Master the real-world rules for riveted joints, bearings, and steel design.
This edition translates years of practical experience into design guidance for engineers.
This book focuses on how elastic theory and economic design apply to columns, eye bars, pins, and riveted connections. It explains working stresses, bearing limits, and how nonuniform loading changes the strength of a joint. You’ll see comparisons between different steel types and how material behavior affects field construction, maintenance, and safety.
- Practical methods for estimating working stresses in rivets, pins, and eye bars, with margins appropriate for real structures
- The effect of rivet group layout, gage, and distribution on joint strength and reliability
- How different steels, including nickel-containing and soft steels, influence joint performance
- Considerations of alternating stresses, heat effects, and critical temperatures in alloy steels
Ideal for readers involved in bridge, building, and structural design where riveted connections and steel members play key roles.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This fascinating study of column design in structural engineering explores the crucial topic of assessing how well vertical supports can withstand axial compression or tension. The book delves into the contrasting approaches of the past, where theory often diverged from practical observations, and the more accurate methods developed in recent times. The author meticulously examines the shortcomings of the Rankine-Gordon formula, particularly its misapprehension of end conditions, and traces the evolution of more rational formulas that account for the critical influence of slenderness ratio. Through historical examples, the author illuminates how a deeper understanding of stress distribution and column behavior emerged. This book will captivate engineers, architects, and anyone interested in the evolution of structural engineering theory towards a more nuanced and reliable approach to column design, ensuring the safety and longevity of our built environment.
