Smith B.S. Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Washington, 2002 Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering on May 9, 2003 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Engineering in Civil and Environmental Engineering Abstract In recent years, retractable roofs have become a popular feature in sport stadiums. However, they have been used throughout time because they allow a building to become more flexible in its use. This thesis reviews the current technologies of retractable roofs and discusses possible innovations for the future. Most retractable roofs use either a 2-D rigid panel system or a 2-D membrane and I-D cable system.

  • New Books and Highlights Spring 2021 Welcome
    New Books and Highlights Spring 2021 Welcome Visions of Heaven: Dante and the Art of Divine Light by Leonardo scholar Martin Kemp is a glorious highlight of our Spring 2021 programme, published to coincide with the 700th anniversary of Dante’s death. It is both a feast for the eyes, lavishly illustrated with masterpieces of Renaissance and Baroque painting, and a hugely original study of the impact of Dante’s vision of divine light on the artists of the Renaissance and Baroque. It is also the trailblazer for a new Lund Humphries programme of illustrated Art History books written by scholars and accessible to non-specialists. Keep an eye out in our newsletters and on our social-media channels for two new Art History series launching in Autumn 2021: Illuminating Women Artists: Renaissance and Baroque, and Northern Lights. A number of books in our Spring list uncover aspects of Design History from the more recent past. The IBM Poster Program tells a fascinating story of mid-century graphic design centred on one of the most important corporations of the 20th century; designer Greta Magnusson Grossman’s previously untold contribution to mid-century modernism is charted in an important new monograph on her work; and Arts and Crafts Pioneers explores the importance of the Victorian Century Guild of Artists and its influential periodical, The Hobby Horse, in the formation of the Arts & Crafts Movement. A growing strand of the Lund Humphries publishing programme is concerned with the interaction between contemporary visual culture and the contemporary world. The New Directions in Contemporary Art series, edited by Marcus Verhagen, launches this Spring with four thought-provoking critical texts.
