This revision of Segui's best-selling introduction to structural steel design closely reflects ongoing changes in the AISC LRFD Specifications and The Manual of Steel Construction. Its practical, down-to-earth presentation avoids excessive detail while providing a comprehensive study of structural steel design, including coverage of tension and compression members, beams, beam-columns, and connections. In later chapters, the book delivers a systematic discussion of composite members and plate girders.
