Structure for Architects: A Case Study in Steel, Wood, and Reinforced Concrete Design, 1st Edition, is a textbook that introduces structural design theory and practice through an accessible conceptual approach. Serving as a sequel to Structure for Architects: A Primer, the volume explains fundamental engineering principles in straightforward terms.
The core of the text centers on a single case study of a diagrammatic frame building examined across steel, wood, and reinforced concrete. Through this unified model, the work illustrates the overall process of structural design from initial layout to component selection.
Written for architecture students and practicing professionals, the book addresses the frequent disparity in how architects and engineers process information. It connects the visual concepts emphasized in architectural practice with the technical aspects required in structural engineering.
