This book is a comprehensive, stand alone reference for structural steel design. Giving the audience a thorough introduction to steel structures, this book contains all of the need to know information on practical design considerations in the design of steel buildings. It includes complete coverage of design methods, load combinations, gravity loads, lateral loads and systems in steel buildings, and much more.

For courses in reinforced concrete. A practitioner’s guide to reinforced concrete design Reinforced Concrete Design integrates current building and material codes with realistic examples to give readers a practical understanding of this field and the work of its engineers. Using a step-by-step solution format, the text takes a fundamental, active-learning approach to analyzing the design, strength, and behavior of reinforced concrete members and simple reinforced concrete structural systems. Content throughout the 9th edition conforms to the latest version of ACI-318 Code. It expands discussion of several common design elements and practice issues, and includes more end-of-chapter problems reflecting real-world design projects.

Structural Wood Design: ASD/LRFD

This text provides a concise and practical guide to timber design, using both the Allowable Stress Design and the Load and Resistance Factor Design methods. It suits students in civil, structural, and construction engineering programs as well as engineering technology and architecture programs, and also serves as a valuable resource for the practicing engineer. The examples based on real-world design problems reflect a holistic view of the design process that better equip the reader for timber design in practice. This new edition
 <ul>
 <li>now includes the LRFD method with some design examples using LRFD for joists, girders and axially load members.</li>
 <li>is based on the 2015 NDS and 2015 IBC model code.</li>
 <li>includes a more in-depth discussion of framing and framing systems commonly used in practice, such as, metal plate connected trusses, rafter and collar tie framing, and pre-engineered framing.</li>
 <li>includes sample drawings, drawing notes and specifications that might typically be used in practice.</li>
 <li>includes updated floor joist span charts that are more practical and are easy to use.</li>

A simple, practical, and concise guide to timber design 
To fully understand structural design in wood, it is not sufficient to consider the individual components in isolation. Structural Wood Design: A Practice-Oriented Approach Using the ASD Method offers an integrative approach to structural wood design that considers the design of the individual wood members in the context of the complete wood structure so that all of the structural components and connectors work together in providing strength. Holistic, practical, and code-based, this text provides the reader with knowledge of all the essentials of structural wood design: <ul>
<li> Wood structural elements and systems that occur in wood structures </li> <li> Structural loads—dead, live, snow, wind, and seismic—and how to calculate loads acting on typical wood structures </li> <li> Glued-laminated lumber and allowable stresses for sawn lumber and Glulam </li> <li> The design and analysis of joists and girders </li> <li> Floor vibrations </li> <li> The design of wood members subjected to axial and bending loads </li> <li> Roof and floor sheathing and horizontal diaphrams </li> <li> Exterior wall sheathing and wood shear walls </li> <li> The design of connections and how to use the connection capacity tables in the NDS code </li> <li> Several easy-to-use design aids for the preliminary sizing of joists, studs, and columns </li> </ul>
In keeping with its hallmark holistic and practice-oriented approach, the book culminates in a complete building design case study that brings all the elements together in a total building system design. Conforming throughout to the 2005 National Design Specification (NDS) for Wood, Structural Wood Design will prepare students for applying the fundamentals of structural wood design to typical projects, and will serve as a handy resource for practicing engineers, architects, and builders in their everyday work.
