Structural steel work / Sudershan Kumar.

By: Kumar, Sudershan.
New Delhi, India : Venus Books, 2023Description: viii, 291 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.ISBN: 9789395431095.Subject(s): Steel, Structural | Building, Iron and steelDDC classification: 624.1821 K96
Contents:
1. Structural steel work. 2. Analysis and design of beams 3. Steel construction material 4. Structural frames for buildings 5. The Development of construction plans 6. Structural engineer 7. Classification of structural materials 8. Prestressed concrete and steel for prestressing
Summary: Steel structures can be easily repaired and retrofitted to carry higher loads. Steel is also a very eco-friendly material and steel structures can be easily dismantled and sold as scrap. Thus the lifecycle cost of steel structures, which includes the cost of construction, maintenance, repair and dismantling, can be less than that for concrete structures. Since steel is produced in the factory under better quality control, steel structures have higher reliability and safety. To get the most benefit out of steel, steel structures should be designed and protected to resist corrosion and fire. They should be designed and detailed for easy fabrication and erection. Good quality control is essential to ensure proper fitting of the various structural elements. Steel is a term given to alloys containing a high proportion of iron with some carbon. Other alloying elements may also be present in varying proportions. The properties of steel are highly dependent on the proportions of alloying elements, so that their levels are closely controlled during its manufacture. The properties of steel also depend on the heat treatment of the metal. Steel is an alloy of iron and other elements such as carbon. It is one of the most commonly used materials used in the construction industry due to its proven strength and durability. Steel construction has many advantages; an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, the ability to join metals together easily, the ability to form efficient shapes, and so on. Structural steelwork is generally used to form a 'skeleton' frame of a building or other built asset, typically consisting of columns and beams which are riveted, bolted or welded together. The book provides guidance for students of structural and civil engineering and is also sufficiently informative for practising engineers and architects who need an introduction to the Eurocodes.
