Francis D.K. Ching brings his trademark presentation to the structural design stu-dio with this major new work coauthored

by Barry Onouye and Douglas Zuberbuhler. Taking a new approach to structural design, Ching and his coauthors show how structural systems of a building—as an integrated assembly of elements with pattern, propor-tion, and scale—are related to the essential aspects of architectural design: formal and spatial composition, program fit, coordination with other building systems such as enclosure and mechanical systems, code compli-ance, etc. Building Structures Illustrated is illustrated throughout with line drawings to present the essential role of structural systems in buildings.

understanding and negotiating construction contracts: a contractor’s and subcontractor’s guide to protecting company assetsKit Werremeyer

978-0-87629-822-0 • September 2007

Construction is a complex business. Each project has its own unique physical and commercial con-

siderations. Since there’s no such thing as a standard or typical construction project, construction contracts should also never be considered standard. The contractor must carefully manage both in order to have a successful outcome and protect the company’s interests and assets. This book will help you man-age all vital elements of the contract, from the scope of work and schedule to terms of payment and cash flow to insurance, bonding, indemnity, and war-ranties, among many other topics.
