About this book

This book comprises the select peer-reviewed proceedings of the Indian Structural Steel Conference (ISSC 2020). The topics cover state-of-the-art and state-of-the-practice in structural engineering, and latest research in structural modeling and design. Novel analytical, computational and experimental techniques, proposal of new structural systems, innovative methods for maintenance, rehabilitation, and monitoring of existing structures, and investigation of the properties of engineering materials as related to structural behavior are presented in the book. This book will be very useful for  structural engineers, researchers, and consultants interested in sustainable materials and steel construction.

About the editors

Prof. Mahendrakumar Madhavan is a Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Hyderabad, India. He has obtained Ph.D. and MBA (Finance) from the University of Alabama at Birmingham and his Masters degree from the National University of Singapore.  He is a Registered Professional Engineer (PE) in the State of Alabama USA. Prior to IIT Hyderabad, he worked as a Structural Engineer at Alabama Power Company, Birmingham, USA. Prof. Madhavan is an international expert in Structural Steel, Cold-formed steel, and Steel-concrete Composite construction and has published more than 50 peer-reviewed internationally reputed journals and holds membership in the "American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Structural Engineering Institute (SEI) Technical Administrative Committee on Metals" and in “ASCE SEI Cold-Formed Steel Members Committee". Prof. Madhavan has significantly contributed to the revision of IS 801: Indian Design Code for Cold-formed Steel Members based on the original research work carried out at IIT Hyderabad to fulfil the Government of India’s goal of “Housing for All” through sustainable construction.  He is an Editorial board member of the Journal of Structures and is an Associate Editor for the ASCE Journal of Structural Engineering and serves as a reviewer for more than ten international journals.  Prof. Madhavan is a Fellow of the ASCE, Fellow of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), London and is also the first Indian to be elected as a Fellow of ASCE’s Structural Engineering Institute (SEI).

Prof. James S. Davidson is currently the Gottlieb Professor of Structural Engineering in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Auburn University, USA. He is an expert in Mechanics of Materials, Advanced Stress Analysis, Finite Element Methods, and Stability of Structures.  He has mentored more than 50 research students including MS and Ph.D., has served as associate editor, review director, and editorial board member on five technical journals, and has served as a reviewer for more than 25 different technical journals.

Prof. N. Elumalai Shanmugam has taught for more than 20 years at the National University of Singapore. Prior to this he taught in College of Engineering, Guindy, Delhi University, University of Wales (Cardiff) and Polytechnic of Wales. After 50 years of teaching at graduate and undergraduate levels he retired recently from National University of Malaysia where he taught for nine years. His research interest includes steel plated structures, steel-concrete composite construction, long-span structures and connections, cold-formed steel structures, etc. He has published more than 200 research papers in International refereed journals conference proceedings and contributed chapters in Civil Engineering Handbook, Structural Engineering handbook and Bridge Manual. He is a memberof the Editorial Board of a number of International Journals.
