This well-preserved 1964 third printing of Mario Salvadori’s “Structure In Architecture” offers a unique glimpse into the pioneering work of one of the most influential architectural theorists of the 20th century. Salvadori, an Italian-American engineer and educator, revolutionized the way architects and engineers approached structural design, emphasizing the importance of understanding the fundamental principles of mechanics and physics. This seminal work, first published in 1958, became a essential reference for generations of architects, bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and practical application. Salvadori’s clear and engaging writing style, combined with his extensive use of diagrams and illustrations, made complex structural concepts accessible to a wide audience. This copy, with its well-preserved interior and sturdy binding, is a testament to the enduring value of Salvadori’s work and its continued relevance in the field of architecture and engineering.
