Concrete Shells

(OP)
I would like to purchase a used copy of "Candela, the Shell Builder", by Colin Faber.  I'm working on low cost housing designs for the third world.  Felix Candela was an master of thin shell design and construction in Mexico, mainly.  I would appreciate help in design ideas or other literature.

RE: Concrete Shells

perhaps if you can have acces to a library in Mexico, you can look at "Diseno de estructuras especiales" by Raul Gomez Tremari from the Universidad de Guadalajara...
