DESCRIPTION:
Informative and Illustrative This book is great in this sense that it illustrates the philosophy behind the numbers used in ACI code and the limit states of each design parameter. It is great for understanding the behavior of reinforced structural systems as well as practical design.. "excellent examples" according to Bob McBob. As a student, this book proved to be a vital supplement to lecture topics concerning both the design and analysis of reinforced concrete. I would recommend having at least some understanding of structual mechanics and concrete material properties and behavior before buying this text though. It can be best used by upperclassmen undergrads and by professionals who need to brush up on basic concrete design skills. Covers analysis and design of . An excellent book. A comprehensive book, explains all concepts in detail. Suitable as a textbook for beginners as well as a reference for practising engineers. I enjoyed the chapters on torsion, short columns, slender columns,and strut and tie models.
A comprehensive text on reinforced concrete, reflecting new insights and recent developments. The principles, properties and applications of reinforced concrete are described in a step-by-step approach.
