[Stee Design] JOINT DETAILING OF STEEL HOLLOW SECTIONS.
*JOINT DETAILING OF STEEL HOLLOW SECTIONS* Detailing of joints in steel structure is as much important as detailing of main structural members. Ultimately loads from structures are transferred to different structural members through joints. So, a good detailing of joints in steel structure is required to make the structure safe for the given loads. Here we will discuss about the...
