DESCRIPTION:
Very good book Diego Gabela I am very happy with the book, this is a good guide to the design of steel structures.It came in very good condition
Instructor resources available on the website include: comprehensive Solutions Manual as well as tips on how to best use the text in your course. The other unique feature is thorough coverage of connections. Steel Structures: Behavior and LRFD is unique in that it has five introductory chapters: an Introduction to motivate student interest by showing and discussing actual steel projects; Chapter 2 presents a discussion of steels as a structural material; Chapter 3 provides a broad introduction to structures; Chapter 4 discusses loads acting on structures per ASCE Standards 7; and Chapter 5 explains calculations for simple examples. Throughout the text, a web icon references readers to the book’s website (mhhe/ vinnakota), which contains extensive additional coverage of advanced topics. This textbook integrates both design considerations of steel structures as well as the behavior on which the design specifications are based. Connections are the most important and least understood components of steel structures. Chapters 6, 12, and 13 are devoted to this key topic. Student resources include: comprehensive list of equations, detailed list of symbols, and flowcharts.
