The book makes extensive use

of worked numerical examples

to demonstrate the methods of
calculating the capacities of
structural elements. These examples
have been extensively revised from
the previous edition, with further
examples added. The worked
examples are cross-referenced to the
relevant clauses in AS 4100: 1998.
Between them, the authors have close
to 100 years experience of solving
engineering problems. All three
have practised in all phases of the
design and specications of steel
structures ranging from commercial
to institutional structures; while
two, Arun Syam and Branko Gorenc,
have served on numerous Standard
Australia committees related to steel
construction.

This seventh, thoroughly updated

edition of Steel Designers Handbook
will be an invaluable tool to all
practising structural engineers, as
well as engineering students.
It introduces the main concepts
relating to design in steel and
replaces the sixth edition, published
in 1996. This edition has been
prepared in response to the new
structural Design Actions Standard,
AS/ANZ 1170, as well as feedback
from users. It is based on Australian
Standard (AS) 4100: 1998 and
provides added background to that
Standard.
