Revised to adhere to the latest American Concrete Institute (ACI) Code requirements for the design of structural concrete. Presenting the analysis and design of both reinforced and prestressed concrete elements, Structural Concrete is exceptionally logical and easy to read. Accuracy of calculations (Section 1.11) helps readers understand the accuracy of calculations in engineering design. Additional examples elaborate on the behavior of reinforced concrete beams at failure and combine structural analysis with concrete design. Section on Coulomb theory for soil pressure provides an alternative approach to calculate the soil pressure considering the friction of soil on retaining walls. Section on partially prestressed concrete explains the range of partial prestressing between a lower limit of reinforced concrete and an upper limit of full prestressing. In-depth treatment of the ultimate strength concept of reinforced concrete explains the concept of concrete beams behavior up to failure with mathematical analysis of forces developed in concrete and steel. Discusses the design of different types of stairs and the design of curved beams. For use as a reference of structural concrete by civil engineers.

Incorporating the 1995 ACI Code requirements for the design of structural concrete, this comprehensive new textbook fills the gap between industrial and educational requirements by helping students understand the practical aspects of the modern design of concrete structures. Presenting the analysis and design of both reinforced and prestressed concrete elements, Structural Concrete is exceptionally logical and easy to read. Written to cover a two-course sequence on the design of reinforced concrete structures, this book should also serve as a valuable reference for the practicing engineer and those interested in concrete materials and design. 
The hallmark features of this text include an in-depth treatment of the ultimate strength concept of reinforced concrete; detailed, yet easy to follow examples in each chapter; unique chapters on the design of different types of stairs and the design of curved beams. A software program is also available which allows students to check each step of their calculations for analysis problems and to explore options for designing reinforced concrete members.

The popular, easily accessible guide to the design of reinforced concrete structures—now updated and revised Structural Concrete, Fifth Edition provides complete guidance to the analysis and design of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. This new edition brings all material up to date while maintaining the book's practical, logical, easy-to-follow approach. Coverage includes the latest ACI 318 - 11 code rules, emphasizing the code's strength approach and strain limits. Additional codes, standards, and specifications, as well as material properties and specific loads and safety provisions are also examined in detail. Drawing on decades of experience in industry and academia, the authors include numerous SI unit examples and design tables along with step-by-step instructions on how to analyze and design for each type of structural member. They clearly explain all key concepts one should know before tackling design formulas, and supplement the discussion with helpful end-of-chapter summaries, references, and problems. New and updated material in this edition includes: <ul>
<li> The application of shear design to beams with variable length in actual structure </li> <li> The design of deep beams employing ACI and AASHTO strut-and-tie approach </li> <li> The design of stepped-type reinforced concrete stairs, not covered anywhere else </li> <li> Seismic design and analysis utilizing the IBC 2012 and ASCE 7-10 code </li> <li> The design of curved beams subject to flexure, shear, and torsion </li> <li> Prestressed concrete bridge design according to AASHTO specifications </li> <li> Examples for predicting shrinkage and creep of concrete in both U.S. and SI units </li> </ul>
Structural Concrete, Fifth Edition arms civil and structural engineers with a complete set of tools for designing concrete structures with confidence. It is also an excellent resource for students of civil engineering.

The most up to date structural concrete text, with the latest ACI revisions Structural Concrete is the bestselling text on concrete structural design and analysis, providing the latest information and clear explanation in an easy to understand style. Newly updated to reflect the latest ACI 318-14 code, this sixth edition emphasizes a conceptual understanding of the subject, and builds the student's body of knowledge by presenting design methods alongside relevant standards and code. Numerous examples and practice problems help readers grasp the real-world application of the industry's best practices, with explanations and insight on the extensive ACI revision. Each chapter features examples using SI units and US-SI conversion factors, and SI unit design tables are included for reference. Exceptional weather-resistance and stability make concrete a preferred construction material for most parts of the world. For civil and structural engineering applications, rebar and steel beams are generally added during casting to provide additional support. Pre-cast concrete is becoming increasingly common, allowing better quality control, the use of special admixtures, and the production of innovative shapes that would be too complex to construct on site. This book provides complete guidance toward all aspects of reinforced concrete design, including the ACI revisions that address these new practices. <ul>
<li>Review the properties of reinforced concrete, with models for shrink and creep</li> <li>Understand shear, diagonal tension, axial loading, and torsion</li> <li>Learn planning considerations for reinforced beams and strut and tie</li> <li>Design retaining walls, footings, slender columns, stairs, and more</li> </ul>
The American Concrete Institute updates structural concrete code approximately every three years, and it's critical that students learn the most recent standards and best practices. Structural Concrete provides the most up to date information, with intuitive explanation and detailed guidance.
