Engineering Council Examination recommendeed reading list
Recommended reading for the Engineering Council Part 2 Examination Subject 424, Structural Design

Good and to the point
Great book when used in combination with teh steel designers manual, it offers lots of great worked examples in a very clear and well presented way. It does not provide you with the volume of information that the steel designers manual does, but gives some very good worked examples for some interesting problems that you wont find else where.
