Synopsis

This book centres around one of the most basic of human needs - shelter. That is to say, the need to be protected from sun, wind, rain and snow. As you work through this book you will explore the fundamentals of both these areas of structural design. You will see how forces are distributed around structures and how the structures react. You will also look at aspects of the configuration of structures and in a bit more detail at the major groups of materials used in modern structures.
