Steel Design series

Education and high quality textbooks are crucial to developing an interest in steel structures and their benefits for clients, architects and designers. However, despite the need to inspire the industry’s next generation, many textbooks on steel structures are commissioned on a low budget, resulting in material that lacks imagination and tends to feature, at best, moderate illustrations. These textbooks are usually intended for high school and uni- versity level students, as well as designers who are not yet specialised in steel and steel construction. Therefore, it is vital that lecturers have access to up-to-date books that offer clear and concise explanations, while inspiring readers about the possibilities of steel through beautiful graphics and images.
Steel Design is a set of English textbooks translated from the original Dutch that are based on the EN version of Eurocode with differences in nationally defined parame- ters included in an annex. These textbooks are intended for high-school and university level students. The content is applicable to designers who are not specialised in steel and steel construction.
