 "... an important tool for designers, fabrication industry members, and industry developers across geographical borders. the author has done extensive study and research of available literature on the subject and presented the relevant day-to day use information in an encapsulated, easy-to-implement format, ready for practical hands-on users." -Amitabha Ghoshal, F.I.C.E. (UK), F.I.E. (India), Chief Advisor, Board of Directors, STUP Consultants Pvt. Ltd., Kolkata. India "... covers important practical design aspects of welded steel structures that are typically not covered in analytical-based design references." - Cyrus Raoufi, Ph.D., P.Eng., British Columbia Institute of technology, Burnaby, Canada. Design of Welded Steel Structures : principles and Practice provides a solid foundation of welded steel structures. The book begins by explaining the basics of arc welding. describing the salient features of modern arc welding processes as well as the types and characteristics of welded joints, their common defects, and recommended remedial measures. The text then: Addresses the analysis and design of welded structures, Explores the design of joints in respect to common welded steel structures, Identifies the cost factors involved in welded steelwork,. Design of Welded Steel Structures : Principles and Practice draws not only from the author's own experience, but also from the vast pool of research conducted by distinguished engineers around the globe. Detailed bibliographies are included at the end of each chapter.
