This chapter deals with the residues of a Bruhat-Tits building whose building at infinity is an exceptional quadrangle. It begins with the remark that if Λ is an arbitrary quadratic space of type Eℓ for ℓ = 6, 7 or 8 or of typeF₄ over a field K that is complete with respect to a discrete valuation, and if in the F4-case the subfield F is closed with respect to this valuation and if Δ is the corresponding Moufang quadrangle of type Eℓ or F₄, then there always exists a unique affine building Ξ such that Δ is the building at infinity of Ξ with respect to its complete system of apartments. The chapter also considers the standard embedding of the apartment A in the Euclidean plane which takes the intersection of A and R to the set of eight triangles containing the origin. Finally, it describes a Moufang polygon with two root group sequences.
Keywords: discrete valuation, Bruhat-Tits building, exceptional quadrangle, quadratic space, Moufang quadrangle, apartment, Euclidean plane, Moufang polygon, root group sequence, affine building
