Manual of Structural Design: Structural Principles - Suitable Spans - Inspiring WorksPaperback, 7 July 2022

Decisions regarding the supporting structure have an
influence on the design of a building as well as an economic and
ecological impact. The creation of great and innovative buildings
requires close collaboration of architects, clients and structural
engineers. Modern structural systems can benefit from an appropriate
combination of various building materials. The "Atlas Tragwerke"
(Support Structure Atlas) goes beyond material confines and showcases
suitable construction principles for different building tasks. Classical
masterpieces and outstanding current projects are used to demonstrate
the potentials of structural systems for various building tasks and
consider alternatives. Easy-to-compare structural principles offer a
basis for a common level of communication in an interdisciplinary
planning process.
