An excellent text as a first introduction to structures geared toward architecture students, or as a companion for more traditional engineering / math-based courses including statics and strength of materials or structural principles. This conceptual, non-mathematical, yet technical look at the principles of structural mechanics, and the physical properties of building elements makes structural mechanics for architecture accessible to all. Continuing Dr. Salvadori’s passion for education and an accessible non-mathematical presentation of structural mechanics, Salvadori's Structure in Architecture: The Building of Buildings, 4/e is a must-have for students of architecture and building construction, structural engineers, and all those with an interest in architecture. It has been revised and expanded to include over 500 new illustrations, 150 new photos, and new materials covering the changes in technology and construction techniques developed during the last 50 years. Now presented in three manageable sections covering the fundamental concepts (Section 1), structural forms (Section 2), and topics beyond the basics (Section 3), it provides expanded content and graphics on critical topics such as beam behavior, moment of inertia, redundancy and much more!

Abide – Living In God’s Presence is a book for anyone who desires a deeper relationship with God. Pastor Deborah Oakley shares her journey of learning to live in God’s presence based on John 15 where Jesus says He is the True Vine and we are the branches. A branch is completely dependent on the vine. This means we are dependent on Jesus our true Vine. We live and dwell and make our home in His presence. We aren’t visitors, but permanent residents drawing life from Jesus. So when Satan attacks us, or life is difficult, we endure, remain and stand fast as we draw sustenance and strength from the Vine. We continue in worship, prayer, and the Word (which are the three keys to abiding in Christ) and we remain stable during the difficulties of life. This book will teach you how to defeat the little foxes that want to destroy your relationship of abiding in Christ. The little foxes are those hard-to-detect problems that quietly destroy our relationships. Left unchecked, these little foxes and issues inch their way into our lives, so we need to learn how to recognize them and exterminate them from our vineyard. Once we learn to abide we will discover benefits of abiding. These are fruitfulness, pruning, love, freedom, and obedience. When we live in God’s presence we experience these benefits and live a life of victory and abundance. This book will challenge you to overcome every hindrance to knowing God and to live in His presence.
