This highly illustrated manual provides practical guidance on structural steelwork detailing. It: � describes the common structural shapes in use and how they are joined to form members and complete structures � explains detailing practice and conventions � provides detailing data for standard sections, bolts and welds � emphasises the importance of tolerances in order to achieve proper site fit-up � discusses the important link between good detailing and construction costs Examples of structures include single and multi-storey buildings, towers and bridge.
