Description:

The Second Edition places particular emphasis on wind and seismic forces and the concept of lateral bracing. It also covers steel connections in great detail, including proposed code modifications resulting from the Northridge, California and Kobe, Japan earthquakes. This update discusses computer modeling techniques for capturing the response of buildings to anticipated forces with appropriate accuracy. It provides a sound knowledge of the structural behavior of building components and assemblies, and is helpful in interpreting and appraising the results of complex analyses for use with real structures. General approaches and trends including state-of-the-art systems to assist engineers…
