This is a secured pdf file. Structures not only support gravity and other loads, but are essential to define form and space. To design structures in synergy with form and space requires creativity and an informed intuition of structural principles. The objective of this book is to introduce the principles as foundation of creative design and demonstrate successful application on many case studies from around the world. Richly illustrated, the book clarifies complex concepts without calculus yet also provides a more profound understanding for readers with an advanced background in mathematics. The book also includes structural details in wood, steel, masonry, concrete, and fabric to facilitate design of structures that are effective and elegant. Many graphs streamline complex tasks like column buckling or design for wind and seismic forces. The graphs also visualize critical issues and correlate US with metric SI units of measurement. These features make the book useful as reference book for professional architects and civil engineers as well as a text book for architectural and engineering education.

dear friend
if any one having the following papers pllz upload

I'm reading about confinement in concrete.
And I don't understand about Ke in Mander Model
If anyone has this paper, please share to me.
Thanks a lot.
Mander, J.B., M.J.N. Priestley, and R. Park 1984. Theoretical Stress-Strain Model for Confined Concrete. Journal of Struc-tural Engineering. ASCE. 114(3). 1804-1826.
In SAP2000 when a steel material is defined, in "other properties for steel materials", SAP2000 requires minimum yield and tensile stress (ok) and "effective" values for yield and tensile stress, someone could explain me what are this "effective" values.
Product Description:
A review of available experimental data on the behaviour of concrete at both the material and structural levels reveals the unavoidable development of triaxial stress conditions prior to failure which dictate the collapse and ductility of structural concrete members; moreover - and in contrast with widely-accepted tenets - it can be shown that the post peak-stress behaviour of concrete as a material is realistically described by a complete and immediate loss of load-carrying capacity. Therefore, rational analysis and design of concrete components in accordance with the currently-prevailing limit-state philosophy requires the use of triaxial material data consistent with the notion of a fully-brittle material, and such an approach is implemented in this book by outlining a finite-element for the prediction of the strength, deformation, and cracking patterns of arbitrary structural forms encompassing plain, reinforced, and prestressed concrete members." Structural concrete: Finite-Element Analysis for Limit-State Design" contains numerous worked examples which show both the unifying generality of the proposed approach and the reliability of the ensuing computer package for which the sole input is the specified cylinder strength of concrete and the yield stress of steel. This book not only offers a better phenomenological understanding of structural concrete behaviour but also illustrates, by means of suitable examples, the type of revision required for improving design methods in terms of both safety and economy.

Does anybody have any experience with the MSC Patran neutral file format. I would like to write a program to take the output from my frame analysis program and convert it to a *.out file to import into Patran. My problem is that there a no resources out there at all for working with this format.
Hello,
I need an example or calcul note for machnies foundations.
Vibrations + shear.
I have the book "handbook of Machines foundation" this is very general.
