MANIAQUE has also coordinated the HCERES 2016-2020 evaluation campaign of ATE for which the scientific dynamism of this young research unit has been underlined.

François FLEURY, by taking over the direction of ATE, wishes to continue the dynamics set up by Caroline MANIAQUE by helping to valorize the commitments and the work of the researchers and by working on the improvement of the conditions of research to represent the laboratory at various levels, from the school to the ministry, via the university or other regional, national or even international authorities.

Contributions to the 3rd days of the Doctoral School 556 - HSRT

On Thursday, March 25, 2021, the third conference of Doctoral School 556 HSRT (Human Societies Risks Territory) was held atENSA Normandie. Co-organized by doctoral students from ED 556, these meetings offer young researchers in the humanities and social sciences the opportunity to showcase their work.

On this occasion, communications from various disciplines met around the notion of "HABITATE" which, as Caroline Maniaque reminds us in the preface of this brochure, "from philosophy to geography, from anthropology to architecture, passing through urbanism or history, crosses the social and human sciences and meets some of the major debates of our contemporary life".

The proceedings of this JED, coordinated by doctoral students, bring together 14 contributions. The brochure highlights the contribution ofENSA Normandie the ATE laboratory to postgraduate education.

Potential of Contemporary Architecture

Carole Lemans

This doctoral thesis in architecture focuses on the potential of the "reed" resource in contemporary architecture, taking into account both the issues related to the sector and its actors, the constructive and performance dimensions, and the possible registers of expression.

Firstly, the potential of contemporary thatched architecture is examined in relation to the distance from traditional thatched roofing forms and techniques. This is followed by a theoretical evaluation of the limits and potentials of the material today, built notably by observation of the Dutch context. These elements are then confronted with a set of contemporary realizations, apprehended on the one hand according to the morphological analysis of an extended corpus, and on the other hand through a more restricted number of case studies and the discourses which accompany them. The assumption that contemporary thatch architecture is ecological is only partially correct. The realization of its potential actually requires certain conditions to be ecologically effective.

The second part of this thesis is deliberately prospective and proposes to study through experimentation the potential of reed architecture, and no longer thatch: can we make this material more ecological? It presents three project situations seeking to innovate with reed, two of which are specifically developed within the framework of the thesis. With another level of reading on these experiments, we observe the influence of the level of knowledge, concerning the reed and the thatch technique, on the performance of the design process.

The thesis observes and documents more than a hundred buildings from the year 2000 to 2021. The field of study, mainly focused on France, also extends to Europe and to a lesser extent to Japan, where the climate is more or less similar to the French climate. To another extent, the current French thatching industry being little documented, the field investigation by learning the practice of thatching constitutes an important part of the knowledge contribution.
important part of the knowledge contribution, leading today to the constitution of a network of actors of the reed.
