FLEXIBLE APPROACH OFFERS YOU THE OPTION TO TEACH LRFD OR ASD: This book is designed so that you can easily teach either LRFD (Load and Resistance Factor Design), ASD (Allowable Stress Design) or both approaches. This edition does emphasize LRFD as the most recent and applicable of the two approaches, however, most examples incorporate both LRFD and ASD solutions.
END-OF-CHAPTER PROBLEMS PROVIDE HANDS-ON LRFD OR ASD PRACTICE WITH ANSWER KEYS: When appropriate, the required approach is specified within the statement of the problem. Plus, for your convenience, answers are provided within the book for key problems so readers can easily check their comprehension.
BLENDS MEANINGFUL PRACTICE WITH AN EMPHASIS ON THEORY: Although this book is oriented toward practical design, the authors present the supporting theory to ensure students have the complete understanding necessary for engineering success.
