Understanding structures is core to the education of the professional architect and engineer. Using three-dimensional computer generated models, animations, audio narration, and interactive quizzes, this unique product explains the fundamentals of structural behavior and analysis in an easy-to-understand manner. Interactive Structures utilizes a multi-media format that permits users to draw a direct relationship between structural analysis theory and its practical application within existing buildings. This approach is better suited to the skills, disposition and learning needs of architecture, non-engineering and entry-level engineering students. New to this version are the addition of metric measurements and upgraded functionality of quizzes and exercises. Twenty-four building structures designed by renowned architects are also modeled to show the variety of structural types and behavior.

As the environmental impact of buildings become increasingly recognized, the role of building designers and the initial decision making process that determines materials, systems, and construction processes becomes more critical. This timely book addresses sustainability in building design through a series of examples presented as three dimensional models of well integrated building systems. The book organizes buildings into three sections – structure, envelope, and mechanical systems – based on the integration of paired building systems. The book demonstrates the performance of each systems pair in terms of interaction and contribution of each individual system and the synergetic benefits resulting from the unique pairing. The last section of the book is devoted to buildings that have a higher degree of integration and cannot be studied as paired systems. Each building is illustrated with full graphical display, text and analytical drawing to demonstrate its performance in a particular environment.
