OverviewConcise but comprehensive, Structural Elements for Architects and Builders is primarily focused on the design and analysis of structural elements: columns, beams, tension members and their connections. The material is organized into a single, self-sufficient volume, including all necessary data for the preliminary design and analysis of these structural elements in wood, steel, and reinforced concrete. Every chapter contains insights developed by the author and generally not found elsewhere. Additionally, the Appendices included at the end of the text contain numerous tables and graphs, based on material contained in industry publications, but reorganized and formatted especially for this text to improve clarity and simplicity, without sacrificing comprehensiveness. Based on the standards and codes from For timber: The American Institute of Timber Construction's (AITC), The American Institute of Steel Construction's (AISC) The American Concrete Institute's (ACI) Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary (ACI 318 and ACI 318R)and the American Society of Civil Engineers Contains graphs, charts, and tables to solve basic structural design problems Step-by-step illustrative examples Cover common connectors such as nails, bolts, and welds Full Product DetailsAuthor: Jonathan Ochshorn , Jonathan OchshornPublisher: Elsevier Science & Technology Imprint: Butterworth-Heinemann Ltd Dimensions: Width: 19.10cm , Height: 3.00cm , Length: 23.50cm Weight: 1.000kg ISBN: 9781856177719ISBN 10: 1856177718 Pages: 387 Publication Date: 22 December 2009 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Hardback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print ![]() This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
