RE: Most Valuable Steel Design Textbook TFL (Structural)27 Apr 04 13:15ditto salmon and johnson and omar blodgett.
blodgett has some really nice simple approx. solutions. RE: Most Valuable Steel Design Textbook BigH (Geotechnical)27 Apr 04 14:00How can you not include McGuire's tome? Can't remember the exact title but in our day, this was the bible of structural steel design - like Terzaghi and Peck to the dirt guys. RE: Most Valuable Steel Design Textbook CSEllc (Structural)27 Apr 04 22:55Without a doubt the best steel desighn book is Steel Structures - Design and Behavior by Salmon and Johnson. It was my textbook (2nd edition......still teaching ASD way back then) in school about 20 years ago. To this day i refer to it. The amount of information in the book is undescipable. Just when you think you can't find that info anywhere, look in this book and you'll find it.
My other favorites are 2)Structural Engineers Handbook by Gaylord and Gaylord, 3)Structural Steel Designer's Handbook by Brockenbrough and Merritt, 4) Design of Welded Structures by Blodgett, 5) Handbook of Structural Steel Connection Design and Details by Tamboli, and 6) this is an oldie but definitely a goody to have in your library, if you can find it - Structural Engineers Handbook by Milo Ketchum RE: Most Valuable Steel Design Textbook jheidt2543 (Civil/Environmental)28 Apr 04 18:31I agree with everyone else on "Steel Structures - Design and Behavior" by Salmon and Johnson. I had Chuck Salmon as an advisor and R/C teacher. He is a real first class gentleman and a great teacher. I also lucked out because the class ahead of me got his book in mimographed sheets, before it was published as a book!
As everyone has noted above, don't plan to rely on just one reference book, as good as it may be. It is a real help, especially for the unusual problems, to have a couple of points of view. RE: Most Valuable Steel Design Textbook denoid (Structural)29 Apr 04 18:07I also agree on Salmon & Johnson, and Blodgett.
Jheidt2543: I, too, had Chuck Salmon as an advisor in the early 1970's @ UW-Madison. I also had John Johnson as my beginning Steel Structures teacher. I concur with your assessment of Chuck - nice man. I had some issues with Mr. Johnson, but not related to his teaching ability.
On Wisconsin! RE: Most Valuable Steel Design Textbook connect2 (Structural)30 Apr 04 17:43Salmon & Johnson and Blodgett for sure ... main stay
Might also suggest 'Guide to Stability Design Criteria for Metal Structures', Structural Stability Research Council, Editor T.V. Galambos, John Wiley & Sons Publishers. i'm stuck at the 4th edition because i'm tired,... but an excellent source of background theory, odd ball stuff ( they boon of my practice), and full of vital references. My 2, you know it just dawned on me there is no cents symbol on a computer keyboard, its probably a similiar kind of thing to my 4th ed. of SSRC Guide ... ah well its friday. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1406030293255-2'); }); Red Flag This PostPlease let us know here why this post is inappropriate.

Since bolts can be removed and reassembled, they are often preferred by civil engineers in steel structures. Bolt root (minor) diameter, in other words, the least diameter of the bolt should be considered for most of the bolted connection design. In this case, the designer either takes the root diameter from the tables or calculates it using complex equations. Therefore, practical linear equations for both Standard Metric and Inch Based American bolts with sufficient accuracy were derived. It is claimed that these equations can save the designer from being dependent on the tables or memorizing complex equations.

Multi-storey steel buildings are usually designed with rigid connections between beams and columns or with simple hinged connections and a stiffening system. The paper focuses on the 3D structural design of multi-storey steel buildings including floor slabs and shear walls. The method of numerical modelling has been applied to investigate the influence of rigid connections between certain structural elements on the lateral stiffness of the multi-storey building structure, when floor slabs and shear walls are considered in the structural design. Four building heights and six structural system types, having the same floor plan have been examined. 3D numerical models have been configured in FEM software to evaluate the lateral stiffness of the structures exposed to gravity and seismic loads. The maximum horizontal deflections and natural periods of vibrations are presented in the paper. It has been concluded that the connection type in the multi-storey steel structure has no significant influence on the lateral stiffness of the structure when structural design considers floor slabs and shear walls.
