Présentation de l'éditeur :
Readers with a professional interest in steel engineering will find
this brilliant book a handbook for quick, goal-oriented reading and
implementation.
The book covers case study projects that exemplify common norm
details and readers will find these superbly illustrated by large-scale
drawings.
The authors also detail the fundamentals of planning load-bearing structures and provide design and planning help.
This is supplemented by explanations of common load-bearing
structures using examples of residential, office, hall and industrial
buildings.
Issues of fire safety and building physics particularly relevant to
steel construction are treated alongside the use of steel as a material
for cladding facades.
What is more, the text includes a systematic overview of sectional
steel, sheet metal, and cables and their properties, finishes, and
areas of implementation.
