Identify the "basic structural requirements" as the first step. After, analyze how the structural most used materials (masonry, wood, steel, aluminum, reinforced and prestressed concrete, plastics, and newer "high-tech" materials such as carbon fiber), as well as the current construction means and methods, boost or obstruct the implementation of those requirements.
