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
