This book examines the ways in which aluminium and its alloys
satisfy the requirements of civil engineering structures and the
applications in which they compete with steel. The first chapter
presents aluminium alloys from the metallurgical and technological
points of view which helps the engineer to understand the different
designations and fabrication processes of alloys. In the second
chapter aluminium alloys are presented as structural materials, the
main differences from steel being emphasized from both the
mechanical and cross-sectional properties points of view. The third
chapter is devoted to specification aspects and provides the
general lines of different international codes on safety, load and
design criteria. Chapters four and five provide methods of analysis
of welded connections and bolted connections, respectively,
together with the presentation of different types of joint.
Strength of members is examined in chapter six. References are
provided at the end of each chapter. In this second edition,
completely new chapters on fatigue design and fire resistance are
included, and the chapter on stability is divided in two to take
account of the new coverage of cylindrical
