Book Commentary on the Prescriptive Method for Residential Cold Formed Steel Framing

Download or read book Commentary on the Prescriptive Method for Residential Cold Formed Steel Framing written by Nader R. Elhajj and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2000-05 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use of cold formed steel framing in the residential market has increased over the past years. Its price stability, consistent quality, similarity to conventional framing, successes in the commercial market, & resistance to fire, rot, & termites have attracted the attention of many builders. However, lack of prescriptive construction requirements has prevented this alternative material from gaining wider acceptance among home builders & code officials. This handbook provides background, engineering assumptions & methods, & detailed calculations for this method. Illustrated.

Book Residential Steel Design and Construction

Download or read book Residential Steel Design and Construction written by John H. Hacker and published by McGraw-Hill Professional Publishing. This book was released on 1998 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design and build energy-efficient steel-framed houses-as a practical alternative to wood. As high-quality wood becomes scarcer and more expensive, residential builders are turning to steel as the building material of choice. Now you can improve your bottom line by learning to design and build steel-framed residential structures that are energy efficient, low in cost, and easy to build. Using examples from award-winning houses, this clear, step-by-step guide provides everything a residential contractor needs to know to build a steel-framed house--quickly and easily. You'll discover how to select the right materials and tools. . .use energy-efficient HVAC units, appliances, and lighting. . .choose the best windows and doors. . .and optimize landscaping and solar design. The book will enable you to: overcome steel's thermal deficiencies through proper design and insulation--and surpass the energy efficiency of traditional building materials; conduct your own Model Energy Code energy analysis for compliance with HUD regulations; explore CABO- and UBC-approved steel framing details for a complete two-bedroom house plan. With lots of money-saving tips on ordering and using proper building materials--plus professional advice on applying traditional and new methods of interior and exterior insulation--this is the most complete and practical resource available on a subject of increasing importance to residential builders and designers.

Book Thin Walled Structures Advances and Developments

Download or read book Thin Walled Structures Advances and Developments written by J. Zaras and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2001-06-18 with total page 779 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers presented at the Third International Conference on Thin-Walled Structures, Cracow, Poland on June 5-7, 2001. There has been a substantial growth in knowledge in the field of Thin-Walled Structures over the past few decades. Lightweight structures are in widespread use in the Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautical, Automobile, Chemical and Offshore Engineering fields. The development of new processes, new methods of connections, new materials has gone hand-in-hand with the evolution of advanced analytical methods suitable for dealing with the increasing complexity of the design work involved in ensuring safety and confidence in the finished products.Of particular importance with regard to the analytical process is the growth in use of the finite element method. This method, about 40 years ago, was confined to rather specialist use, mainly in the aeronautical field, because of its requirements for substantial calculation capacity. The development over recent years of extremely powerful microcomputers has ensured that the application of the finite element method is now possible for problems in all fields of engineering, and a variety of finite element packages have been developed to enhance the ease of use and the availability of the method in the engineering design process.
