Guide Specifications for Highway Bridge Fabrication with HPS70W Steel
This guide is an addendum to ANSI/AASHTO/AWS D1.5 Bridge Welding Code (BWC-3)
This guide limits discussion to the fabrication and welding techniques that have been proven to date to be successful when fabricating bridges with HPS70W steels. This guide is intended to provide measure to fabricate bridges with ASTM A 709 Grade HPS70W steels using procedures that will optimize the finished bridge. The guide limits welding procedures to submerged arc (SAW) and shielded metal arc (SMAW) welding processes at present because they were the only methods that have been studied to date. In addition, the guide limits SAW consumables to only those which have been demonstrated through research to be used successfully.

FEMA 356 - Pre-standard and Commentary for the Seismic Rehabilitation of Buildings
The completion of the pre-standard is the first step in turning FEMA 356 into an ASCE/American National Standards Institute (ANSI) approved national consensus standard. In the process, recent research results and technical advancements have been incorporated into the pre-standard when deemed appropriate by the project team and approved by the ASCE Standards Committee on Seismic Rehabilitation. Users of FEMA 356 need to be aware that the ASCE Standards Committee on Seismic Rehabilitation of Buildings has unanimously voted to accept this pre-standard as the basis of a voluntary consensus standard, which upon its completion will be suitable for reference by building codes and inclusion in contracts.
Free copies are now available from the FEMA Distribution Center at 1-800-480-2520.

 LRFD Steel Design
Segui
This new edition of a successful textbook closely reflects ongoing changes in the 1993 AISC LRFD Specification that were the basis for the 1994 LRFD Manual of Steel Construction, Second Edition. This revision includes entirely new or revised problem sets and contains the provisions of the latest high-strength bolt specification as-well-as other new material. The author has provided a lucid text with well-explained examples. The 10 chapters of the book include the subjects covered in a traditional steel course (in the first seven chapters). Advanced topics in the later chapters are eccentric connections, composite construction and plate girders. Plastic design and Allowable Stress Design are covered in brief and concise appendices. The book contains 106 examples and 308 problems, which would be valuable to those designers making the transition from ASD to LRFD methods. 1999, PWS Publishing Co. (619 pp.)

Steel Structures: Controlling Behavior Through Design
Englekirk
This textbook presents steel design in a unique way as it ties structural behavior with the decision process of analysis and design. The book is non-traditional as it covers the topics of materials, flexure and stability respectively in its first three chapters. The final three chapters review the design process as a series of rational decision-making steps. The author emphasizes the role of inelastic deformation in controlling structure behavior. For designers who need to strengthen their understanding of seismic design in steel, this book is strongly recommended. 1994, John Wiley and Sons. (807 pp.)
