This book is intended for classroom teaching in architectural and
civil engineering at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
Although it has been developed from lecture notes given in
structural steel design, it can be useful to practicing engineers.
Many of the examples presented in this book are drawn from the
field of design of structures. Design of Steel Structures can be
used for one or two semesters of three hours each on the
undergraduate level. For a two-semester curriculum, Chapters 1
through 8 can be used during the first semester. Heavy emphasis
should be placed on Chapters 1 through 5, giving the student a
brief exposure to the consideration of wind and earthquakes in the
design of buildings. With the new federal requirements vis a vis
wind and earthquake hazards, it is beneficial to the student to
have some under standing of the underlying concepts in this field.
In addition to the class lectures, the instructor should require
the student to submit a term project that includes the complete
structural design of a multi-story building using standard design
procedures as specified by AISC Specifications. Thus, the use of
the AISC Steel Construction Manual is a must in teaching this
course. In the second semester, Chapters 9 through 13 should be
covered. At the undergraduate level, Chapters 11 through 13 should
be used on a limited basis, leaving the student more time to
concentrate on composite construction and built-up girders."
