The global structural analysis of buildings can be carried out following two routes. First, sophisticated and complex computer packages based on the finite element method can handle even huge structures with a great number of elements. Second, analytical methods can also deal with whole structures leading to simple closed-form solutions, with the additional benefit of providing fast checking facilities for the computer based methods. This book follows the latter route. As well as describing and solving the complex theoretical problems of bracing systems with real-world examples, the author presents simple procedures and closed-form formulae which make it possible for the practising structural engineer to carry out a general structural analysis of the bracing system of building structures in minutes. Global Structural Analysis of Buildings is a practical reference for professional civil and structural engineers in construction firms, consultancies and building research organisations. The theoretical aspects of the book will appeal to postgraduates, lecturers and researchers of structural analysis and design.
