Francis D. K. Ching et al.: Architectural Structure Diagrams

The history of architecture can be summed up in the history of the material and the structure built on it. The architecture's ‘ structure ’ plays an essential role in supporting the load of buildings. The structure is also essential to defining the form of the structure and the space within it. For structure design that is integrated with form and space, intuitive understanding of structural principles is essential. The design or work of architects who follow only creativity without structural basis is one of the most important things in sand that comes from the white sands at low tide. The appropriate structural material, the selection of the connection, the size and deformation of the network, and the understanding of the movement of the structural component in various conditions of the lower hand are very important and essential for the architect. The book focuses on establishing and mastering the system-based structure of architecture. The biggest feature of the book is the whole approach to structure. The text begins with a brief review of how structure systems evolved over time, explaining how the concept of structural patterns, support patterns and long-term patterns can support and reinforce creative architectural ideas. The book is intended to avoid a strict mathematical approach to structure. But it's easy to explain complex concepts without the calculation, and so it is expected that readers with mathematical basic knowledge will gain deeper insight. And they're going to give us a lot of drawings and diagrams to try and figure out how structural patterns can affect design concepts.
