Key influences in designing and constructing buildings

• structural design

• structural materials

STRUCTURAL DESIGN

Strength the materials used in the construction of the building must have adequate to support all applied loads

dead loads live loads

Stability must be capable of withstanding all appled forces without becoming unstable

STRUCTURAL MATERIALS

• Timber, stone, brick - oldest most traditional materials. Generally limited to smaller structures.

• STEEL Widely used from thinnest sheets to solid sections.Good in tension, not quite so good in compression.Used in solid sections, reinforcing bars, tubular sections and cables

• CONCRETEPredates steel/iron as a construction material. Good in compression, weak in tension – hence reinforced concrete
