SynopsisWith over 85,000 copies in print, this world-renowned handbook is the only reference to provide engineers with all important structural engieering principles and design techniques. Prepared by 46 international experts, the Fourth Edition is updated to include the latest design developments, specifications, and codes. The design of structural steel members is revised to conform to 1989 ASD and 1993 LRFD specifications, and three sections on bridges now include 1994 AASHTO specifications. Earthquake-resistant design is expanded beyond buildings to cover recent developments on bridge loads., Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product.
