Abstract

This paper describes a new Columbia University Graduate Course on the modern challenges in the design of large scale building structures. Tall buildings, large convention centers, and major sports stadiums present major opportunities to teach creative solutions and leadership to engineers. This course is designed to expose the students to this environment by having them undertake the complete design of a large structure from initial design concepts on through all the major design decisions.
