About the Book

This fourth edition of Structural Design and Drawing consolidates the design features of both reinforced concrete and steel structures with emphasis on the current Indian Standard Code Specifications. It deals at length with most of the commonly used reinforced concrete and steel structures, rationalising the concepts with numerous design examples and exercises. Replete with detailed structural drawings and an exhaustive reference list, the book is ideal for students of civil and structural engineering as well as for teachers and practising engineers.
