Architecture must assimilate the scientific and technological advances that influence it, but must also be imaginative and creative. This book represents a new approach to course work in architectural structures - traditionally a program taught by engineers for engineers. It compensates for the usual failure to establish a concise relationship between architectural structure and architectural form and space; instead of simply teaching how to analyze a given system, it stimulates the development of new systems This book will interest everyone engaged in the design of buildings.
