<p><b>STEEL DETAILERS' MANUAL</b></br> THIRD EDITION</br> ALAN HAYWARD, FRANK WEARE AND ANTHONY OAKHILL <p>Steel remains the optimum choice for structural projects. Architects, engineers and construction companies turn to steel to provide exciting, stimulating structures which meet the needs of a diverse range of clients, occupiers and users. To remain competitive, steelwork contractors have turned to new technologies to minimise costs and meet tight project deadlines. <p>Steelwork detailing plays a pivotal role in the successful creation of any steel structure. The<i> Steel Detailers' Manual</i> provides an introduction and guide to this essential skill for those in the constructional steelwork industry. <p>The third edition has been revised to take account of some aspects of Eurocode 3 on structural steel work. The new edition also takes account of developments in 3-D modelling techniques and it includes more CAD standard library details. As a highly illustrated guide on structural steelwork detailing, it: <ul> <li>describes the common structural shapes in use and how they are joined to form members and complete structures</li> <li>explains detailing practice and conventions</li> <li>provides detailing data for standard sections, bolts and welds</li> <li>emphasises the importance of tolerances in order to achieve proper site fit-up</li> <li>discusses the important link between good detailing and construction costs</li> </ul> <p>Examples of structures include single and multi-storey buildings, towers and bridges. The detailing shown is suitable in principle for fabrication and erection in many countries, and the sizes shown will act as a guide to preliminary design.
