Unobstructed free space is a pervasive goal in the design of structures intended to provide shelter and protection. This is especially essential for venues such as athletics, spectator activities, and large congregations. The need for such space is constrained by structural feasibility and costs of material and construction. Space structures, and more specifically, the dome structural system is an efficient way to achieve this desired goal. The benefit of domes is that it can be shaped in such a way so that the members are only under axial stresses. Typical construction materials for large span braced domes are dominated by metallic alloys such as steel and aluminum due to their relatively high strength to weight ratio. Timber domes are observed much less frequently. However, recently there is a development of an increase in the use of timber as a structural material due to its potential as a sustainable and more environmental option. Trees can be harvested in a much more sustainable manner than materials such as steel. The aim of this thesis is to compare the advantages and disadvantages of the design and construction of a typical dome structure using differing structural materials of timber and steel. A lamella dome system with the same dimensions and layout was used for the analysis and design of both options. Parameters such as the total self-weight of the structural members, cost, deflection, durability, and sustainability were compared and discussed.

One of the main goals of a good and effective structural design is to decrease, as far as possible, the self-weight of structures, because they must carry the service load. This is especially important for reinforced concrete (RC) structures, as the self-weight of the material is substantial. For RC structures it is furthermore important that the w

Manual of numerical methods in concrete aims to present a unified approach for the available mathematical models of concrete, linking them to finite element analysis and to computer programs in which special provisions are made for concrete plasticity, cracking and crushing with and without concrete aggregate interlocking. Creep, temperature, and shrinkage formulations are included and geared to various concrete constitutive models.

Power, Speed, and Form is the first accessible account of the engineering behind eight breakthrough innovations that transformed American life from 1876 to 1939—the telephone, electric power, oil refining, the automobile, the airplane, radio, the long-span steel bridge, and building with reinforced concrete. Beginning with Thomas Edison's system to generate and distribute electric power, the authors explain the Bell telephone, the oil refining processes of William Burton and Eugene Houdry, Henry Ford's Model T car and the response by General Motors, the Wright brothers' airplane, radio innovations from Marconi to Armstrong, Othmar Ammann's George Washington Bridge, the reinforced concrete structures of John Eastwood and Anton Tedesko, and in the 1930s, the Chrysler Airflow car and the Douglas DC-3 airplane. These innovations used simple numerical ideas, which the Billingtons integrate with short narrative accounts of each breakthrough—a unique and effective way to introduce engineering and how engineers think. The book shows how the best engineering exemplifies efficiency, economy and, where possible, elegance. With Power, Speed, and Form, educators, first-year engineering students, liberal arts students, and general readers now have, for the first time in one volume, an accessible and readable history of engineering achievements that were vital to America's development and that are still the foundations of modern life.
