Steel Structures : Practical Design Studies

Abstract

The main purpose of the third edition remains again to present principles, relevant considerations and sample designs for some of the major types of steel-framed buildings. All buildings can be framed in different ways with different types of joints and analysed using different methods. Member design for ultimate conditions is specified. Projects are selected to show alternative designs for the same structure. The book, as in the case of the second edition is aimed at final year students, candidates of master’s degree courses in structural engineering and young engineers in industry.
