Virtual Reality and the Built Environment, by Jennifer Whyte
Architectural Press | October 8, 2002 | English | ISBN: 0750653728 | PDF | 165 Pages | 5,78 Mb

Description : As this book shows, rather than leading to uniform processes and standard design practices, these tools are being used in many divergent ways across different segments of the design community. There are expectations of further technological refinement and cost reduction, and this is likely to stimulate more widespread use in future. This book provides a thought-provoking and practical guide to how design organizations – large and small – might benefit by engaging with these new technologies of design. It illustrates the excitement of designing in a multimedia environment and creates a real sense of how we might integrate different parts of the processes of design, production and management to provide better buildings.

Masonry Structural Design

Richard Klingner, "Masonry Structural Design"
McGraw-Hill Professional | 2010 | ISBN: 007163830X | 588 pages | PDF | 10,3 MB


A Complete Guide to Masonry Materials and Structural Design

Written by the former chair of the Masonry Standards Joint Committee (MSJC), this authoritative volume covers the design of masonry structures using the 2009 International Building Code and the 2008 MSJC Code and Specification.

Masonry Structural Design emphasizes the strength design of masonry and includes allowable-stress provisions. Innovations such as autoclaved aerated concrete masonry (AAC) are also discussed. Real-world case studies featuring a low-rise building with reinforced concrete masonry and a four-story building with clay masonry illustrate the techniques presented in this comprehensive resource.

Coverage includes:

•Basic structural behavior and design of low-rise, bearing wall buildings
•Materials used in masonry construction
•Code basis for structural design of masonry buildings, including seismic design
•Introduction of MSJC treatment of structural design
•Strength design of reinforced and unreinforced masonry elements
•Allowable-stress design of reinforced and unreinforced masonry elements
•Comparison of design by the allowable-stress approach versus the strength approach
•Lateral load analysis of shear wall structure
•Design and detailing of floor and roof diaphragms
