"e;The book provides practising SA structural design engineers with the background to and justification for the changes proposed in the new SANS 10160 standard."e;The publication of SANS 10160 will be the culmination of a period of concerted effort by a SAICE working group to review various modern structural design standards around the world and having done so, the working group proposed a revision of SABS 0160 which will align with the SA standard with the most suitable of these international standards."e;- Dr Graham Grieve Chairperson, SAICE Working Group on SA Loading Code
