The science of buildings
the sky-scraping story of structures
"This book explores the science of architecture since ancient times, and examines the life cycle of a building, from design to demolition. It looks at the challenges faced by . . . architects, including how to build in areas prone to natural disaster, and how to build sustainably, so that our structures don't end up damaging the planet"--Provided by publisher.
