Preliminary Design List of Units List of Symbols Glossary IndexReviewsIn an era of greater demand for building system integration, communication has never been more important. McMullin and Price provide a very accessible and basic primer for the education and practical application of structural engineering for architects. Maintaining practices as consultant engineers while teaching in both engineering and architecture, the authors have transcribed this experience into a very serviceable aid to architects for evaluating the initial selection of structural systems and estimating the dimensional attributes of component elements. - Prescott Muir, FAIA, Professor, School of Architecture, University of Utah, USA """In an era of greater demand for building system integration, communication has never been more important.
