Features: This book was compiled according to the requirements of the Editorial Committee for the Series of Graduate Textbooks in Civil Engineering. It provides a detailed introduction to the development history of large-span spatial structures, the classification of major large-span spatial structure systems, analysis theories, design foundations, and research development trends, as well as emerging new systems for large-span spatial structures. The book covers an introduction, reticulated structures, reticulated shells, cable-supported structures, membrane structures, and new systems for large-span spatial structures. In addition to serving as a textbook for graduate students in civil engineering, it can also be used as a reference for civil engineering designers and technical personnel.