Accelerated bridge construction techniques, warm-mix asphalt and adaptive signal control technology are among the innovations state highway agencies plan to use on the latest round of Highways for LIFE demonstration projects.
"At a time when states are facing serious budgetary constraints, these grants will help fill a critical need," said FHWA Administrator Victor Mendez. "Investments like these are immediate and long-lasting and will help create jobs."
For each project, the state highway agency will set customer-based performance goals and use proven innovations it has never or rarely used to improve safety and quality, speed construction and enhance user satisfaction. Since 2006, Highways for LIFE has provided incentives for 60 projects in 37 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.
The Colorado Department of Transportation will use accelerated bridge construction techniques and a new method of project delivery known as construction management/general contracting when it replaces the Pecos Street Bridge over Interstate 70 in Denver. That's expected to limit the impact of the project on the traveling public to 50 hours versus the 12 months it would take to rebuild the bridge using conventional methods. A new roundabout interchange will enhance safety and capacity.
Warm-mix asphalt with polymer-modified binder will be used to improve durability and rut resistance when the Connecticut DOT refurbishes a high-volume section of I-95 in Guilford. Warm-mix asphalt, produced at lower temperatures than hot-mix asphalt, also saves energy. The agency will try the Safety Edge technique for the first time to improve roadway safety and the durability of the pavement edge.
When the Georgia DOT rehabilitates pavement in historic downtown Winder, it will use precast concrete pavement systems to reduce construction impact on traffic and enhance safety for motorists and workers. Using precast panels, cast off site and quickly installed at night, will allow the street to be opened to pedestrians and vehicles during the day. Improved user satisfaction is expected because of faster construction, longer pavement life and fewer future repairs.
The Idaho Transportation Department will replace a bridge over the East Fork of the Salmon River in Custer County entirely with precast concrete bridge elements. Construction time is limited at this remote location because of weather, and using precast elements will eliminate at least one construction season and one winter shutdown compared to conventional construction, as well as improve safety and quality.
In its first major work zone ITS project, the Kansas DOT will use real-time traffic data to advise travelers on traffic conditions in the vicinity of I-35 interchange construction in Johnson County. That will enable motorists to choose an alternate route before entering the work zone and enhance safety. It will also allow the highway agency to document the benefits of work zone ITS systems for possible use on future projects.
In a bridge project, the Maryland State Highway Administration will use self-propelled modular transporters to move two prefabricated superstructures built in the median into place over Maryland 295 in Anne Arundel County during a single weekend road closure of 34 hours. Using conventional construction techniques would involve more than a year's worth of traffic disruption.
Self-propelled modular transporters will also be used on a Minnesota project to replace a bridge over I-35 in St. Paul over a weekend. Using this technology will enable the Minnesota DOT to reduce the project's impact on interstate traffic by 75 percent compared to conventional construction, as well as enhance safety and user satisfaction.
The New Hampshire DOT plans to include several innovations it has never tried before on a resurfacing project on NH Route 101 in Rockingham County to extend pavement life and reduce the need for future repairs. They include using reclaimed asphalt pavement, warm-mix asphalt, an asphalt-rubber wearing surface mixture and a high-polymer modified asphalt wearing surface. The agency will use a Safety Edge treatment to minimize roadway departure crashes and smart work zone techniques to improve safety on the job.
To improve traffic flow and enhance safety, the New Jersey DOT will install an adaptive signal control system on a high-traffic section of NJ 28 in Somerset County. The system is designed to ease congestion caused by poor coordination of the 10 signalized intersections in the corridor. Adaptive signal control technology adjusts the timing of lights to accommodate changing traffic patterns.
The New York State DOT will disrupt traffic for two weekends rather than two construction seasons when it replaces two bridges on I-84 in Putnam County near the New York-Connecticut border. Accelerated bridge construction techniques planned for the project include rolling prefabricated bridge superstructures into place over the weekend. The project will also use super-high-performance concrete and stainless steel reinforcement to enhance durability. 152ee80cbc
