Manual of Steel Construction

147pages | PDF | 2 MB This Manual is condensed back into a single volume with all member and connection design information in one book that's still thumb-cut for easy reference. It has been reorganized and reformatted to provide practical and efficient access to the information you need to design and construct structural steel buildings. Roadmaps take you quickly to applicable specifications, codes and standards, as well as the applicable provisions in those standards. All current structural shapes are covered, including the old standard gages, the new T, k and k1 values for W-shapes and the 0.93 wall thickness reduction factor for HSS. Guidance is provided on the new OSHA safety regulations, stability bracing requirements and proper material specification. New information is provided on design drawing information requirements, criteria needed for connection design, mill, fabrication and erection tolerances, facade issues, temperature effects and fire protection requirements with summaries of common UL assemblies.
