Elementary Structural Analysis and Design of Buildings: A Guide for Practicing E

Description: Elementary Structural Analysis and Design of Buildings by Dominick Pilla This runs from basic principles and elementary structural analysis to the selection of structural systems and materials, and on to foundations and retaining structures, with a variety of approaches and methodologies, and realistic design examples. It is especially useful for the NCEES SE exam. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This overview of the analysis and design of buildings runs from basic principles and elementary structural analysis to the selection of structural systems and materials, and on to foundations and retaining structures. It presents a variety of approaches and methodologies while featuring realistic design examples. As a comprehensive guide and desk reference for practicing structural and civil engineers, and for engineering students, it draws on the authors teaching experience at The City College of New York and his work as a design engineer and architect. It is especially useful for those taking the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying SE exam. Author Biography Dominick Pilla is an engineer and architect, in both private practice and as an Associate Professor in the School of Architecture at The City College of New York, USA.
