Patterns 5
Patterns was an occasional, in-house technical journal published by Buro Happold between 1987 and 2011. There were 16 editions of Patterns and 2 special issues.
Considered seminal at the time, Patterns had a significant influence on engineering for several decades. Patterns is reproduced here with the kind permission of Buro Happold because of its historical interest and the impact it has had on the development of engineering theory.
Patterns 5 was published in May 1989.

- Chariots of Fire. By Ted Happold.
- The Engineering of Surface Stressed Structures. By Ian Liddell.
- Interactive Graphic CAD for Tension Structures. By David Wakefield.
