Optimization of design for better structural capacity

"This book explores how to overcome structural failures and guarantee a long life and go to tap hidden structural capacities, by touching different axes in field of civil engineering by optimizing the design, like pre-dimensioning dampers and fire design and optimizing both structural model and...
