Engineer's Guide to Fabricating volumes 1 and 2 hardcopy and ebook
Additional details
The two volumes of the ‘Engineers Guide to fabricating steel structures’ books form an important reference for engineers, details, constructors and other stakeholders who need to both understand fabrication processes and the choices that need to be made in both designing and procuring steel structures. These new editions have been extensively updated with current references, fabrication techniques and alignment with contemporary Australian Standards. Importantly, the context of the recently published AS/NZS 5131:2016 ‘Structural steelwork – Fabrication and erection’ has been extensively incorporated, making these documents a most useful reference to those wishing to understand the processes behind the requirements in AS/NZS 5131. Volume 1 ‘Fabrication Methods’ provides the important background information on a range of different fabrication methods, which is a handy reference for those required to understand fabrication to the extent necessary to undertake workshop or site inspection of fabricated steel structures. The steel material properties and procurement aspects are also extensively covered.
Volume 2 ‘Successful fabricated steel structures’ considers the design context and how decisions made by the designer can influence the properties and behaviour of the final steel structure. Welded connection detailing, fatigue, steel members and connections, residual stress and distortion, inspection and testing and management of fabrication quality are all covered, providing a solid grounding for all stakeholders.
