Download or read book Metal Architecture written by Burkhard Fröhlich and published by Birkhauser. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In cooperation with the DBZ, The advantages of using metal in architecture are rediscovered. In recent years metal as a construction material has been experiencing a renaissance. Its diverse qualities and versatility mean that it is an ideal material for many different applications. Gone are the days when metal was only used for the roofing and facades of industrial sheds. In the meantime architecture and industry have discovered its aesthetic qualities, using it to cover theatres, museums, and exhibition buildings with shimmering layers of copper and titanium. It enables extravagant forms to be constructed, and even in low-cost, prefabricated buildings, metal can be used in new and interesting ways. It has become an integral factor in creating intelligent architectural solutions which meet the requirements of clients, investors and architects. "Metal Architecture" documents some 21 international projects which show not only the creative elements but also the economic advantages of metal. Of particular note,are the Drive-Inn Restaurant in Slovenia, loft apartments in Los Angeles, and the harbour control tower in Lisbon. The buildings are presented with numerous colour illustrations and detailed plans. The book concludes with technical information on the uses of metal in construction, practical details and tips on using metal in planning and construction.

Download or read book Design of Steel Structures written by Libin Wang and published by . This book was released on 2018-06 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural design is the methodical investigation of the stability, strength and rigidity of structures. The basic purpose in structural analysis and design is to create a structure capable of resisting all functional loads without failure through its anticipated life. The primary purpose of a structure is to transmit or support loads. If the structure is improperly designed or fabricated, or if the actual applied loads exceed the design specifications, the device will probably fail to perform its intended function, with possible serious consequences. Steel exhibits desirable physical properties that make it one of the most versatile structural materials in use. Its great strength, uniformity, light weight, ease of use, and many other desirable properties makes it the material of choice for numerous structures such as steel bridges, high rise buildings, towers, and other structures. Nevertheless, in the future emerging situation, the entire steel chain, i.e. the producer, client, designer, fabricator and contractor should be able to interact with each other and improve their efficiency and productivity for the success of the project involving structural steelwork. Hence it becomes imperative that structural designers also must acquaint themselves with all the aspects of the structural steel work including the "fabrication and erection," and that is the subject matter of the present book to deliver good fabrication and erection practices. Design Of Steel Structures is intended to present the latest developments in the field of Architectural Designing, Interior Designing and Steel Industry and aims to cover most complete and reliable source of information on the discoveries and current developments in this field. Coverage encompasses such topics as stability, fatigue, non-linear behavior, dynamics, reliability, fire, design codes, and much more. This book deals with the design, construction, maintenance, and application of science and engineering principles to improve the steel materials. This book serves as valuable guide not only for researchers, but also practicing engineers and students.

Download or read book Design of Steel Structures written by Elias G. Abu-Saba and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-10-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended for classroom teaching in architectural and civil engineering at the graduate and undergraduate levels. Although it has been developed from lecture notes given in structural steel design, it can be useful to practicing engineers. Many of the examples presented in this book are drawn from the field of design of structures. Design of Steel Structures can be used for one or two semesters of three hours each on the undergraduate level. For a two-semester curriculum, Chapters 1 through 8 can be used during the first semester. Heavy emphasis should be placed on Chapters 1 through 5, giving the student a brief exposure to the consideration of wind and earthquakes in the design of buildings. With the new federal requirements vis a vis wind and earthquake hazards, it is beneficial to the student to have some under standing of the underlying concepts in this field. In addition to the class lectures, the instructor should require the student to submit a term project that includes the complete structural design of a multi-story building using standard design procedures as specified by AISC Specifications. Thus, the use of the AISC Steel Construction Manual is a must in teaching this course. In the second semester, Chapters 9 through 13 should be covered. At the undergraduate level, Chapters 11 through 13 should be used on a limited basis, leaving the student more time to concentrate on composite construction and built-up girders.
