<br/><br/> "This book is for persons interested in the design of steel structures for buildings.  Because some readers may not be well versed in engineering analysis, applied mechanics, and fundamentals of structural behaviors, [the author] have kept the mathematics, computational procedures, and general analytical complexity at a relatively undemanding level.  This book is not essentially about performing computations, but about designing structures, which encompasses many things beyond the mathematical investigations of behaviors." - Preface to the seventh edition.
