This book publishes the proceedings from the Third International Workshop on Connections in Steel Structures: Behaviour, Strength and Design held in Trento, Italy, 29-31 May 1995. The workshop brought together the world's foremost experts in steel connections research, development, fabrication and design. The scope of the papers reflects state-of-the-art issues in all areas of endeavour, and manages to bring together the needs of researchers as well as designers and fabricators. Topics of particular importance include connections for composite (steel-concrete) structures, evaluation methods and reliability issues for semi-rigid connections and frames, and the impact of extreme loading events such as those imposed by major earthquakes. The book highlights novel methods and applications in the field and ensures that designers and other members of the construction industry gain access to the new results and procedures.

Hardbound. The International Conference on Advances in Structural Dynamics was organised by the Department of Civil and Structural Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, and held in Hong Kong from 13-15 December, 2000. The Conference aimed to provide an international forum for scientists, researchers, engineers, and other professionals to present and discuss recent advances in the theory and application of structural dynamics. These two volumes of proceedings contain 10 invited keynote papers, 40 special theme papers, and 134 contributed papers from over 20 countries around the world. These papers cover a wide spectrum of topics: dynamics of bridges, dynamics of special structures and members, earthquake engineering, health monitoring and damage detection, nonlinear and stochastic dynamics, vibration control and smart materials, and wind engineering.

Regarded as a "must have" design aid for engineers, designers, fabricators and other specifiers of structural steel, the Design Capacity Tables for Structural Steel (DCT) provides information for the design and detailing of structural steel members and connections. Data is presented in the limit states format of AS 4100. Volume 1 of the DCT contains information on the readily available range of "open" structural steel sections (WB,WC, UB, UC, PFC, TFC, TFB, EA & UA). Also included are BHP Grade 300PLUSTM, the new "Lean Beams", and incorporation of Amendments 1 and 2 to AS 4100. Significant enhancements have been made to the second edition, including improved table layout and easy to read design curves. Data in the DCT includes: dimensions and section properties; design section capacities; values for fire design; and design capacities for members subject to bending, shear, bearing, axial compression, axial tension and combined actions. Also included are design capacities for bolts, welds and floor plates; elastic buckling loads; detailing parameters; section properties for gantry girders and rails; and useful tables for angles subjects to flexural loadings about their rectangular axes (restrained and unrestrained) and angles in trusses. Volume 2 of the DCT (DCTv2ed2) provides up-to-date information on the full range of Australian manufactured hollow sections complying with AS 1163. Additionally, the 1998 version of AS 4100 included some significant changes to the hollow section design provisions. These changes have also been incorporated in DCTv2ed2. Other features of DCTv2ed2 include tables associated with section properties, surface areas, telescoping sections, maximum design loads for simply supported beams with full lateral restraint, design section moment (including torsion) and web capacities, design moment capacities for members without full lateral restraint and design member capacities in axial compression/tension. The text includes data used to generate the tables, information relevant to common applications, useful examples and noting of clauses/equations in AS 4100 which are specific to hollow sections.

Cold formed structural members are being used more widely in routine structural design as the world steel industry moves from the production of hot-rolled section and plate to coil and strip, often with galvanised and/or painted coatings. Steel in this form is more easily delivered from the steel mill to the manufacturing plant where it is usually cold-rolled into open and closed section members.This book not only summarises the research performed to date on cold form tubluar members and connections but also compares design rules in various standards and provides practical design examples.
