Building Structures





This book covers the topic of structures for buildings in a broad scope and from multiple

points of view. The primary purpose is to provide a reference for study for persons with

limited experience in the field and with interest in the general problems of design of

buildings. Presentations in the book are intended to be accessible to persons with limited

backgrounds in mathematics, science, and engineering.

The materials in this book are developed to serve two primary needs of readers. The

first is that of a text for study for courses within a collegiate program in building design.

The second is that of a study reference for preparation to take the exam for architectural

registration (ARE), as currently prepared by the National Conference of Architectural

Registration Boards (NCARB).
