This major reference manual covers both overall and detail design of structural timber, including aspects such as shear deflection, creep, dynamic and lateral stability considerations for flexural members. <p> <p> It has been substantially revised to take account of changes since the last edition, nearly 20 years ago, and to include the latest revision of British Standard BS 5268-2 : 2002, which has brought design concepts closer to European practice and Eurocode 5. <p> New features of the Third Edition include: <ul> <li> <div>revised information on bolt values including a consideration of improved performance using 8.8 grade bolts</div> <li> <div>new chapters on composite sections and Eurocode 5 on structural timber</div> <li> <div>new developments in materials and products</div> <li> <div>horizontal roof and floor diaphragms</div> <li> <div>vertical shear walls</div> </ul> <p> <p> The manual continues to provide extensive tables and coefficients that will save the practising engineer many design hours. It will also be of interest as a reference for civil engineering undergraduates and to timber manufacturers. Whilst the design examples in the book are based on BS 5268, a large part of the content will have international appeal, whatever code or standard is being used. <p> <b>From reviews of the last edition</b> <p> <p> "the complete design manual ... a 'must'"<br> –<i>Timber Trades Journal</i> <p> "the manual continues its established position as an authoritative reference and in providing numerous time saving design aids."<br> –<i>Institute of Wood Science Journal</i>
