Unified Design of Steel Structures 2nd Edition PDF Download Ebook. Louis F. Geschwindner provides an understanding that structural analysis and design are two integrated processes as well as the necessary skills and knowledge in investigating, designing, and detailing steel structures utilizing the latest design methods according to the AISC Code.
The goal is to prepare readers to work in design offices as designers and in the field as inspectors. This text is compatible with the 2011 AISC code as well as marginal references to the AISC manual for design examples and illustrations, which was seen as a real advantage by the survey respondents. Furthermore, new sections have been added on: Direct Analysis, Torsional and flexural-torsional buckling of columns, Filled HSS columns, and Composite column interaction.
More real-world examples are included in addition to new use of three-dimensional illustrations in the book and in the image gallery; an increased number of homework problems; and media approach Solutions Manual, Image Gallery. Connection design-potential connection types and the strength of bolts, welds, and connecting elements; simple connections; and moment resisting connections are also explained.
In accordance with the book's unified coverage, every example in this book is complete for both LRFD and ASD, and homework problems at the end of each chapter are designed so that either LRFD or ASD provisions may be assigned. There are also problems designed to show comparisons between ASD and LRFD solutions.
Ideal as a text for a first course in steel design for civil and architectural engineers, it also provides a solid review for practicing engineers who wish to learn the provisions of the unified specification and apply them to their practices.
