Is there any text book which explains and provides worked out examples for designing off shore structures with API RP 2A? Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: API RP 2A
It appears that you may be starting to work on offshore structures..so you will most likelyt be using softwre like SACS, STRUCAD, SESAM or others..
In these softwares, you will be able to perform all analyses and code checking through software built-in capabilities.
For more detailed studies, you can get a book called "Dynamics of Offshore Structures" but that is a high level analysis background

"The Structural Design of Offshore Jackets" by Dr W. Visser.
ISBN: 1 870553 16 0
It gives a simple explanation of wave loads and gives ways of calculating wave loads on offshore structures relatively quickly so you can check the answers given by your software.

Did you try the website bookfinder.com ? They find new and used books, I've had pretty good luck with finding books I've needed.
