About the Book

Promoting and underlining the importance of structural thinking, Structural Systems: Behaviour and Design will provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the behaviour of a wide range of structural systems based on the load-carrying mechanisms involved. This is a hardback bind up of both volumes

Table of Contents:
SECTION 1 Introductory concepts The use of equilibrium in finding the state of stress and deformation (statically determinate structures) The handling of deformations for determining the stress state in framed structures (statically indeterminate structures) Simply supported beams Continuous beams Frames The influence of deformations on the state of stress. Elastic stability Arches Cable structures SECTION 2 Spatial structural systems, foundations and dynamics Grids Plates Shells Thin-walled beams Box girders Lateral response of multi-storey systems Dynamic behaviour of discrete mass systems Supporting the structure on the ground

About the Author :
Leonidas Stavridis, born in Athens in 1944, obtained his Diploma in Civil Engineering in 1967 and his Doctorate in 1986 from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA). He subsequently attended a postgraduate course in Bridge Engineering and Prestressed Structures at the Federal Institute of Technology of Zurich (ETH) and obtained his diploma in 1989. He is currently an Associate Professor in Structural Engineering at NTUA where he teaches Structural Analysis, Bridge Engineering and Structural Behaviour and Design at both undergraduate and post graduate levels. His publications in international scientific journals cover a wide range of topics related with static and dynamic analyses of orthotropic plates and shallow shells, prestressed cable structures, structural behaviour of multistory buildings, dynamic behaviour of curved thin walled beams, soil-structure interaction problems, the treatment of external partial prestressing in slab bridges and the behaviour of suspension and stress ribbon bridges. Since 1971, he has been a Structural Engineering Consultant involved in numerous building and bridge projects mostly in Greece.
