An engineering reference for structural building design, aimed primarily at professional designers who manage practical construction concerns. It introduces fundamental safety and physical principles, such as static equilibrium and the mechanics of internal forces like bending, shear, and tension. The manual provides comprehensive details on the application and design of primary building materials, including wood, steel, reinforced concrete, and masonry construction systems. Subsequent chapters address external considerations, such as soil conditions and foundation types, alongside methods for developing resistance to dynamic forces. Specifically, the text explains the mechanics and code requirements for bracing buildings against wind and earthquake effects using systems like shear walls and rigid frames. Finally, it integrates these topics through detailed examinations of the structural design process using various building examples.
