Building Structures Illustrated [EPUB ebook] 
Patterns, Systems, and Design

Apoio

A new edition of Francis D.K. Ching’s illustrated guide to
structural design
Structures are an essential element of the building process, yet
one of the most difficult concepts for architects to grasp. While
structural engineers do the detailed consulting work for a project,
architects should have enough knowledge of structural theory and
analysis to design a building. Building Structures
Illustrated takes a new approach to structural design, showing
how structural systems of a building–such as an integrated
assembly of elements with pattern, proportions, and scale–are
related to the fundamental aspects of architectural design. The
book features a one-stop guide to structural design in practice, a
thorough treatment of structural design as part of the entire
building process, and an overview of the historical development of
architectural materails and structure. Illustrated throughout with
Ching’s signature line drawings, this new Second Edition is
an ideal guide to structures for designers, builders, and
students.
* Updated to include new information on building code compliance,
additional learning resources, and a new glossary of terms
* Offers thorough coverage of formal and spatial composition,
program fit, coordination with other building systems, code
compliance, and much more
* Beautifully illustrated by the renowned Francis D.K. Ching
Building Structures Illustrated, Second Edition is the
ideal resource for students and professionals who want to make
informed decisions on architectural design.
