Structural Steel Design, 7th Edition, by Jack C. McCormac and Stephen F. Csernak, is a textbook dedicated to the fundamentals of designing steel structures. Published by Pearson, the text provides structured instructional material for structural engineering courses at the college and university level.

The text organizes its technical content around the analysis and behavior of structural components. Initial chapters present detailed methods for evaluating tension members, focusing on load transfer and member capacity. The coverage then advances to compression members, detailing structural stability under axial forces while addressing calculations for shear forces and deflection limits.

By focusing on fundamental engineering principles, the publication offers instructors a systematic framework for classroom presentation. It supports student practice in performing essential structural calculations across standard academic assignments.
