The industry-standard guide to structural engineering-fully updated for the latest advances and regulations
For 50 years, this internationally renowned handbook has been the go-to reference for structural engineering specifications, codes, technologies, and procedures. Featuring contributions from a variety of experts, the book has been revised to align with the codes that govern structural design and materials, including IBC, ASCE 7, ASCE 37, ACI, AISC, AASHTO, NDS, and TMS. Concise, practical, and user-friendly, this one-of-a-kind resource contains real-world examples and detailed descriptions of today's design methods.
Structural Engineering Handbook, Fifth Edition, covers:
* Computer applications in structural engineering
* Earthquake engineering
* Fatigue, brittle fracture, and lamellar tearing
* Soil mechanics and foundations
* Design of steel structural and composite members
* Plastic design of steel frames
* Design of cold-formed steel structural members
* Design of aluminum structural members
* Design of reinforced- and prestressed-concrete structural members
* Masonry construction and timber structures
* Arches and rigid frames
* Bridges and girder boxes
* Building design and considerations
* Industrial and tall buildings
* Thin-shell concrete structures
* Special structures and nonbuilding structures
