Piquing student interest in structural steel design

The best-selling textbook Structural Steel Design addresses the fundamentals of structural steel design for students pursuing careers in engineering and construction. Presented in an easy-to-read, student-friendly style, the 6th Edition conforms to the latest specifications of the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) and AISC Steel Construction Manual. While the material is prepared for an introductory junior or senior course, the last several chapters may be used for a graduate class. The material is best suited to students with a basic understanding of the mechanics of materials and structural analysis.
