| Synopsis: |
This fourth volume of the Detail engineering series presents the theoretical background of SOM's structural group and addresses the question of "how high can you go", as well as the issues of efficiency and economy. On the basis of a variety of projects - from James Turrel Skyspace to Burj Khalifa, this volume considers how to find new structural solutions, as well as how materials can be used innovatively to create "next generation" buildings. |
