Book Synopsis Architecturally Exposed Structural Steel by : Terri Meyer Boake
Download or read book Architecturally Exposed Structural Steel written by Terri Meyer Boake and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the means for a better control and purposeful consideration of the design of Architecturally Exposed Structural Steel (AESS). It deploys a detailed categorization of AESS and its uses according to design context, building typology and visual exposure. In a rare combination, this approach makes high quality benchmarks compatible with economies in terms of material use, fabrication methods, workforce and cost. Building with exposed steel has become more and more popular worldwide, also as advances in fire safety technology have permitted its use for building tasks under stringent fire regulations. On her background of long standing as a teacher in architectural steel design affiliated with many institutions, the author ranks among the world‘s best scholars on this topic. Among the fields covered by the extensive approach of this book are the characteristics of the various categories of AESS, the interrelatedness of design, fabrication and erection of the steel structures, issues of coating and protection (including corrosion and fire protection), special materials like weathering steel and stainless steel, the member choices and a connection design checklist. The description draws on many international examples from advanced contemporary architecture, all visited and photographed by the author, among which figure buildings like the Amgen Helix Bridge in Seattle, the Shard Observation Level in London, the New York Times Building and the Arganquela Footbridge.
Book Synopsis Design Guide for Concrete-filled Double Skin Steel Tubular Structures by : Lin-Hai Han
Download or read book Design Guide for Concrete-filled Double Skin Steel Tubular Structures written by Lin-Hai Han and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first design guide on concrete filled double skin steel tubular (CFDST) structures. It addresses in particular CFDST structures with plain concrete sandwiched between circular hollow sections, and provides the relevant calculation methods and construction provisions for CFDST structures. These inherit the advantages of conventional concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) structures, including high strength, good ductility and durability, high fire resistance and favourable constructability. Moreover, because of their unique sectional configuration, CFDST structures have been proved to possess lighter weight, higher bending stiffness and better cyclic performance than conventional CFST. Consequently CFDST can offer reduced concrete consumption and construction costs. This design guide is for engineers designing electrical grid infrastructures, wind power towers, bridge piers and other structures requiring light self-weight, high bending stiffness and high bearing capacity.

Book Synopsis Fire Design of Steel Structures by : Jean-Marc Franssen
Download or read book Fire Design of Steel Structures written by Jean-Marc Franssen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-10-10 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains and illustrates the rules that are given in the Eurocodes for designing steel structures subjected to fire. After the first introductory chapter, Chapter 2 explains how to calculate the mechanical actions (loads) in the fire situation based on the information given in EN 1990 and EN 1991. Chapter 3 is dedicated to the models which represent the thermal actions created by the fire. Chapter 4 describes the procedures to be used to calculate the temperature of the steelwork from the temperature of the compartment and Chapter 5 shows how the information given in EN 1993-1-2 is used to determine the load bearing capacity of the steel structure. Chapter 6 presents the essential features that characterize the advanced calculation models, for thermal and mechanical response. The methods used to evaluate the fire resistance of bolted and welded connections are described in Chapter 7. Chapter 8 describes a computer program called `Elefir-EN? which is based on the simple calculation model given in the Eurocode and allows designers to quickly and accurately calculate the performance of steel components in the fire situation. Chapter 9 looks at the issues that a designer may be faced with when assessing the fire resistance of a complete building. This is done via a case study and addresses most of the concepts presented in the previous chapters. For this second edition the content has been revised and extended. The book contains some new sections, e.g. a comparison between the simple and the advanced calculation, as well as additional examples.

Book Synopsis Guidelines for the Construction of Fire-resisting Structural Elements by : W. A. Morris
Download or read book Guidelines for the Construction of Fire-resisting Structural Elements written by W. A. Morris and published by Bre Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results of fire resistance tests carried out on many different types of constructions Have been published by the Fire Research Station, the Timber Research and Development Association (TRADA) and by the Fire Protection Association (FPA). Much information is also readily available from manufacturers, trade organisations and specialist contractors in the fire field. Nevertheless, a need remains for simple generic descriptions of fire-resisting elements. This report sets down guidelines for the fire resistance of elements of structure and includes tables of notional periods of fire resistance based on a consideration of current test data and information. Recent changes made in the formulation of premixed lightweight plasters and work completed on the revisions to BS 476: Part 8 and the British Standard Codes of practice concerning concrete, masonry and timber constructions has necessitated revising both the text and tables of the 1982 edition which is now withdrawn. It is intended to revise the tables as new information becomes available.
