555Preface
There are a number of excellent books available which deal with the
design of structural steel elements but, in the author’s view, they lack
certain important features. The design of structural steel members
requires many checks in a systematic, structured manner: this book
has been written to provide a step-by-step approach to this task with
a view to achieving completeness of the design process in all respects.
This highly prescriptive approach provides a comprehensive book
which is at the same time user friendly. The task of quality assurance
becomes less arduous and the output of a design office becomes fully
standardised if the approach in this book is strictly followed. For
students, too, the book should prove to be invaluable because the
essential elements of the theory of structures and analysis are dis-
cussed, followed by a structured approach to the design of all elements
in a building, including connections. The numerous worked examples
will be very useful to practitioners, students and lecturers alike.
The design principles are illustrated at each stage by sketeches. The
extensive use of illustrations is a particular feature of the book and is
intended to clarify ambiguities in the codes of practice
