This lecture covers examples of design and load reduction in metal structures, focusing on the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the New School of the Sick Woman. Topics include static diagrams, transmission of forces, prefabricated panels, stabilizers, and the transmission of forces under different loadings. The lecture also discusses reinforcements, longitudinal and transverse loading, and the role of connections in the structure.
