|a This book uses the basic conditions of statics to show readers how to understand and create elegant, highly efficient forms for suspended and cable-stayed structures, arches, trusses, and shells. It offers a contextual understanding of the natural flow of forces and shows how to calculate the stresses of various forms using both numerical and graphical techniques. Throughout the book, the authors inspire their readers by analyzing and illustrating in detail the simple, powerful design techniques of the world's great engineers and architects. It is an innovative, highly visual book that can be used for the "statics" portion of the mandatory structures sequence in the architecture curriculum
