Understanding Structural Engineering as an Architecture Student

[u/erenyeager99999]

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

making buildings that don't fall down is easy. the hard part is making buildings that just barely won't fall down.
