What is Principles of Structural Design : Wood, Steel, and Concrete about?

<p>Anyone involved with structural design, whether a student or a practicing engineer, must maintain a functional understanding of wood, steel, and concrete design principles.

Organized for ready reference, the book is divided into four main sections.</p> <ul> <li>Part I covers loads, load combinations, and specific code requirements for different types of loads. It elaborates on the LRFD (load resistance factor design) philosophy and the unified approach to design.</li> <li>Part II covers sawn lumber, structural glued laminated timber, and structural composite lumber. It reviews tension, compression, and bending members, as well as the effects of column and beam stabilities and combined forces.</li> <li>Part III
