Interesting for technical and entertaining for nontechnical.

Describes various structural failures from antiquity to present day and their causes.Each chapter treats of a different type/cause of failure and is is well cross referenced and indexed so you can browse and skip around to find what interests you.Of particular interest to me as an engineer were tables like steel Strength vs Temperature in the chapter entitled Terror From The Skies.The diagrams, drawings, and charts are clear and easy to understand.This is a serious albeit entertaining work.

Good Read

Bought this for a school book review. It was an enjoyable read with diagrams and clear explanation of different case studies outlining each failure. Would recommend for anyone interested in structures.

Conoscevo l'autore e ne apprezzavo le qualità. Il libro dovrebbe esser letto nelle scuole di ingegneria. Consiglio la lettura a tutti i giovani ingegneri strutturisti.
