Features: This manual is compiled based on relevant codes and regulations such as the "Code for Design of Steel Structures" (GB50017-2003), the "Technical Code for Cold-Formed Thin-Walled Steel Structures" (GB50018-2002), and the "Technical Specification for Steel Structures of Portal Frame Light Steel Buildings" (CECS102:2002), combined with the latest developments in light steel structures and engineering design achievements in recent years. It is organized according to the needs of construction, design, and construction. The content includes design and calculation data for structural components such as purlins, roof trusses, rigid frames, wall frames, and crane beams, along with representative calculation examples, corresponding construction details, and component layout and section selection tables for forming structural series, which can be directly referenced for design and calculations. In this revision, the manual has been supplemented with design and calculation data for purlins of hot-rolled thin-walled H-section steel and high-frequency welded thin-walled H-section steel, design and calculation data for high-frequency welded thin-walled H-section steel, hot-rolled H-section steel crane beams, and portal frame rigid frames, as well as tables for the axial compressive bearing capacity of single-axis symmetric angle steel composite sections, round steel pipes, and square steel pipes, and tables for the overall stability coefficients of bending members such as cold-formed thin-walled channel steel and Z-shaped steel. The crane beam section includes under-20-ton gantry and bridge crane beams, while the wall beam section includes design for advertising signs. This manual is available for civil engineering building structure professionals engaged in construction, design, and construction technical personnel, as well as for teaching and reference purposes for students and teachers in civil engineering majors at universities.
