Description
This book is aimed at developing elementary analysis skills, familiarity and an intuitive feel for composite construction that is required
by undergraduate and graduate students, and by structural engineers. It does not require a prior knowledge of advanced analysis and design
techniques, and builds on simple concepts such as statics and the mechanics of materials. A topic is first introduced by a brief description,
with numerous carefully-chosen examples forming an integral part of the main text. Working through the examples allows the reader to
gain a full understanding of the subject, as a technique is illustrated by its application to designing new structures, or in the important
area of assessing and upgrading existing structures.
The techniques described for the analysis of standard structures form a basis
for understanding the way composite structures work, and these techniques are applied to many non-standard forms of composite construction
that are not, or rarely, covered in national standards. The book is an essential purchase for all undergraduate and postgraduate students
of structural/civil engineering and architecture, as well as all practising structural and civil engineers.
Audience
Undergraduate and postgraduate coursework students of structural/civil engineering and architecture; practising structural and civil engineers worldwide.
