Description
Structures which move in the course of normal use, or which have to be assembled at high speed on a relatively unprepared site, offer a particular challenge to the designer. Featuring the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Mobile and Rapidly Assembled Structures, this text brings together contributions by engineers, architects and researchers concerned with the design, analysis, manufacture and erection of such structures. The papers should be useful to military, civil, aeronautical, telecommunications, and construction engineers and architects.
