A comprehensive treatment of the design of structural elements, suitable for first and second year undergraduates on civil engineering or structural engineering courses, and a useful reference tool for related disciplines like architectural or building courses which require a knowledge of all the principal design materials. This book provides a detailed study of the process of design for structural elements, to British standards, in all four building materials: timber, masonry, concrete and steel. The scope of this text is wide and its numerous examples and diagrams should make it an ideal course text.
