To design structures in synergy with form and space requires creativity and informed intuition of structural principles. The objective of \u003cem\u003eStructure and Design\u003c\/em\u003e is to introduce structural principles as the foundation of creative design and demonstrate successful application through many case studies. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Using rich illustrations, \u003cem\u003eStructure and Design\u003c\/em\u003e clarifies complex concepts without calculus and provides greater insight for readers with mathematics background. It includes details in wood, steel, concrete, masonry, and fabric and contains graphs that streamline complex tasks, such as column buckling and design for wind and seismic forces. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eStructure and Design\u003c\/em\u003e is a reference book for design studios, architects, civil engineers, and builders and an excellent text for courses relating to those fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eG G Schierle\u003c\/strong\u003e holds Ph.D. and master of architecture degrees from the University of California, Berkeley and a Dipl-Ing degree from Stuttgart University of Applied Sciences.
