Assessment and Refurbishment of Steel Structures

by Zoltan Agocs, Jan Brodniansky, Josef Vican, Jerzy Ziolko

Overview

The material properties, spatial configuration and variation in the construction of steel structures means they often have the potential for reconstruction. This book provides civil engineers with the necessary information to approach projects of reconstruction and reinforcement of steel structures such as buildings, masts, towers, chimneys, storag
