Review :
"From design loads determination and building codes, to various design philosophies, to load distribution and load paths, the student is given a road-map for designing a structure that answers their common question of 'where do I begin?'... It is concise and focuses on applications rather than extensive theoretical background and current research..." --Caesar Abi Shdid, Ph.D., P.E., Lebanese American University, Beirut, Lebanon "...a valuable source that provides efficient and authoritative guidance for students learning the fundamentals of codes and standards in structural material design." --Dr. Peggi L. Clouston, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA "... a comprehensive book covering design criteria, computation of loads, and design of structural members and connections using steel, concrete, and wood. When tied with structural analysis and modeling tools, the book provides the reader with a path for understanding and designing structural systems." --Prof. S. D. Rajan, Arizona State University, Phoenix, USA
