Disasters like Hurricane Katrina, the 2004 Tsunami, and 9/11 will leave an everlasting impression on the world. However, these disasters leave more than just memories – they are forcing the architecture, engineering, and contracting industries to reexamine how they design and construct the built environment around us. Ramroth addresses the impact of disasters on urban planning, building design, and the design of large-scale engineering projects such as bridges, tunnels, and levees.
Features
- Approximately 25 illustrations
- Specialized building and planning terms fully explained
