Reviews


One more McGraw-Hill's handbook
That is one more handbook with a lot of pages full of words, photos and figures that teaches the buyer almost nothing. The only exception is Mr. Hedefine's article about plate bridges.
Save your money.

Not so impressive.
This book is written by various experience P.E. or Professors. It is not emphasis on practical calculation. There are very few example and definitions for formulars and related equation. If reader has no experience before, it would be very difficult to understand. Half of the book is devoted to bridge design, and it dose not provide enough information to design a bridge..

This is not really a how-to book.


Designer in structural steel is a complete book , do not buy
Many eng. firm have this book, this is a good reference for many structural problem, The most difficult for a designer is the simplify the problem, and create model with the forces on it. Merrits book cover a very large utility of different subjets. And this is not a fist edition, no error a have see on this book. The autors for each part of this book is a engineering with many years of experiences on this subjet. For me this is a very good thing, for the knowlege....

Dont hesitate ...
