About this title

Synopsis

This book studies the fundamental theories of column strength and provides a comprehensive discussion of working formulas and test results. The author reviews the most common types of trusses, with detailed analyses of secondary stresses in these structures, presenting calculations and tests that demonstrate the range of secondary stresses within them. It also includes a discussion of the principles of proper web splicing, a detailed design of a plate girder bridge, and the design of steel roof trusses and steel building frames. The author's examination of column shear, eccentricity of load, secondary stress, combined stresses, shear in short columns, and unsymmetrical bending provides a clear understanding of column behavior in the context of bridge design. The book concludes with a thorough treatment of the mechanics of unsymmetrical bending, a subject rarely found in textbooks on the strength of materials.
