The definitive guide to stability design criteria, fully updated
and incorporating current research
Representing nearly fifty years of cooperation between Wiley and
the Structural Stability Research Council, the "Guide to Stability
Design Criteria for Metal Structures" is often described as an
invaluable reference for practicing structural engineers and
researchers. For generations of engineers and architects, the Guide
has served as the definitive work on designing steel and aluminum
structures for stability. Under the editorship of Ronald Ziemian
and written by SSRC task group members who are leading experts in
structural stability theory and research, this "Sixth Edition"
brings this foundational work in line with current practice and
research.
The "Sixth Edition" incorporates a decade of progress in the
field since the previous edition, with new features including:
Updated chapters on beams, beam-columns, bracing, plates, box
girders, and curved girders. Significantly revised chapters on
columns, plates, composite columns and structural systems, frame
stability, and arches
Fully rewritten chapters on thin-walled (cold-formed) metal
structural members, stability under seismic loading, and stability
analysis by finite element methods
State-of-the-art coverage of many topics such as shear walls,
concrete filled tubes, direct strength member design method,
behavior of arches, direct analysis method, structural integrity
and disproportionate collapse resistance, and inelastic seismic
performance and design recommendations for various moment-resistant
and braced steel frames
Complete with over 350 illustrations, plus references and
technical memoranda, the "Guide to Stability Design Criteria for
Metal Structures, Sixth Edition" offers detailed guidance and
background on design specifications, codes, and standards
worldwide.
