This is the series "Manual da Construção em Aço” (Steel Construction Manual) published by CBCA (in Portuguese).
 | Manual de Construção em Aço - Projeto e Durabilidade Edited in: 2009 Pages: 71
"This CBCA's manual was written in order to help architects and engineers in understanding and comply with the Annex N (normative annex) that deals with the durability of metallic components against corrosion. More than that, it aims to collaborate in some way with reduced costs from the corrosion. It is a manual setting out on a relatively simple and rational way, how the currently available knowledge can be exploited effectively in the control of corrosion" |
 | Steel Construction Manual - cold-formed shape dimensioning as per NBR 14762 and NBR 6355 (CD) Edited in: 2008 Pages: 119
This manual presents theoretical foundations and practical explanations for the use of the Brazilian norm ABNT NBR 14762 steel structures dimensioning comprising cold-formed shapes, together with the ABNT norm NBR 6355 – cold- formed structural steel shapes – Standardization. The manual includes the “Dimperfil” program designed with focus on NBR 14762 and 6355 norms which calculates resistance efforts in isolated bars, as well as geometric properties of the effective section to be used in the displacements calculation. |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Economic Viability Edited in: 2008 Pages: 84
Technical manual brings the basic guidelines for the choice of the structure through the quality/viability investment analysis or in the indicators determination of gains and losses of a venture. |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Trusses Steel Joist Type (with attachment) Edited in: 2007 Pages: 196
This manual focuses the flat trusses steel joist type of parallels chords, highlighting its use, different specifications, interspaces standardization, height and modulations of joist, always seeking the best results between weight and requirements of the project. |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Bridges and Viaducts with Composite Beams Edited in: 2007 Pages: 138
This manual presents the historical evolution of projects, types of superstructures, materials and most used norms, loads specified, types of fixtures and erection systems used. Appendix B provides a practical approach of whole projects of a composite metallic bridge with a 40-meter span and of a composite rural metallic bridge with a 14-meter span. |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Steel Framing: Engineering Edited in: 2006 Pages: 127
"Following the publication of the manual "Steel Framing: Architecture", approaching construction details of the system to be used as guidelines by architects and professionals for the conception of building designs, CBCA presents "Steel Framing: Engineering", which brings the main conceprs regarding cold-formed shapes and their dimensioning and connections as per ABNT NBR 14762/2001 criteria - Dimensioning of Steel Structures comprising cold formed shapes - procedure." |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Steel Framing: Architecture Edited in: 2006 Pages: 121
"Presents project and assembly aspects for light steel framing constructions" |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Steel-Concrete Interfaces Edited in: 2006 Pages: 96
"This manual offers a practical approach to the main interfaces between pillars - foundations and steel beams with concrete elements." |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Transport and Assembly Edited in: 2005 Pages: 144
"In steel construction each part has its specific place in the structure and plays a role in the construction. The act of putting parts together in the construction site to form the structure is called assembly. However, the structure must be transported from the place it was manufactured to the construction site, where it will be assembled. This manual covers these two stages in the production of steel structures: transport and assembly." |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Insulating Panels Edited in: 2003 Pages: 59
"Intense, non-rationalized use of traditional masonry diverges from the concepts of industrial assembly and dimensional accuracy characterizing the use of metallic structures" |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Fire Resistance of Steel Structures Edited in: 2003 Pages: 73
"This manual contributes to the literature available in the área of fire safety, bringing up-to-date information and tables taken from the main reference sources, such as Brazilian and international technical norms and works by renowned Brazilian and international specialists in the field." |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Surface Treatment and Painting Edited in: 2003 Pages: 96
"This manual completes the literature available in the field of surface treatment and painting for steel constructions, bringing up-to-date information and tables, taken from the main reference sources, such as Brazilian and international technical norms and works by renowned Brazilian and international specialists in the field." |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Masonry Edited in: 2002 Pages: 52
"This work aims at supporting the construction tem in the execution of masonry in combination with metallic structures, creating an execution sequence, with techniques and precautions even for the coating system." |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Multi-Purpose Warehouses (CD) Edited in: 1987 Pages: 78
"This work brings the basic guidelines for dimensioning multi-purpose warehouses serving as a model for calculations for similar facilities." |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Connections for Metallic Structures Edited in: 1987 Pages: 88
"This work brings nine examples of calculations for connections commonly found in metallic structure projects." |
 | Steel Construction Manual - Steel Structure Small Buildings Edited in: 1987 Pages: 76
"This manual aims at being a helpful tool mostly for graduating students and engineers working in metallic buildings" |
