Steel Structures: Practical Design Studies

A textbook used for structural engineering students and professionals. The content spans numerous topics, beginning with the fundamental structural design process, emphasizing the interplay of creativity, analysis (including computer modeling), and adherence to limit state theory under codes like BS 5950 and the Eurocodes (EC3 and EC4). Detailed chapters cover the design of specific structures, such as single-storey buildings (portals and arches) and multi-storey and wide-span buildings (dred domes, space decks), frequently contrasting plastic and elastic design methods. Finally, the text addresses essential design considerations beyond mere strength, including fire protection, corrosion protection, and meeting serviceability limit states like deflection and vibration.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/civil_engineering_made_simpleProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
