Synopsis:
Comprehensive and flexible, this book offers single-volume coverage of all major topics in structural analysis and design—with particular focus on structural behavior and design issues. It begins with a self-contained, non-mathematical overview of the fundamental concepts of analysis and design, and then examines, individually, the common structural types used in buildings (e.g., trusses, beams, arches/cables)—discussing each in terms of both qualitative and quantitative analysis and then design methods—all illustrated with example analyses of real structures. A unique discussion of the logic of structural design as a part of the larger building design process concludes this treatment. A resource for engineering and architecture students.
From the Back Cover:
New to this fourth edition:
- Additional worked-out example problems and solutions, plus new and improved illustrations, help clarify some of the more complex concepts.
- A CD in the back of the book contains digitized images and illustrations from the book coupled with additional exercises. This visual experience reinforces the ideas in the text.
- Design methods for steel, wood, and prestressed concrete are outlined; with complete worked examples of each. This breadth of coverage allows readers to apply concepts to a wide variety of buildings.
