This comprehensive introduction to basic steel design tension members, beams, columns under axial load, members under combined forces, connections, plate girders, continuous beams and frames, and composite construction reflects the most recent design specifications and load codes, and features an abundance of examples, flow- diagrams, and problems. explains the LRFD philosophy and introduces the new design methodology; coverage of load and resistance factor design is included in chapters on the basic steel structure, beams, and plate girders; adds a discussion on ponding and vibration as special topics in beam design; and includes a chapter on computer-aided technology.
