Design of Steel Structures Second Edition

This second edition maintains the philosophy and structure of the first edition while incorporating significant updates in structural analysis and design. New material includes earlier integration of plastic analysis concepts, expanded coverage of plastic design methods, and discussions on modern structural steels and structural response to loading. Revised design examples reflect updated specifications, including highway bridge calculations and high-rise building case studies. The book combines theoretical foundations with practical applications, making it a valuable reference for structural engineering education and professional practice.
