Structural Steel Design: A Practice-Oriented Approach, 2e, bridges the gap between theory and practice, helping readers learn the basics of steel design and how to practically apply that learning to actual steel-framed building projects. Teaching and Learning Experience <ul>
<li> Takes a holistic approach by showing how each individual component design in a steel-framed building is incorporated into a complete building design as one would find in practice. </li>
<li> Introduces a design project as part of the end-of-the-chapter problems to expose readers to the important aspects of a real-world steel building design project. </li> </ul>

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>
 <li>includes a chapter on practical considerations covering topics like flitch beams, wood poles used for footings, reinforcement of existing structures, and historical data on wood properties.</li>
 <li>includes a section on long span and high rise wood structures</li>
 <li>includes an enhanced student design project</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.

Structural Steel Design

Structural Steel Design, Third Edition is a simple, practical, and concise guide to structural steel design – using the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) and the Allowable Strength Design (ASD) methods -- that equips the reader with the necessary skills for designing real-world structures. Civil, structural, and architectural engineering students intending to pursue careers in structural design and consulting engineering, and practicing structural engineers will find the text useful because of the holistic, project-based learning approach that bridges the gap between engineering education and professional practice. The design of each building component is presented in a way such that the reader can see how each element fits into the entire building design and construction process. Structural details and practical example exercises that realistically mirror what obtains in professional design practice are presented. Features: - Includes updated content/example exercises that conform to the current codes (ASCE 7, ANSI/AISC 360-16, and IBC) - Adds coverage to ASD and examples with ASD to parallel those that are done LRFD - Follows a holistic approach to structural steel design that considers the design of individual steel framing members in the context of a complete structure.
