Description

The branch of engineering which focuses on the design and analysis of structures that support or resist loads is known as structural engineering. The theory of structural engineering is based on the laws of applied physics and the empirical knowledge of structural performance of different materials and geometries. There are various specializations within this field such as earthquake engineering structures, mechanical structures, aerospace structures, and civil engineering structures. Earthquake engineering structures deal with the construction of structures which are specially engineered to withstand earthquakes. Some of the numerous elements, used in structural engineering are arches, columns, shells, beams and plates. This book brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the unexplored aspects of structural engineering. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for graduate and postgraduate students. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
