The book covers topics related to education, analysis, sizing, and execution of steel structural works and includes a series of practical application examples.

The theoretical section presents and explains the provisions of the final texts of Eurocodes concerning the analysis and sizing of supports, members, and connections, as well as fire condition checks.

Next, rules for the formation and analysis of multi-story buildings with composite construction are provided, with an emphasis on the analysis of composite slabs, beams, and columns.

The execution topics deal with industrial processing, construction, and quality control. Finally, a series of examples are given for better understanding of the required checks, covering a wide range of applications with explanations at the authors' discretion and suggestions for alternative solutions.
