This document discusses different types of structural systems for single storey long span buildings. It describes five categories of structural systems - form active, vector active, section active, surface active and provides examples for each. It also discusses common structural forms used for long span building structures such as insitu and precast concrete, structural steel, cable structures and shell structures. The document provides many examples of long span structures from around the world to illustrate different structural solutions.
A presentation that explains the various systems and techniques of employing steel and concrete to support long span structures. The range varies from conventional beams, to trusses and portal frames.
a space frame or space structure is a rigid, lightweight, truss-like structure constructed from interlocking struts in a geometric pattern. Space frames can be used to span large areas with few interior support
A short and elaborate Case Study on High Rise Buildings for the course of Advanced Building Construction from students of 8th Semester Architecture at VNIT, Nagpur (January- April 2017)

CCTV Building, A Structural Design OverviewPeter Bach
The CCTV building is one of the several big Beijing Olympic projects, which houses the headquarters for the Chinese Central Television Network. Its design shows unique style, but great structural engineering challenges to overcome. The following presentation provides an overview of how these challenges were overcome. (Presented at Monash University, Department of Civil Engineering, August 2008).
This is the study of industrial building which includes : Pre- engineered buildings, PEB, Concrete buildings, Portal frames, decking and flooring, sheeting and trimming, turbo air ventilators, etc.
The lecture is in support of:
(1) The Design of Building Structures (Vol.1, Vol. 2), rev. ed., PDF eBook by Wolfgang Schueller, 2016: chapter 9.

Between Filth and Fortune- Urban Cattle Foraging Realities by Devi S Nair, An...Mansi Shah
This study examines cattle rearing in urban and rural settings, focusing on milk production and consumption. By exploring a case in Ahmedabad, it highlights the challenges and processes in dairy farming across different environments, emphasising the need for sustainable practices and the essential role of milk in daily consumption.
Fonts play a crucial role in both User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) design. They affect readability, accessibility, aesthetics, and overall user perception.

5. Form active structural systems
Form active structural systems
. . . are systems of flexible, non-rigid matter, in
which the redirection of forces is effected by
particular form design and characteristic
form stabilization
Example of structures:
1. Cable structures
2. Tent structures
3. Pneumatic structures
4. Arch structures
13. Vector active structural systems
Vector active structural systems
. . . are systems of short, solid, straight lineal
members, in which the redirection of forces
is effected by vector partition, i.e. by multi-
directional splitting of single force simply
to tension or compressive elements
Example of structures:
1. Flat trusses
2. Curved trusses
3. Space trusses
17. Section active structural systems
Section active structural systems
. . . are systems of rigid, solid, linear
elements, in which redirection of forces
is effected by mobilization of sectional
forces
Example of structures:
1. Beam structures
2. Frame structures
3. Slab structures
18. 1 & 2 bay beams 1 & 2 bay frames
Beam-grid systems Slab structures
21. Surface active structural systems
Surface active structural systems
. . . are systems of flexible or rigid planes
able to resist tension, compression or
shear, in which the redirection of forces
is effected by mobilization of sectional
forces

2. Folded structures
3. Shell structures

Structure with span larger than 20m
can be regarded as long span structure
for this span is usually unable to be
achieved by ordinary RC structure.
