Structural Steelwork


Preface to the third edition

This is the third edition of the Structural Steelwork: Design to Limit State Theory

by T.J. MacGinley and T.C. Ang, which proved to be very popular with both students

and practising engineers. The change of authorship was forced upon by the

deceased of Mr T.J. MacGinley. All the chapters have been updated and rearranged

to comply with the latest revision of the BS 5950-1:2000 Structural use of steelwork

in building - Part 1: Code of practice for design rolled and welded sections, it

may be used as a stand-alone text or in conjunction with BS 5950. The book contains

detailed explanation of the principles underlying steel design and is intended

for students reading for civil and/or structural engineering degrees in universities.

It should be useful to final year students involved in design projects and also

sufficiently practical for practising engineers and architects who require an introduction

to the latest revision of BS 5950. Every topic is illustrated with fully

worked examples and problems are also provided for practice.
