It is also necessary to provide desirable distributions of internal forces in order to achieve effective, efficient and elegant structures.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book presents four structural concepts relating to deflections and internal forces in structures. It demonstrates a number of routes and physical measures together with their implementation for creating desirable distributions of internal forces and for designing structures against deflection. Hand calculation examples, with and without using the implementation measures, are provided to quantify the effectiveness and efficiency of the structural concepts. Practical examples, including several well-known structures, are considered qualitatively to illustrate the practical implementation of the structural concepts and show their structural rationale.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is especially suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying civil engineering or architecture and should enhance the holistic comprehension of structural engineers and architects.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeatures\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDevelops the concepts from their principles through to their implementation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides worked examples in pairs and analyses real structures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEspecially suits final year undergraduates and graduate students in structural engineering\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e　\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAuthor Bio　\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDr. Tianjian Ji, CEng, FIStructE, FHEA, is Reader in Structural Engineering at the University of Manchester, UK.
