  • Emphasis on determining nominal strength so that an instructor can teach LRFD or ASD or both with little additional effort.
  • Every example is completed for both LRFD and ASD with a presentation format that makes the distinction easy to observe.
  • All examples formatted to highlight appropriate steps in the process. Includes consistent problem-solving procedure in examples, to reinforce good problem-solving practices
  • Homework problems at the end of each chapter are given so that either LRFD or ASD provisions may be assigned.
