post-retirement, non-western projects. The museum at Suzhou
evokes the timber framing and calm serenity of Buddhist
temples while the dense stone mass of Doha's Museum of
Islamic Art sits somewhere between Ancient Egypt, Byzantium
and modernist Baghdad. Is the latter an attempt to address a
non-western culture, to forge a new language? "I suppose you
could call [Doha] something in the middle, a 'rniddle-Eastern'
building," Pei laughs a boyish giggle that makes him appear
oddly ageless. What is dominant in the works of I.M. Pei? a. Use

You can clearly see the imprint made by the formwork left on the
concrete as it hardens. Who pioneered the use of beton brut? a.
Auguste Perret c. Alison and Peter Smithson b. Le Corbusier d. Frank
Lloyd Wright Note: This is very tricky. It was Le Corbusier who
popularized its use and called the poured "board-marked" concrete
that he used in many of his buildings as "beton brut." But, his mentor
and former employer, Auguste Perret has been using it for some time.
Obviously, Auguste Perret was overshadowed by his more media savvy
employee, tte Corbusier. Thus, if any of the two appears in the
choices, that is the answer. If both appears, then read the question
carefully. If it is "pioneered," answer is Auguste Perret. If it is
"popularized" or "coined," answer is Le Corbusier. 73. During the
1920's, Le Corbusier was known for promoting this Architectural Style.

218. What was the foremost reason for the development of the

just wanted taller buildings Prior to the late 19th century, the weight
of a multistory building had to be supported principally by the
strength of its walls. The taller the building, the more strain this
placed on the lower sections of the building; since there were clear
engineering limits to the weight such "load-bearing" walls could
sustain, large designs meant massively thick walls on the ground
fl oors, and defi nite limits on the building's height. The development
of cheap, versatile steel in the second half of the 19th century
changed those rules. America was in the midst of rapid social and
economic growth that made for great opportunities in architectural
design. A much more urbanized society was forming and the society
called out for new, larger buildings. The mass production of steel was
the main driving force behind the ability to build skyscrapers during
the mid-1880s. The people in Midwestern America felt less social
pressure to conform to the ways and styles of the architectural past.
