Ideal for a two-semester course, the text focuses on chemical bonding, crystal structure, mechanical properties, phase transformations, and materials processing for t...

Dit boek behandelt de grondslagen voor het berekenen en toetsen van staalconstructies voor gebouwen volgens NEN-EN 1990 (Eurocode 0), NEN-EN 1991 (Eurocode 1) en NEN-EN 1993 (Eurocode 3) met de bijbehorende Nationale Bijlagen.

• Hoofdstuk 1 behandelt de theorie en achtergronden van NEN-EN 1990 voor wat betreft constructieve veiligheid, betrouwbaarheid en rekenwaarden van de weerstand en de belasting.

• Hoofdstuk 2 gaat over belastingen en vervormingen die zijn omschreven in NEN-EN 1991 en de ...

'Knopen' behandelt het berekenen van geboute en gelaste verbindingen in raamwerken en in buisconstructies volgens NEN-EN 1993 (Eurocode 3).

* Hoofdstuk 1 bespreekt de eigenschappen van verbindingen in raamwerken, waarbij de nadruk ligt op ligger/kolom-verbindingen. Aan de orde komen de classificatie van verbindingen, het modelleren van de verbindingseigenschappen (componentenmethode), de weerstand en stijfheid van de verbinding en de eisen aan de rotatiecapaciteit en de stijfheid.
