Analysis and Design of Steel and Composite Structures

Steel and composite steelâconcrete structures are widely used in modern bridges buildings sport stadia towers and offshore structures. Analysis and Design of Steel and Composite Structures offers a comprehensive introduction to the analysis and design of both steel and composite structures. It describes the fundamental behavior of steel and composite members and structures as well as the current design criteria and procedures given in Australian standards AS/NZS 1170 AS 4100 AS 2327. 1 Eurocode 4 and AISC-LRFD specifications. Featuring numerous step-by-step examples that clearly illustrate the detailed analysis and design of steel and composite members and connections this practical and easy-to-understand text: Covers plates members connections beams frames slabs columns and beam-columns Considers bending axial load compression tension and design for strength and serviceability Incorporates the authorâs latest research on composite members Analysis and Design of Steel and Composite Structures is an essential course textbook on steel and composite structures for undergraduate and graduate students of structural and civil engineering and an indispensable resource for practising structural and civil engineers and academic researchers. It provides a sound understanding of the behavior of structural members and systems. . Language: English
