Architectural Design of Earthquake and Wind Resisting Structure
This paper describes a structural analysis computer program. Written specifically for architects, the program is used to determine the structure a building requires to resist lateral loads. The program overcomes an existing lack of information on possible configurations and sizes of structural elements to resist earthquake and wind load. It enables many design options to be considered, and increases the likelihood of the final choice of structural system and configuration best integrating with the total design. Uses of the program in undergraduate teaching, and the preparation of architectural design guides are discussed.
