Structural Competency for Architects is a comprehensive volume covering topics from structural systems and typologies to statics, strength of materials, and component design. The book includes everything you need to know about structures for the design of components, as well as the logic for design of structural patterns, and selection of structural typologies.

Organized into six key modules, each chapter includes examples, problems, and labs, along with an answer key available on our website, so that you learn the fundamentals. Structural Competency for Architects will also help you pass your registration examinations.

Industry Reviews

'Architects learn structural calculations in school, but have little opportunity to practice those skills in daily work. Becker's book is the clearest text I have seen to help practicing architects remember "How do I do that?" Structural Competency for Architects offers step-by-step instructions to address all the common structural design tasks involved in typical buildings.' - Jeremy Fretts, Senior Project Architect, Niles Bolton Associates

'This is a comprehensive text that addresses every aspect of structural design in one volume [...] It is a welcome addition to the literature of structure in architecture.' - Deborah Oakley, Associate Professor, School of Architecture, University of Nevada
