"Acknowledgement of the structural engineer's contribution to building design has grown enormously in recent years. Rather than being seen as a sobering influence on the creativity of architects, innovative engineers are being recognised as creators in their own right, exploring materials and structures as an integral part of the design team." "The aim of this book is to demystify the skills of the structural engineer and show both architects and engineers the remarkable results that can result from collaboration between the professions. It will appeal to any architect who wants to design better buildings, and encourage them to demand more of their engineers. It should also awaken more engineers to the ways in which they can improve the work of the architects with whom they work."--Jacket
