Developments in Structural Form

Encompassing buildings of the West, North Africa, and the Near East, from native construction to modern technology, Developments in Structural Form considers the physical principles of structures, the materials they are made of the ways in which they maybe built, and the history of man's involvement with them. Mainstone interweaves these approaches so deftly that the evolution of structural forms seems as natural and inevitable as the evolution of plants and animalsMainstone, Rowland J. is the author of 'Developments in Structural Form', published 1983 under ISBN 9780262630887 and ISBN 0262630885.
