This book provides practising SA structural design engineers with the background to and justification for the changes proposed in the new SANS 10160 standard.

"The publication of SANS 10160 will be the culmination of a period of concerted effort by a SAICE working group to review various modern structural design standards around the world and having done so, the working group proposed a revision of SABS 0160 which will align with the SA standard with the most suitable of these international standards."
