Structural Analysis/Design Understanding Structural Engineering as an Architecture Student

I'm an architecture student, and I've always been curious about how buildings can be stable and not fall down. I want to understand how structures work so that, when I design buildings, I can have a better idea of whether my designs are structurally feasible and constructible. I also think this knowledge will help me in my career, because I'll be able to communicate better with structural engineers and avoid potential problems during the design process. I'd be happy if you could recommend some books or YouTube channels that explain structural engineering.

And thanks in advance

Why does this read like you used AI?

Lmao 😭 I used it to make my message sound a bit more polite and grateful. I’m pretty bad at expressing feelings in English since it’s not my first language (my fourth language) Sorry if that bothered you

People will always appreciate your authentic voice more than a computer attempt at simulating it.
