Today, the web of structural mechanics is so finely woven that it hides the role of experience in design, leading to high levels of risk. An exploration of essential design and construction details of safe structures, this book explains how buildings and bridges resist gravity, wind, and earthquake loads. Employing an interactive presentation of topics, it spans elementary concepts, from force in trusses to bending of beams and the response of multi-story, multi-bay frames. Because simulation is critical to the design and construction of safe structures, this book features free access to GOYA software, which runs easily on JAVA-enabled systems. Developed by the authors to improve understanding of structures through repetition, GOYA enables readers to solve problems of increasing complexity with relative ease, thereby expediting the process of safe structure design.
