Principles of Structures Summary

Principles of Structures by Ariel Hanaor (The Technion, Israel Institute of Technology)

Both architectural students and civil engineering students need an intrinsic grasp of structures, but existing texts on structural theory are too mathematical for architectural students and many civil engineering students would benefit from an introduction to basic principles.

This book provides a highly visual approach to explain structural concepts to these two audiences.
