Connections in steel structures : behaviour, strength and design : proceedings of a state-of-the-art workshop on connections and the behaviour, strength and design of steel structures held at Laborato

This book publishes the proceedings from the third international workshop on connections in steel structures: behaviour, strength and design held in Trento, Italy, 29-31 May 1995. Participation at the workshop was by invitation only and brought together over 50 internationally recognized experts in the field to assess the ongoing research and developments in steel construction, considering connections as key elements. The topics covered included connection modelling, cycling response, frame behaviour, semi-rigid connections, design code criteria, practical implementation and composite construction.
