Structural Engineering. Steel Structures. Design Manual 2.3.

Abstract

Basic criteria for the design of structural elements and systems fabricated of various alloys of structural steel are presented for use by experienced engineers. Design standards are established for Class A (Bridge), Class B (Building), and Class C (Special) structures. A discussion of special considerations related to the design of certain types of steel structures such as crane runways, towers, stacks, and storage tanks is included. Problems of corrosion, abrasion, design of expansion joints, and exposure to extreme temperature are discussed. (Author)
