Binding is solid and square, covers have sharp corners, exterior shows no other blemishes, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any k…ind; very clean. Spanish-born Félix Candela (1910?1997) is acknowledged as a master builder who designed and built innovative thin shell concrete roof structures in Mexico. This book goes further, however, hailing Candela as a structural engineer whose elegant forms should be considered works of art. This handsomely designed volume begins by presenting the lineage of master builders and structural artists who preceded him, including those from the period of the Industrial Revolution. The authors then examine Candela's life, studies, and experiences, and analyze his early thin shell designs. They focus on the geometric form that Candela eventually used to create his most important works, examine several of the structures in detail, compare them to the works of other contemporary structural artists, and discuss the most important features of his legacy: the conservation of natural resources by minimizing materials; the reduction of cost by intimately connecting design to construction, and the creation of beautiful forms. This is a comprehensive study of Spanish-Mexican engineer Félix Candela examining his pioneering thin-shell concrete structures, particularly his innovative hyperbolic paraboloid designs, structural engineering principles, architectural collaboration, and influence on modern structural design through iconic works like Los Manantiales restaurant. Keywords: Thin Shell Structures, Hyperbolic Paraboloid, Concrete Engineering, 20th Century Architecture, Mexican Modernism, Structural Innovation, Architectural Engineering, Los Manantiales, Structural Aesthetics, Reinforced Concrete, Geometric Forms, Spanish Exile 2.
