Description
Plastic Analysis and Design of Steel Structures is an authoritative technical resource that explores the principles and applications of plastic theory in modern structural engineering. Written by Ahuja and Doble, this Elsevier Science publication provides engineers and students with essential knowledge for analyzing and designing steel structures using plastic analysis methods.
The book covers fundamental concepts including yield criteria, plastic deformation, and limit analysis theory. It presents detailed methodologies for calculating plastic moments, determining collapse mechanisms, and designing economical steel structures. Readers will find practical examples, design procedures, and real-world applications that bridge theory and engineering practice.
This technical reference is invaluable for structural engineers, graduate students, and professionals involved in steel construction design. The systematic approach enables readers to understand how plastic analysis provides safe and efficient structural designs compared to traditional elastic methods.
