Description

The comprehensive reference on the basics of structural analysis and design, now updated with the latest considerations of building technology Structural design is an essential element of the building process, yet one of the most difficult to learn. While structural engineers do the detailed consulting work for a building project, architects need to know enough structural theory and analysis to design a building. Most texts on structures for architects focus narrowly on the mathematical analysis of isolated structural components, yet Building Structures looks at the general concepts with selected computations to understand the role of the structure as a building subsystem—without the complicated mathematics. New to this edition is a complete discussion of the LRFD method of design, supplemented by the ASD method, in addition to: The fundamentals of structural analysis and design for architects A glossary, exercise problems, and a companion website and instructor’s manual Material ideally suited for preparing for the ARE exam Profusely illustrated throughout with drawings and photographs, and including new case studies, Building Structures, Third Edition is perfect for nonengineers to understand and visualize structural design.

Description

Building Structures 3E is the reference of choice for architects studying contemporary issues and design practices for building structures. This highly readable reference takes a conceptual approach without complicated mathematics. Looking at the role of the structure as a building subsystem, Building Structures offers the fundamentals of computational methods for design of wood, steel, and reinforced concrete structures.  New to this edition is a complete discussion of the LRFD method of design, supplemented by the ASD method. The impact of sustainable construction and its effect on choices for structures is discussed, as well as the use of BIM and other computer-aided design processes for structural design. Profusely illustrated throughout with drawnigs and photographs, and including new case studies, Building Structures 3E is perfect for non-engineers to undertand and visualize structural design.
