EDITORIAL REVIEWS |
Product Description
Steel Design covers the fundamentals of structural steel design with an emphasis on the design of members and their connections, rather than the integrated design of buildings. Not only is Steel Design a revision of LRFD Steel Design, it also encompasses the 2005 unification of LRFD and ASD as is covered in the Steel Construction Manual. The book is designed so that instructors can easily teach either LRFD or ASD, or both, time-permitting, as the differences in the two approaches are mostly conceptual. The application of fundamental principles is encouraged for design procedures as well as for practical design, but so is a theoretical approach, enhancing the students development. While the book is intended for junior-and senior-level engineering students, some of the later chapters can be used in graduate courses. Due to the changes that were made to many provisions of the Steel Construction Manual, practicing engineers will find this text useful in reviewing current practices and it will be an essential reference tool. |

Good steel book 
Very nice book and does a good job distinguishing between LRFD and ASD methods. Examples are thoroughly explained too. Required for my steel design course in structural engineering.

So far, great book for learning steel design
We've been using this book for the past two weeks in my Steel Design class and so far it has been very good in explaining the basics of design for tension and compression members. There are plenty of examples and problems that students can do using this book in conjunction with the AISC Steel Manual. This is a great book and hopefully it'll stay this way for the rest of the course.

Good Book
This book did a very good job in helping me understand steel design. The examples are very clear and the discussion on the various topics is easy to understand. It is an overall good book.
