Book Description

The primary objective of Reinforced Concrete Design, 10th Edition, is to provide a basic and thorough understanding of the strength and behavior of reinforced concrete members and structural systems. Featuring updated compliance with the ACI 318-19 Building Code for Structural Concrete, it covers details of reinforced concrete materials, mechanics of bending, slab systems and an in-depth analysis of continuous one-way and two-way floor systems, shear and torsion, and serviceability. There are also comprehensive chapters on structural walls, columns, foundations, and prestressed concrete fundamentals. Instructor ancillaries are also available. FEATURES: Features frequent references to the recent ACI Code updates, making it a vital companion for design and construction Includes practice-based examples and exercises to enhance real-world applications and understanding Illustrates procedures for the design of job-built forms for slabs, beams, and columns Covers basic principles to advanced concepts like the design of deep beams and pile caps, prestressed concrete, and concrete formwork design Adds new material on pole footings and Sonutube foundations, different types of concrete floor systems, and numerous new photos and drawings
