Conceptual Structural Design engineers addresses a topic that lies
on the intersection of architecture and structural engineering.
Within a building project, conceptual structural design and how
successfully it has been dealt with, impacts both building
performance as well as building appearance. Whilst engineers and
architects are both educated in different fields, the most
rewarding projects are where their shared expertise can be utilised
in full. This book illustrates how these two professions can be
bridged. In the first half, it details the theory and investigates
sources of inspiration for developing structural form including
what we can learn from natural forms, using intuition, finding
inspiration from precedents, applying understanding of structural
principles, utilising physical models for design, and using new
design tools, construction methods, emerging technology and
materials to develop new structural forms. The second part presents
real life case studies showing projects in context and examples of
best practice. Reflective of the changing times in which we live,
this book shows. This fully updated third edition of Conceptual
Structural Design is essential reading for architects and
engineers, and for anyone interested in conceptual structural
design.
