Steel Connection Design

[dhoward26]

Looking for a good book with extensive examples for steel connection design. I currently have the LRFD Steel Design 3rd Edition, which works well. Any other suggestions?

Thank you for your help,

Derek

I have this one:

Handbook of Structural Steel Connection Design and Details
Ackbar R. Tamboli, P.E. FASCE, Editor
McGraw-Hill
(c)1999
ISBN 0-07-061497-0

It has lots of great connection details with line drawings.

The AISC 13th edition comes with the CD called "AISC Construction manual companion v13.0" and included on this is a series of AISC design examples. This will have most of what you will find published anywhere else.
They currently offer it in PDF for Free here -

If you need HSS connection you can get the AISC HSS design guide #24

Design of Welded Structures by Blodgett is a good reference for analyzing welded connections.
