Simplified Design of Steel Structures (Parker/Ambrose Series of Simplified Design Guides)

The Sixth Edition of the standard work on designing with structural steel covers the many forms of structural steel such as decks and bar joists, and discusses the use of ``off-the-shelf'' steel components and systems. This comprehensive has been updated to cover new practices, including extended coverage of computer-aided design. New chapters lead readers through the design of actual buildings using steel, and the text reflects revised codes and building systems.
