Review

'...a succinct coverage of all basic aspects of the stuctural of aluminium members, joints and systems based on the provisions of BS8118 and, more particularly, EC9. It is very clearly written, easy to follow and introduces the reader to the background to each topic before providing a commentary on the use of the Code provisions. ...it is well suited to those encountering in the structural use of aluminium for the first time. ...it should prove extremely useful to practitioners confronted with the need to design using aluminium.' Engineering Structures 'Ulrich Muller's book effectively highlights the properties and applications of aluminium, giving information about the material itself, as well as its fabrication, structural design and corrosion potential. ... Additionally, the book considers design standards such as the British Standard and Eurocode. The book is well designed and organised. It allows the reader to consider how aluminium might be improved structurally to be used more widely in future, in order to save money and meet not only structural requirements but also safety and serviceability.'
