The revision of this hallmark text on Design of Steel Structures has been done keeping in mind the current scenario in the area. Several changes have been made to make the book more useful and lucid. Three new chapters, many new topics, solved and unsolved problems have been added and reorganization of chapters has been made to cater to the changing requirements of the students.
