Structure and Architecture

Abstract

The monograph makes readers aware of the fundamental principles governing the behaviour of structural systems in architecture, providing an explanation of the theoretical basis of the static analysis of building structures, aiming to develop an understanding of the essential principles of structural behaviour and the static response of both elementary and more complex structural types. The text is organized to provide a logical sequence of chapters, consistent with the thematic structure of standard engineering disciplines. The exposition is adapted to emphasize comprehension of the nature and principles of structural behaviour, supported by numerous numerical examples and practical applications, primarily within the field of architecture.
