"Thoroughly covers local buckling of thin steel plates."
―Theodore Karavasilis, associate professor, School of Engineering, University of Warwick, UK
"This book covers the traditional teaching materials on steel and composite structures. The accounts on the use of Australian standards, in particular, over the wind actions are thoroughly assessed. This book provides a solid foundation for those who exercise Australian standards in their daily works."
―Dr. Tak-Ming Chan, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, China and University of Warwick, Coventry, UK
