Publisher: Scholium International, Inc.
Number Of Pages: 401
Publication Date: 1991-01
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0333537181
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780333537183
Product Description:
A new edition of an introductory text to the principles and methods
of design for concrete structures. Although the detailed design methods
generally conform to British Standards, much of the theory and practice
is of a fundamental nature, and of use to engineers in other countries.
An ELBS/LPBB edition is available.

Rating: 5
I hope this review helps:
There are 15 chapters in this book and these 15 chapters are as follows: -
1) Properties of Reinforced Concrete
2) Limit State Design
3) Analysis of the Structure
4) Analysis of the Section
5) Shear, Bond and Torsion
6) Serviceability, durability and stability requirements
7) Design of Reinforced Concrete Beams
Design of Reinforced Concrete Slabs
9) Column Design
10) Foundations
11) Water-Retaining Structures and Retaining Walls
12) Prestressed Concrete
13) Composite Construction
This design of concrete structural elements in this textbook is
based on the British Standard, BS 8110: 1997 (and not the older 1985
one).
Chapter 1 to Chapter 3 are some introductory stuff. The section on
Properties of Reinforced Concrete for instance described why it is
advantageous to adopt concrete and steel, the stress/strain properties
of concrete & steel, etc. In Chapter 2, the limit states (ultimate
and serviceability) were presented. A discussion on characteristic
material strengths, characteristic loads, partial safety factor
(materials & loads) follows. In Chapter 3, the author presented
some methods of structural analysis. Moment distribution (for
continuous beams and frames) and the cantilever method were discussed.
A short section on shear walls and also moment redistribution is
finally presented in Chapter 3.
Number of Pages
The total number of pages in this book is 385 (including references, index, etc.)
Photos
There are no real life photos in this textbook.
Diagrams
There is extensive use of line diagrams in this book.
Drafting
There is no exclusive chapter on engineering drafting /
drawing. However, in certain parts of the text, there is a discussion
on the topic, Anchorage Bond and Curtailment of Rebars and in this
chapter, the author presented the Simplified Rules for Curtailment of
Bars in Beams (similar to the code of practice).
Examples
From my observation, there is at most one example for
each topic discussed. For instance, when the author discussed ribbed
slabs, he would then present an example on ribbed slab. When the author
discussed the topic on waffle slabs, another example would follow, etc.
Beams
In chapter 7, the author presented the design and analysis
of beams. Beams that require / do not require compression
reinforcements are discussed. Beams that are subjected to moment
redistribution are also discussed in this chapter. The designs of shear
links and also bent-up bars are also presented. A section on cantilever
beams and also corbels is also in this chapter. Finally, beams
subjected to torsion are also discussed.
Slabs
In chapter 8, the author presented the design and
analysis of slabs. The slabs that were discussed in this chapter are
one-way slab, two-way slab, flat slabs, ribbed slabs, waffle slabs and
hollow block floors together with an appropriate example. Punching
shear analysis and design is also discussed in this chapter with an
example.
There is a small section on the design of stairs in this chapter and
an example of the design of a stairs spanning longitudinally is
presented.
At the end of this chapter, the Yield Line & Strip Method and Hillerborg Strip Method are presented.
Foundations
The author presented with calculation examples of
pad footing, combined footing, strip footing and the design of pile
cap. Strap footing and raft foundations are also discussed.
