Design And Analysis Of Steel Structures

This is perhaps the only comprehensive book on Design and Analysis of Steel Structures, covering a very wide range of topics including Timber and Plastic Analysis in a single volume.

The authors are glad to receive warm welcome from the readers to the earlier editions of the book. This favourable response to the book for more than Quarter of Century, has led to the present edition being very much up-dated and re-organised, keeping in view the needs of the students, teachers and practising engineers. This edition is very extensively revised and up-dated, responding to the suggestions from the teachers, students and field engineers alike.
