Prototype Building Structures
1999,
925 pages
$428.00
This important reference work provides a comprehensive examination of prototype buildings. The author's detailed evaluation of existing structures will give insights on building maintenance and pave the way for the future design and construction of similar structures. The examination of the numerical and design issues associated with prototype building structures will reduce the effort and expense involved in future building. Prototype Building Structures considers the following topics: types of building structures; wind effects on buildings; the impact of earthquakes on buildings; the effects of explosions on buildings; the stability problems of buildings; and the effect of fire on buildings. Each section contains numerous analytical and design examples drawn from existing structures worldwide, considering international building codes, and the application of new codes, such as Eurocodes, is discussed in detail. The book includes an extensive bibliography as well as a large appendix that covers background analysis computer subroutines. Prototype Building Structures will provide invaluable guidance for researchers, practicing engineers, designers, technologists, mathematicians and specialists in computer-aided techniques of building construction.
