Steel Design and Construction

This textbook will help students and professionals alike gain a working knowledge of the design processes that must be followed for the design of structural steel systems, understand the behavior of structural steel structures and components and the basic design concepts used in their design, and aid in their understanding the management of the construction of structural steel projects. Unlike other textbooks that narrowly focus on design principles alone, this book will also address issues such as constructability, construction loads, structural steel construction safety, and standard construction practices.
