Comprehensive Design of Steel Structures  (English, Paperback, Punmia B. C. Dr.)

Comprehensive Design of Steel Structures is a book on structural design and can be used as an important reference by students of civil engineering.

Summary Of The Book

Steel has some great inherent benefits in the field of architecture and it can be utilized as a strong framing material. The strengths that steel offers in building design is good resiliency and a great performance even in difficult and harsh conditions like natural disasters including hurricanes and earthquakes.

Curved forms are possible by shaping steel into any structure and hence it fulfills meeting difficult construction schedules in most weather condition.

Comprehensive Design of Steel Structures is a book that covers these aspects of steel in the field of architecture and construction. A good book that talks about structural design in steel, Comprehensive Design of Steel Structures is a highly recommended book for students. One that covers a range of topics in the field from Loads and stresses to riveted connections, steel work connections, bolted and pinned connections, and welded connections, Comprehensive Design of Steel Structures is considered to be a knowledgeable piece of work.

It also covers sections on designs including design of tension members, design of flexural members beams, design of column bases and footings, design of steel tanks, towers and masts, masonry structures etc.

Other topics in the book include Multi-storey buildings, Industrial buildings, Plastic Analysis and design, Bridges etc.
