Francis D.K.Ching brings his trademark presentation to thestructural design studio with this major new work co-authored byBarry Onouye and Douglas Zuberbuhler.
Taking a new approach to strucural design, Ching and hisco-authors show how structural systems of a building -- as anintegrated assembly of elements with pattern, proportions, andscale -- are related to the essential aspects of architecturaldesign: formal and spatial composition, program fit, coordinationwith other building systems such as enclosure and mechanicalsystems, code compliance, etc.
No other work by Francis D.K. Ching brings together so manyaspects of architectural design as an integrated reference.Designers, builders, and students alike will gain a newunderstanding of structural principles and planning, without theneed for mathematics.
Using Ching's trademark presentation, Structural Patternsis illustrated throughout with line drawings to present theessential presence of structural systems in buildings, but alsohelps the reader make informed decisions for architecturaldesign.
