Steel is very trendy. This can be seen not only with the growing number of skyscrapers in Asia; the material is also increasingly used in surface design. This publication about steel in construction is aimed at the promotion of steel as favoured construction and building material giving all necessary information to enable planers and decision makers to base their project conceptions and pre-design on steel solutions. You will find in this book: Designing steel structures The basics of construction The 21st century paradigm -High Performance Green Buildings The economic benefits of steel in construction Steel products and fabrication. https://www.amazon.com/Featuring-Detail-Development-Michael-Davies/dp/3920034325
