Reinforced concrete occupies a leading position in modern construction of buildings, bridges, water tanks, aqueducts, bunkers, silos and other similar structures. This treatise contains upto-date information on design, analysis and construction of engineered concrete structures, based on Limit State Design philosophy. Its intention is to provide engineers, architects and students of Civil Engineering and Architecture with authoritative theoretical and practical ...
Reinforced concrete occupies a leading position in modern construction. Proper reinforced concrete construction depends upon thorough understanding of the action of the structure and upon the knowledge of characteristics and limitations of those materials that are used in its construction. The Tenth Edition of the book, containing Forty Eight Chapters incorporates the following :(1) Working Stress Design(2) Limit State Design(3) Prestressed Concrete(4) Water ...
