Riassunto

A comprehensive treatment of the design of structural elements, suitable for first and second year undergraduates on civil engineering or structural engineering courses, and a useful reference tool for related disciplines like architectural or building courses which require a knowledge of all the principal design materials. This book provides a detailed study of the process of design for structural elements, to British standards, in all four building materials: timber, masonry, concrete and steel. The scope of this text is wide and its numerous examples and diagrams should make it an ideal course text.

Recensione

'The author has provided an excellent text for undergraduate students. The book compares favourably with other texts, above all in the number of examples which are typical of industry rather than just academic. This book would be one recommended for the structural design courses at this School particularly because of the 'real examples'...' - David Easterbrook, Senior Lecturer in the School of Civil and Structural Engineering, University of Plymouth
