Dear All,
I purchased one copy of the book from "Sapna Online". Readability has well been improved for the new edition. Many new features were seen incorporated. Design Aids given in the appendix looks very useful. I didn't go deep into the details, as only yesterday I received it. Anyway, it is a praiseworthy venture by NS Sir. The book looks an indispensable one for those who want to learn and practise structural steel design.

Regards,
E S Jayakumar

Thank you Er Vivek for your posting about the new edition of my book, which has been released by Oxford University Press as a separate book with the modified title: DESIGN OF STEEL STRUCTURES- Limit States Method. I also thank you very much for contributing a chapter on  Design of Steel Enabling Structures which will be of immense importance to practicing Engineers!

Thank you Er Naga and Er Jayakumar for your kind words! Happy to note that Er Jayakumar could get a copy of the book online, as some in Delhi are finding it difficult to get.

I received help from numerous of persons, whom I have acknowledged in the Preface of the book. I take this opportunity to thank again another Sefian Er Kumar Abhishek Singh for cross-checking the examples!

Best wishes and warm regards,
Subramanian

Dear SEFIans,

I am glad to know that another book from the "Gem" is getting ready to be released in June 2019. After the two celebrated  design books on RCC and Steel, he now deviates the path to author a book on "Building Materials", which is a very fundamental subject of Civil Engineering. Going through the "contents" of the book, the book appears to have a very comprehensive coverage of the subject, and  incorporated  the latest innovations in the field of Building Materials. I hope, Civil / Architecture Engineering Students and practising Engineers will be equal beneficiaries of this book.

E S Jayakumar

Dear  Engr.  Jayakumar ,

Thanks for bringing this new work of Dr. N.
Subramanian to our attention .  Just to remind old timers like me , when I started my job in 1970 we use to have

for a Concrete buildings :

Footings   F'c   = 3000.0 psi

Super Structure Frame  F'c = 5000.0 psi

Now they are using Super Structure Frame  F'c = 15000.0 psi

I did steel buildings  with FY = 33.0 ksi

Now  they are using at least  FY = 50.0 ksi

My world of 1970 in building materials  has changed a lot . I have both Concrete and Steel books of Dr. N. Subramanian. I will buy this new book on building materials also .

Thanks again .

Regards .

Today I have had the practical use of this book. I had to gather information on the "Double-charged Vitrified Floor Tiles", when I went select the flooring tiles to use in a building project of ours. When I referred the book, I got the requisite information on the same in detail, just like from a ready-reckoner !
