Includes bibliographical references and index.
Ch. 1. Lateral load resisting systems for steel buildings --
ch. 2. Lateral load-resisting systems for composite buildings --
ch. 3. Gravity systems for steel buildings --
ch. 4. Gravity systems for composite buildings --
5. Wind loads --
ch. 6. Seismic design --
ch. 7. Seismic provisions for structural steel buildings, ANSI/AISC 341-10 --
ch. 8. Seismic rehabilitation of existing steel buildings --
ch. 9. Special topics --
ch. 10. Connection details.
As software skills rise to the forefront of design concerns, the art of structural conceptualization is often minimized. Structural engineering, however, requires the marriage of artistic and intuitive designs with mathematical accuracy and detail. Computer analysis works to solidify and extend the creative idea or concept that might have started out as a sketch on the back of an envelope
