ABB105 24 WK 02 Slides

This document contains notes from a class on spanning structures. It discusses different types of structural systems like trusses, arches, shells and grids. It also covers loads like dead, live, wind and snow loads. Case studies of spanning structures are presented, including works by Gaudi, Candela and Otto. Students are tasked with building physical models for an upcoming design charrette and compiling information on a case study structure.
