'The Smithells Metals Reference Book' is one of the best known and most trusted sources of reference for the professional metallurgist or materials scientist, and has been so since its inception in 1949. Drawing upon the data contained within this respected work, and completely updating and revising it where necessary to bring the information completely up to date, the editors have created a new book which is dedicated to the most commonly used and popular light metals. 'The Smithells Light Metals Handbook', with its combination of comprehensive data on properties, standards and international materials specifications coupled with other unique features like the extensive section of binary phase diagrams, will no doubt become a standard reference work for the industrial and theoretical metallurgist. Containing all the data that you will ever need with respect to Aluminium, Magnesium and Titanium, this book will be an invaluable tool for anyone working in the design, manufacture or use of components or raw materials in these areas. more...

Sufficient introductory material has been included in each chapter to enable anyone with a fundamental knowledge of structural mechanics to become familiar with various aspects of the subject. Each of the ten chapters in the book highlights the techniques developed to solve a selected facet of frame instability. Thus the earlier chapters deal principally with the instability of entire frames, as influencing the design of multi-storey structures; the chapters which follow cover a wider range of instability problems, such as those connected with joints, braces, etc., as well as special problems associated with thinwalled structures, arches and portals. The topics chosen for the various chapters reflect the diversity of problems within the general area of frame instability and the range of analytical tools developed in recent years. more...

STEELS provides a metallurgical understanding of commercial steel grades and the design, manufacturing and service requirements that govern their application. The properties of different steels are described, detailing the effect of composition, processing and heat treatment. Where appropriate an introduction is given to standard specifications and design codes provided on component manufacture and property requirements for successful service performance. The book deals with steel products in some depth, in four chapters covering wide strip, structural steels, engineering and stainless steel grades. At the begining of each chapter an overview is given which details important features of the grades and a historical perspective of their development. Also featured are up to date information on steel prices and specifications. David Llewellyn has over thirty years experience in the steel industry and is currently lecturing in the Materials Engineering Department at University College Swansea. '..the book unfolds into an easily readable and a valuable source of highly relevant and contemporary information on steels' - METALS AND MATERIALS. '.. a high quality product from all points of view' - INSTITUTE OF METALS AND MATERIALS AUSTRALASIA features up to date information on steel prices and specifications.
