Provides the ideal introduction to the quantitative language of structures: loads and reactions, moments and shears, stresses and deflections. Equipped with an insight into the relative importance of these different variables. Since its first publication in 1974, this has established itself at the forefront of introductory text for students of architecture, building and project management seeking a basic understanding of the behaviour of building structures. The new edition includes references to ultimate strength design methods, more loading conditions, and illustrated examples of the application methods described in each chapter, in major architectural works around the world.
