Description

Design of Steel Structures: Limit States Method is a comprehensive textbook designed to cater to the undergraduate students of civil and structural engineering. It will also prove useful for postgraduate students and serve as an invaluable reference for practising engineers unfamiliar with the limit state design of steel structures.
This book provides an extensive coverage of the design of steel structures in accordance with the latest code of practice for the general construction in steel (IS 800:2007). The text is based on the modern limit state approach to design and covers areas such as the properties of steel, types of steel structures, important areas of structural steel technology, bolted connections, welded connections, design of trusses, design of plate girders, and design of beam-columns. Each chapter features solved examples, multiple-choice and review questions, practice problems, references, and sample illustrations that supplement the text.
