SHELL STRUCTURES FOR ARCHITECTURE/

Bringing together experts from research and practice, Shell Structures for Architecture: Form Finding and Optimization presents cont emporary design methods for shell and gridshell structures, covering form-finding and structural optimization techniques. It introdu ces architecture and engineering practitioners and students to structural shells and provides computational techniques to develop co mplex curved structural surfaces, in the form of mathematics, computer algorithms, and design case studies.* Part I introduces the t opic of ...[Read more]
