Principles of Structural Design
Many important advances in designing high-performance structures have occurred over the last several years. Structural engineers need an authoritative source of information that thoroughly and concisely covers the foundational principles of the field. Comprising chapters selected from the second edition of the best-selling Handbook of Structural Engineering, this book provides a tightly focused, economical guide to the theoretical, practical, and computational aspects of structural design. Expert contributors discuss a wide variety of structures, including steel, aluminum, timber, and prestressed concrete, as well as reliability-based design and structures based on wind engineering.
Structural Design In Steel
This Book Represents The Translation Of The Author'S Structural Design Experience In The United States Of America In Terms Of The Indian Code Of Practice And His Perception Of The Needs Of The Engineering Students Of The Indian Schools.A Former Lecturer In Civil Engineering At Aligarh Muslim University In India And, Later, A Practicing Engineer In The U.S.A. Over Three Decades, The Author Has Presented A Pleasant And Useful Blend Of The Theory And Practice Of Structural Design In Steel. The Book Incorporates Just Enough Theory For The Readers To Feel Comfortable With The Details Of The Design Problems That Form An Integral Part Of This Presentation. The Basic Concepts And Fundamental ``Building Blocks`` Of Steel Design Presented In The ``Traditional`` Chapters On Structural Fasteners, Tension Members, Beams Etc., Are Later Used To Familiarize The Readers With The More Interesting And Challenging Design Topics Of Special Connections, Multistorey Building Frames, Industrial Buildings And Plastic Analysis And Design. Illustrative Examples With A Practical Bias Are Extensively Used And Problems In Day-To-Day Engineering With Possible Solutions Are Emphasized.Written In An Easy And Concise Style, The Book Incorporates A Large Number Of Example Problems Along With A Set Of Expanded Steel Tables To Help The Readers Hone Their Knowledge And Skills. Students As Well As Practicing Engineers Will Find This Book Of Considerable Interest And Use.
A Practical Course in Advanced Structural Design
A Practical Course in Advanced Structural Design is written from the perspective of a practicing engineer, one with over 35 years of experience, now working in the academic world, who wishes to pass on lessons learned over the course of a structural engineering career. The book covers essential topics that will enable beginning structural engineers to gain an advanced understanding prior to entering the workforce, as well as topics which may receive little or no attention in a typical undergraduate curriculum. For example, many new structural engineers are faced with issues regarding estimating collapse loadings during earthquakes and establishing fatigue requirements for cyclic loading – but are typically not taught the underlying methodologies for a full understanding. Features: Advanced practice-oriented guidance on structural building and bridge design in a single volume. Detailed treatment of earthquake ground motion from multiple specifications (ASCE 7-16, ASCE 4-16, ASCE 43-05, AASHTO). Details of calculations for the advanced student as well as the practicing structural engineer. Practical example problems and numerous photographs from the author’s projects throughout. A Practical Course in Advanced Structural Design will serve as a useful text for graduate and upper-level undergraduate civil engineering students as well as practicing structural engineers.
