Beskrivning

Structures for Architects: Planning, Analysis and Design explains the basics of structural systems to help architects conceive the structural form and analyze and design in a comprehensive manner. The objective is not to explain the structural analysis and design of complex systems in detail, but to explain analysis and design of structural members in a simple and elementary approach. Presenting basic concepts in a simple manner, the book deals with the presentation of structural systems used in the construction of public buildings. Architectural design, urban planning guidelines, basic rules of fire safety, and earthquake resistant design are discussed in a conceptual manner. Examples included throughout the book shall help students, faculty, and practicing architects to understand structural analysis and design in a straightforward manner, and exercise problems are presented to aid in the understanding of the contents presented. This book serves as a useful reference material for both academicians and practicing professionals.
