Reseña del editor

This book features the most current design standards for the wood industry. Load and resistance factor design (LRFD) methods are being used for design analysis to relate more effectively to computer--aided design (CAD) methods. The focus on CAD design systems have become generally accepted, and their impact on design processes are addressed in this book.
