Synopsis

Most of the embodied energy can be saved in the load-bearing structure!

Conceptual Design of Structures is working at the interface between structural engineering, architecture, and art. The book seeks to answer the complex question of what needs to be considered when conceiving a building structure. What influences the process of conceptual thinking? How do space and structure interact? In what ways do architects and engineers work together? The book thus sheds light on the topic of multidisciplinary interrelationships in design, showing numerous different perspectives. Renowned practitioners and researchers from architecture and engineering share their insights, as do artists and historians who cross the disciplinary boundaries. Furthermore, this book also provides an outlook on possible future developments and aspects of sustainable design and construction.

  • Bridging practice, academic, and research
  • Holistic perspectives through contributors from different disciplines
  • Numerous essays, interviews and project reviews provide direct insights
  • Selected works from engineering, architecture, and art
