Steel Structures: Design and Behavior : Emphasizing Load and Resistance Factor Design
Steel Structures Design and Behavior Emphasizing Load and Resistance Factor Design Author:Charles G. Salmon, John Johnson The design of structural steel members has developed over the past century from a simple approach involving a few basic properties of steel and elementary mathematics to a more sophisticated treatment demanding a thorough knowledge of structural and material behavior. Steel Structures:Design and Behavior, 5/e�strives to present in a logic... more »al manner the theoretical background needed for developing and explaining design requirements.� Beginning with coverage of background material, including references to pertinent research, the development of specific formulas used in the AISC Specifications is followed by a generous number of design examples explaining in detail the process of selecting minimum weight members to satisfy given conditions.« less
