Traditionally, Structural Engineering education has been focused on the technical aspects of the profession and has given little attention to creativity, aesthetics and structural criticism. However, if the engineer wants to properly accomplish his/her role in society, the development of these competences among the students and the engineering profession is of major importance. This paper focuses on the use of case studies to develop Structural Criticism and is based on the concept of Structural Art developed by D.P. Billington. The case studies presented in the paper have been used with great success by the author in a general course on building structural analysis, and abundant graphic information and references are included. In doing so, the methodology can also be used by other engineering professors and professionals interested in spreading the knowledge of Structural Criticism. |
