Analysis And Design Of Steel Structures

Although the title suggests a consideration of steel structures only, the importance of timber for falsework and scaffolding and the use of timber in beams, trestles and trusses is recognized. Main Chapter Titles Reactions; Stresses in Framed Trusses/Basic Methods of Analysis for Fixed Loads; Stresses in Trusses for Moving Loads (Loads considered as live panel loads, uniformly distributed, influence diagrams, locomotive wheel loads); Beams - stresses, design, timber beam design, steel beams; Plate Girders; Design of Steel Roof Trusses; Industrial Buildings; Economic Factors Governing the Proportions of Simple Span Bridges; Design of Truss Bridges; Deflection of Trusses and Statically Indeterminate Structures; Multistory Buildings; Continuous Frames and Secondary Stresses. Includes many diagrams.
