This book addresses the detailed analysis and design of structures under fire loads through the basic concepts. While fire and explosion characteristics of materials are discussed in detail, an estimate of fire load and integration to fire-resistant design is the main focus. The detailed design procedures include practical examples of various design codes from around the world. The scope of Fire-Resistant Design of Structures includes discussions related to the estimate of fire loads, analysis and design of structural members under fire, fire protection and firefighting systems, working principles, and suitability for various industrial applications. It provides comprehensive coverage regarding the analysis and design of structural systems under fire loads, in particular, and under elevated temperatures, in general.Features:Provides an understanding of fire loads, analysis, and design of various structural membersIncludes detailed design methods and model studiesCovers in detail different types of firefighting equipment and their functions and applications

Maritime Structures: Analysis, Design, and Construction examines the intersection of structural form, analysis, and design with recent updates on these perspectives. Written for a wide spectrum of readers, the book presents fundamental learning materials for graduate students, researchers, and practicing professionals. It emphasizes three main principles: basics, applications, and recent advancements, and discusses how they influence the design, construction, and maintenance of maritime structures. It blends physical analogy with engineering design and encourages interdisciplinary thinking. Includes end-of-chapter problems and a solutions manual for adopting instructors.Promotes a shift from traditional math-intensive instruction to simple, classroom-style explanations for maritime structures.Presents a unique combination of theory, application, and updated design philosophy.

This book provides detailed analysis methods and design guidelines for fire resistance, a vital consideration for offshore processing and production platforms. It creates a basis for designing new courses for students of ocean engineering and naval architecture, civil engineering, and applied mechanics at both undergraduate and graduate levels.
