Book Reviews of Steel Structures: Design and Behavior (5th Edition)

Book Review: The best steel design reference
Summary: 5 Stars

This book covers the basics and fundamentals of steel design in such a way that provides a great reference for the structural engineering student or professional. Possibly the best book you can find in the field.
I've been using it since graduate school and through the years as a consultant in structural engineering.

Summary of Steel Structures: Design and Behavior (5th Edition)

The design of structural steel members has developed over the past century from a simple approach involving a few basic properties of steel and elementary mathematics to a more sophisticated treatment demanding a thorough knowledge of structural and material behavior. Steel Structures:Design and Behavior, 5/e?strives to present in a logical manner the theoretical background needed for developing and explaining design requirements.? Beginning with coverage of background material, including references to pertinent research, the development of specific formulas used in the AISC Specifications is followed by a generous number of design examples explaining in detail the process of selecting minimum weight members to satisfy given conditions.
