Reviews
This book is a very well presented empirical method of structural design. Written for an international readership, the book covers the rudiments of empirical design quite effectively. Commencing with a very rich glossary of relevant words, the empirical rules proposed in the book are then laid out in a simple logical manner over the next ten chapters of the book. Covering key structural elements and components such as: arches, walls, columns, beams, trusses, floor/roofing systems, foundations, connections, lateral systems and building structural system designs; the book explains the empirical design process through a fairly standardised structure in each chapter. In each case, the book presents key issues relating to the structural element, load paths and then the various types of structure in each category. I found this book a very valuable addition to the quick reference texts that have helped the civil/structural practice over the years.

    The book is charming -- and new condition as shown. This is a hard to find item, so glad to find it new here for a reasonable price! It arrived quickly, but was packed in a mailing envelope -- and even though it was padded, one of corner was crushed, which was disappointing as this is to be a gift. Overall postive, nonetheless.
