Publishing Date: 2005-03-01
Features: This manual, in addition to providing various application data, design calculation methods, calculation examples, and design suggestions for the steel structure design of portal frame light-duty buildings, also includes reference content for the design of low-rise light-duty steel structure residential buildings. The former is based on the "Technical Specification for Steel Structures of Portal Frame Light-Duty Buildings" (CECS120:2002), while the latter is based on foreign materials and the upcoming relevant specifications. The entire book is divided into three parts: Part 1 introduces the materials and basic design requirements for light-duty steel structure applications. Part 2 focuses on the steel structure of portal frame light-duty buildings. Part 3 introduces the application and structural systems of low-rise residential steel structures in Japan and North America.
[Target Audience] This manual is suitable for civil engineering and architectural structure design personnel, as well as civil engineering design, construction technical personnel, and students and teachers of universities and colleges for reference.
