    Try this Hillyer book – http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001I1S9G2?pc_redir=1396676823&robot_redir=1

    Look up works of frank Lloyd wright and antoni Gaudi and other architects to go with.

    PBS did a great TV series a while back called Building Big, and there are 5 episodes, which you can probably find at your library.  David Macaulay narrates/writes them, and they are great.  The topics: Domes, Bridges, Tunnels, Skyscrapers, and Dams.  His other books (Pyramid, City, Cathedral, Mosque, Castle) may also be of interest.
