Synopsis

Designed to furnish readers with a basic understanding of the strength and behaviour of structural steel members and their interrelationships in simple structural systems, this text has been updated and reflects recent changes in the AISC Specification (ASD). It includes a second introductory chapter to strengthen coverage of Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) and provides new and/or revised problem material in most chapters. There is updated coverage of Open Web Steel Joists (Chapter 9) to incorporate recent changes; the metric portion of the appendix has been expanded to include example problems using SI; and five flowcharts have been added to the appendix to provide visual representations of the text's step-by-step problem solving approach.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Applied Structural Steel Design, Fourth Edition, continues to serve readers with a basic understanding of the strength and behavior of structural steel members and their interrelationships in simple structural systems. By providing content that is primarily an elementary, noncalculus, practical approach to the design and analysis of structural steel members, using numerous example problems and a step-by-step solution format, this text has remained true to its reader-friendly tradition. This edition, however, is a transitional text that bridges two methods of design that are currently being used: Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) and Allowable Stress Design (ASD). Most engineering professionals agree that LRFD will become the dominant method in the future. However, since the traditional ASD method remains popular and practical and is still widely used, this text uses the traditional method while devoting entire chapters to the LRFD method.

Key features of this edition:

• The use of a dual system of units: the customary American system as well as the SI system
• Expanded coverage of plastic design
• The use of "spreadsheet" homework problems throughout the book

Revue de presse

"The chapters on steel detailing and open web steel joists provide more in-depth coverage to these topics than is normally found in such works." ― Thomas M. Burns, Cincinnati State Technical and Community College

"The text can be easily read and understood. It is presented clearly and spaciously." ― John Buttelwerth, Cincinnati State Technical Community College
