This updated student text aims to establish a firm understanding of the behaviour of reinforced concrete structures, and to develop proficiency in the methods used in current structural design practice. The basic mechanisms of structural concrete and methods for the design of individual members for bending, shear, axial forces and torsion, and in addition the text provides much detail related to applications such as the various building systems. Step-by-step design procedures are given to guide the student through the complex methodology of current design. These can easily be converted into flow charts to aid in computer programming.
Design of Prestressed Concrete: Solutions Manual
Simplified Design of Concrete Structures, Eighth Edition is a reliable, easy-to-use handbook that examines a wide range of concrete structures, building types, and construction details.
Designed for courses in the design of concrete structures or reinforced concrete design, this text aims to help readers gain a firm understanding of the behaviour of reinforced concrete and...
17 2 STRESS FIELDS FOR SIMPLE STRUCTURES 2. 1 INTRODUCTION In this chapter the behavior and strength of simple structures made of rein forced or prestressed concrete is investigated with the aid of stress fields.
This book is the first systematic attempt to introduce into structural design a general theory of structural reliability and existing calculation models for common degradation processes.
Written in intuitive, easy-to-understand language, it includes SI unit examples in all chapters, equivalent conversion factors from US customary to SI throughout the book, and SI unit design tables.
This book presents a simplified methodology based on calculations which are quick, easily programmable and no more complex than those required by the current codes.
In Finite Element Design of Concrete Structures: practical problems and their solutions the author addresses this blind belief in computer results by offering a useful critique that important details are overlooked due to the flood of ...
This practical design guide illustrates through worked examples how Eurocode 2 may be used in practice.
Highlighting key topics such as seismic assessments, shear wall structures, and infrastructure resilience, this is an ideal resource for all academicians, students, professionals, and researchers that are seeking new knowledge on the best ...
