Features: This book provides a detailed introduction to the analysis and design of thin-walled cold-formed steel structures, which have been widely used in building construction and other fields in recent years. It serves as a reference for students, structural engineers, and researchers. The book "Cold-Formed Steel Design," which is highly regarded by professionals worldwide as the most authoritative book in the field, is an invaluable resource for anyone involved in cold-formed steel design and work. No other book can cover the theory and practice of cold-formed steel structures so comprehensively. The third edition of this classic version has been updated and expanded to reflect all major advancements in the field of cold-formed steel over the past decade, offering more details, new technical data, and expert guidance for the optimal utilization of this incredibly versatile material in building construction. As a respected expert in the international field of cold-formed steel, Yu Weiwen utilizes decades of experience in cold-formed steel design, research, and teaching, as well as the development of design codes, to provide guidance on all aspects of cold-formed steel design for the manufacturing, civil engineering, and construction industries. Throughout the book, Yu Weiwen describes the structural performance of cold-formed steel members and connections from both theoretical and practical perspectives and discusses the principles of the AISI design specifications. The third edition of "Cold-Formed Steel Design" features the following: the AISI 1996 Cold-Formed Steel Design Specification and its 1999 supplement; ASD and LRFD methods; new design steps for structural members; new design data for connections and systems; contemporary design criteria from around the world; new computer-aided design technologies. The third edition of "Cold-Formed Steel Design" is a professional reference for structural engineers, manufacturers, construction managers, and architects, as well as an excellent advanced textbook for students and researchers in structural engineering, civil engineering, construction engineering, and related disciplines.
