This powerful and advanced method for plastic analysis is important in an automated computational environment, in particular for non-linear structural analysis. A detailed comparison between the design codes for the United States and Australia and the emerging European Eurocodes enables practising engineers to understand the issues involved in plastic design procedures and the limitations imposed by this design method. Book Summary: This book is a comprehensive presentation of the fundamental aspects of analysis and design of steel structures.
It is primarily meant for the undergraduate students of civil engineering and postgraduate students of structural engineering.
It will also be immensely useful for structural engineers engaged in design, consultancy and construction involving steel structures. The important theoretical and practical concepts which need to be assimilated prior to undertaking analysis and design—general principles and practices, functional aspects of structures, basic design concepts, alternative arrangements of equipment and service, clarity of structural behaviour, and calculations of loadings on structures—are covered in the first two chapters.
The three types of structures specifically covered, on the basis of functional aspects, are scrap yard structures, conveyor structural systems, and turbo-generator buildings. In the Second Edition, analysis and design of steel structures have been carried out based on Indian Standard code of practice IS Every component of the structure comprising the beams and columns is designed in compliance with the code IS A comparison has been made between the results of the steel structures analysed and designed in compliance with EC3: Part and those obtained in accordance with Indian Standard code of practice IS The book discusses the various structural analyses and design calculations in an exhaustive manner.
The text is illustrated with an abundant number of visuals. Important sources of information relevant to steel structures can be found in the references at the end of various chapters.
Audience Undergraduate students of civil engineering and postgraduate students of structural engineering. Book Summary: The definitive guide to steel connection design—fully revised to cover the latest advances Featuring contributions from a team of industry-recognized experts, this up-to-date resource offers comprehensive coverage of every type of steel connection.
The book explains leading methods for connecting structural steel components—including state-of-the-art techniques and materials—and contains new information on fastener and welded joints. You will get complete details on fastener installation, space truss connections, composite member connections, seismic codes, and inspection and quality control requirements. Book Summary: The book introduces all the aspects needed for the safe and economic design and analysis of connections using bolted joints in steel structures.
This is not treated according to any specific standard but making comparison among the different norms and methodologies used in the engineering practice, e. Several examples are solved and illustrated in detail, giving the reader all the tools necessary to tackle also complex connection design problems. The book is introductory but also very helpful to advanced and specialist audiences because it covers a large variety of practice demands for connection design.
Parts that are not taken to an advanced level are seismic design, welds, interaction with other materials concrete, wood , and cold formed connections. Book Summary: Various structures, such as buildings, bridges, and paved roads play an important role in our lives.
However, these construction projects require large expenditures. Designing infrastructure cost-efficiently while satisfying all necessary design constraints is one of the most important and difficult tasks for a structural engineer.
Traditionally, mathematical gradient-based optimization techniques have been applied to these designs. However, these gradient-based methods are not suitable for discrete design variables such as factory-made cross sectional area of structural members. Recently, researchers have turned their interest to phenomenon-mimicking optimization techniques because these techniques have proved able to efficiently handle discrete design variables. One of these techniques is harmony search, an algorithm developed from musical improvisation that has been applied to various structural design problems and has demonstrated cost-savings.
Book Summary: These two volumes of proceedings contain 9 invited keynote papers and contributed papers to be presented at the Second International Conference on Advances in Steel Structures held on December in Hong Kong. The conference will provide a forum for discussion and dissemination by researchers and designers of recent advances in the analysis, behaviour, design and construction of steel structures. The papers to be presented at the conference cover a wide spectrum of topics and were contributed from over 15 countries around the world.
They report the current state-of-the art and point to future directions of structural steel research. Book Summary: This textbook describes the rules for the design of steel and composite building structures according to Eurocodes, covering the structure as a whole, as well as the design of individual structural components and connections. In addition, the fabrication and erection procedures, as well as the related quality requirements and the quality control methods are extensively discussed including the procedures for bolting, welding and surface protection.
The book is supplemented by more than fifty numerical examples that explain in detail the appropriate procedures to deal with each particular problem in the design of steel structures in accordance with Eurocodes. The book is an ideal learning resource for students of structural engineering, as well as a valuable reference for practicing engineers who perform designs on basis of Eurocodes. Book Summary: This topical book contains the latest scientific and engineering developments in the field of tubular steel structures, as presented at the "11th International Symposium and IIW International Conference on Tubular Structures".
The International Symposium on Tubular Structures ISTS has a long-standing reputation for being the principal showcase for manufactured tubing and the prime international forum for discussion of research, developments and applications in this field. Research and development issues presented in this book are applicable to buildings, bridges, offshore structures, entertainment rides, cranes, towers and various mechanical and agricultural equipment.
This book is thus a pertinent reference source for architects, civil and mechanical engineers, designers, steel fabricators and contractors, manufacturers of hollow sections or related construction products, trade associations involved with tubing, owners or developers of tubular structures, steel specification committees, academics and research students.
It discusses the planning of railway bridges and the appropriate types of bridges based on planning considerations. Book Summary: Using steel and concrete together utilizes the beneficial material properties of both elements. Concrete filled steel tubes represent a good example of a concrete — steel composite structure, and are particularly useful as columns in high rise buildings and bridge piers. Reviews and describes both the fundamental and practical design procedures for the ultimate limit state design of ductile steel plated structures The new edition of this well-established reference reviews and describes both fundamentals and practical design procedures for steel plated structures.
The derivation of the basic mathematical expressions is presented together with a thorough discussion of the assumptions and the validity of the underlying expressions and solution methods.
Furthermore, this book is also an easily accessed design tool, which facilitates learning by applying the concepts of the limit states for practice using a set of computer programs, which can be downloaded. Ultimate Limit State Design of Steel Plated Structures provides expert guidance on mechanical model test results as well as nonlinear finite element solutions, sophisticated design methodologies useful for practitioners in industries or research institutions, and selected methods for accurate and efficient analyses of nonlinear behavior of steel plated structures both up to and after the ultimate strength is reached.
It also meets the needs of structural designers or researchers who are involved in civil, marine, and mechanical engineering as well as offshore engineering and naval architecture.
