Abstract :
The design of steel structures involves several stages and procedures and a quick review is needed so that a feel for the way the code is written is obtained. A pilot study dealt with attempting to present rather complex Australian Standard AS4100-1990, steel structures design code to a variety of users of different levels of understanding. This paper reports on progress made since then and demonstrates the CD-ROM based material developed to date
