Design Principles and Analysis of Thin Concrete Shells, Domes and Folders


Book Description

One of the main goals of a good and effective structural design is to decrease, as far as possible, the self-weight of structures, because they must carry the service load. This is especially important for reinforced concrete (RC) structures, as the self-weight of the material is substantial. For RC structures it is furthermore important that the w

Practical Design of Concrete Shells


Book Description

Dr. Wilson's book is a reference text on the construction of concrete thin shell structures, specifically written for engineers, architects, builders and students of those disciplines.







Analysis Of Thin Concrete Shells


Book Description

With The Rapid Utilization Of Shell Structures, The Conventional Method Of Design Based On Empirical Or Approximate Solution Is Giving Way To More Realistic And Sound Mathematical Analysis. This Book Presents A Balanced Treatment Of The Mathematical Analysis And Design Aspects Of Shell Structures. A Systematic Development Of Basic Equations With Method Of Analysis Through Numerical Analysis Has Been Presented To Help The Reader To Understand The Mechanics Of Shell Structures. The Book Deals With Both Membrane And Bending Analysis And The Limitations Of Membrane Analysis Have Been Brought Out Clearly Through Examples. The Book Would Be Of Great Interest To Graduate Students As Well As Design Engineer
