Editorial Reviews

Proceedings of the December 1994 symposium, fundamentally supported by CIDECT (Comite International pour le Dveloppement et l'Etude de la Construction Tubulair) and IIW Subcommission XV-E, Welded Joints in Tubular Structures. Traditional areas of static and fatigue strength of connections are extended by reports of quality laboratory tests and finite element calculations. There are papers collating world data on strength and design formulae. A burgeoning area of beam-to-column connections in building frames using tubular column is well represented. New areas of emphasis are hollow and void filled sections used in vehicle frames, and the incremental collapse of framed structures under high amplitude repeated load. No index. Annotation c.
