He has employed all his experience from the research and engineering work in a number of books published in Greek, German and English. In Greek he pub- lished 8 books on steel and steel-concrete composite structures, including the ap- plication of Eurocode 3 and Eurocode 4. Three of these books were translated to German and published by Ernst & Sohn. They were well received, because they were equally appropriate for students and practising engineers mainly due to a large number of well selected numerical Prof. Ioannis Vayas examples.
