比较结构设计 概念与方法（英文版）

Comparative Structural Design: Concepts and Methods (English edition) proposes a new approach to structural concept design - comparative design that emphasizes on the rationalization and sustainable performance of structures. Through 3D structures, the book displays the mechanical characteristics of basic components, and analyzes the composition and decomposition of elements for better understanding diversified structures. This book is divided into eight chapters, covers a classification of structural systems, methods of global analysis of structures, characteristics and simplified analysis of horizontal/vertical substructure systems, comparative design and analysis of high-rise buildings, large-span structures, and spatial structures, as well as intelligent design based on knowledge engineering. This book is recommended for engineering students, structural engineers, and architects who are interested in improving their understanding of comparative design in structural concept design. The comprehensive content and detailed analysis provided in each chapter of this book will help readers grasp a better understanding of different structural systems, and guide them to apply comparative design in their own designs, leading to more efficient and sustainable structures.
