Publications spotlight - Behaviour and Design of Steel Structures to AS 4100

Emeritus Professor Nick Trahair and former Usyd student (and now Federation Fellow at UNSW) Prof Mark Bradford have produced one of the world's leading books on the behaviour of steel structures.

The behaviour of steel structures and the criteria used in their design are set out in detail in this book. The book bridges the gap between the methods of analysis and the sizing of structural components. The basis of the limit state design criteria of the latest Australian code for structural steel are explained, and the reader is pointed to the relevant provisions of the code.
