This highly illustrated manual provides practical guidance onstructural steelwork detailing. It:
· describes the common structural shapes in use and howthey are joined to form members and complete structures
· explains detailing practice and conventions
· provides detailing data for standard sections, bolts andwelds
· emphasises the importance of tolerances in order toachieve proper site fit-up
· discusses the important link between good detailing andconstruction costs
Examples of structures include single and multi-storeybuildings, towers and bridges. The detailing shown will be suitablein principle for fabrication and erection in many countries, andthe sizes shown will act as a guide to preliminary design.
The third edition has been revised to take account of the newEurocodes on structural steel work, together with their NationalAnnexes. The new edition also takes account of developments in 3-Dmodelling techniques and it includes more CAD standard librarydetails.
