Customer Reviews

Formally an excellent structural steel book.

I used the 3rd edition while in engineer school and found it to be an excellent book. It made learning the subject easy and interesting. The text book explainations are written clearly and the examples are very helpful. It was also a great reference book. I was checking to see if there was a recent edition that covers the newer structural design methods but, unfortunately, the book is no longer updated and appears to be completly out of print. I imagine this text book now is mostly obsolescent.
