Download or read book Air Structures written by Pete Silver and published by Laurence King Publishing. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Air can be used in a variety of ways to make lightweight, flexible structures. It can be used to make inflatable structures, mobile structures, and temporary buildings, it can also activate movable elements and act as a means of constructing buildings that would be impossible with conventional construction methods. This book looks at every facet of the subject, examining the different types of air structure: super pressure buildings, air beam structures, buoyant structures, inflatable structures, and many more. It also looks at the construction methods that use air, such as air-inflated steel, aerated concrete and blow moulding. Filled with photographs, models, drawings, and diagrams, this is the ideal book for curious students, designers and architects.

Book excerpt: This is a handbook for architects and structual engineers, providing the theory behind pneumatics and describing the advantages of being able to construct buildings that cover vast areas inexpensively. Major pneumatic structures throughout the world are examined, as well historical developments. Technical data is included: membrane characteristics, methods of cutting and joining, stabilisation measures, problems of transport and erection. The book contains diagrams which simplify calculations for cylindrical and sperical membranes.

Download or read book Textile Composites and Inflatable Structures written by Eugenio Oñate and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book collects state-of-the-art research and technology for design, analysis, construction and maintenance of textile and inflatable structures. Textile composites and inflatable structures have become increasingly popular for a variety of applications in OCo among many other fieldsaOCo civil engineering, architecture and aerospace engineering. Typical examples include membrane roofs and covers, sails, inflatable buildings and pavilions, airships, inflatable furniture, airspace structures etc. The book contains 18 invited contributions written by distinguished authors who participated in the International Conference on Textile Composites and Inflated Structures held in Barcelona from June 30th to July 2nd, 2003. The meeting was one of the Thematic Conferences of the European Community on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences (ECCOMAS). The different chapters discuss recent progress and future research directions in membrane and inflatable structures built with new textile composite materials. Approximately half of the book focuses on describing innovative numerical methods for structural analysis of such structures, such as new nonlinear membrane and shell finite elements. The rest of the chapters present advances in design, construction and maintenance procedures."

Download or read book Form and Forces written by Edward Allen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-09-28 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, in one volume, is all the architect needs to know to participate in the entire process of designing structures. Emphasizing bestselling author Edward Allen's graphical approach, the book enables you to quickly determine the desired form of a building or other structure and easily design it without the need for complex mathematics. This unique text teaches the whole process of structural design for architects, including selection of suitable materials, finding a suitable configuration, finding forces and size members, designing appropriate connections, and proposing a feasible method of erection. Chapters are centered on the design of a whole structure, from conception through construction planning.
