Manual de pré-dimensionamento de pilares de concreto armado para arquitetos

Abstract

Manual of previous measuring of reinforced concrete pillars. This work represents a design support tool for architects in the form of a manual. So that from the knowledge passed on, the architect is able to predict the structural requirements of the building and choose the solution that best fits those needs, taking into account the basic requirements to be chosen, such as balance, stability, functionality, cost, resistance, aesthetics, run time, in view of the fact that architecture cannot exist independent of a structure, materials and construction methods that produce the own architecture. The manual comes in the form of a practical guide, with plain and didactic language, with the presentation of schematic drawings, tables, images, and also with practical examples of implementation, focusing on structural previous measuring of reinforced concrete pillars. It demonstrates the importance of structural design at the time of the development of the architectural project, shows the tasks and responsibilities of those professionals, discusses the basic structural concepts and develops a specific study on the types, amounts, applications, and methods for the structural previous measuring of reinforced concrete pillars.
