Features: This book systematically elaborates on the elastic and elastoplastic stability theories of axial compression, bending, and bending compression members in steel structures, considering the influence of geometric imperfections of members and residual stress distributions on section stability performance. It introduces calculation methods for stability-bearing capacity in steel structure design using elastic and elastoplastic stability theories, integrating the relevant content of steel structure stability design from China's newly revised Steel Structure Design Code GB50017-2002 and Cold-formed Thin-walled Steel Structure Technical Code GB50018-2002. The book also systematically presents the theoretical foundations and calculation methods for steel structure stability design from the revised American Steel Construction Load and Resistance Factor Design Code AISCLRFD99 and Cold-formed Thin-walled Steel Structure Design Code AISI96, as well as the characteristics of stability design in Japan's Steel Structure Design Guidelines AIJ98.
