This major survey of structural design supplies the fundamental information for architects and builders to establish the structural concept for a building and deal with structural issues. Using diagrams, models, computer simulations, case studies, and exercises, the book weaves together a comprehensive narrative that makes selecting and giving shape to structures and structural elements understandable.

In addition to a common-sense understanding of the principles and issues involved, the complexity of the design process and analytic methods, readers also learn the vocabulary necessary to effectively work with a structural engineer. A companion CD-ROM includes computer simulations and demonstration versions of spreadsheet programs and a structural analysis program, so that the designer can learn how to efficiently collaborate with the project team. 720 pp.
