Based on the latest ACI Code, Concrete Structures takes a step-by-step approach to exploring the design and analysis of reinforced concrete structures and elements. Ideal for engineering, architectural engineering, building construction, and architecture students, it covers concrete technology, analysis and design of reinforced concrete beams, slabs, columns, footings, and walls. It also introduces the different types of reinforced concrete floor systems and the fundamentals of pre-stressed concrete structures. Unique self-experiments and realistic problems help readers further understand concrete’s structural significance and potential as a building material. Includes the most recent methods of design and analysis of reinforced concrete structures and is based on the American Concrete Institute Code (ACI 318-05). Easy to follow using a step-by-step, non-calculus approach. Includes a series of experiments readers can conduct on their own to comprehend concrete's structural significance and understand more about concrete as a building material. Practicing architects and engineers, in particular individuals preparing for the licensing exams. People interested in the building design and construction can also benefit from the book as it follows a step by step approach in the design and analysis of concrete structures.

This book covers the materials to prepare the candidates for the Structural Systems Division of the Architect Registration Examination (A.R.E. 4.0). It includes the most up-to-date information based on the requirements provided by the National Council for Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB). The book consists of five parts: 1. General Structures, 2. Lateral Forces, 3. Structural Layout Vignette, 4. Questions and Answers, and 5. Appendix. The first two parts include a number of short numerical examples similar to those given on the A.R.E. The Lateral Forces section covers materials from the FEMA 454 publication on the earthquake resistant design, which the A.R.E. candidates must know. The book includes a large number of graphics to help explain the technical topics. The following is a brief description of each part of the book: General Structures – This part covers the general structures topics of the multiple-choice section of the A.R.E. It is divided into five main sections: 1. Structural Theory, 2. Steel Structures, 3. Concrete Structures, 4. Wood Structures, and 5. Long-Span Systems. Lateral Forces – This part covers the lateral forces topics of the multiple-choice section of the A.R.E. It is divided into four main sections: 1. Different Types of Lateral Loads, 2. Building Structures Lateral Load Resisting Systems, 3. Wind Loading, and 4. Earthquake Loading. Structural Layout Vignette – This part provides information on the structural layout vignette section of the A.R.E. It is divided into four main sections: 1. Directions on Using the NCARB’s Vignette Drawing Software, 2. Important Considerations, 3. Steps for Answering the Vignette, and 4. Examples. Five complete examples of the vignette questions along with their answers are included in this part of the book. Questions and Answers – This part includes 255 multiple-choice A.R.E. sample questions along with the detailed answers to each. Appendix – This part includes a list of the formulas and reference materials that are available to the candidates during the Structural System Division of the A.R.E.

Structural Systems - Second Edition

This revised, fully updated second edition covers the analysis, design, and construction of reinforced concrete structures from a real-world perspective. It examines different reinforced concrete elements such as slabs, beams, columns, foundations, basement and retaining walls and pre-stressed concrete incorporating the most up-to-date edition of the American Concrete Institute Code (ACI 318-14) requirements for the design of concrete structures. It includes a chapter on metric system in reinforced concrete design and construction. A new chapter on the design of formworks has been added which is of great value to students in the construction engineering programs along with practicing engineers and architects. This second edition also includes a new appendix with color images illustrating various concrete construction practices, and well-designed buildings. The ACI 318-14 constitutes the most extensive reorganization of the code in the past 40 years. References to the various sections of the ACI 318-14 are provided throughout the book to facilitate its use by students and professionals. Aimed at architecture, building construction, and undergraduate engineering students, the scope of concepts in this volume emphasize simplified and practical methods in the analysis and design of reinforced concrete. This is distinct from advanced, graduate engineering texts, where treatment of the subject centers around the theoretical and mathematical aspects of design. As in the first edition, this book adopts a step-by-step approach to solving analysis and design problems in reinforced concrete. Using a highly graphical and interactive approach in its use of detailed images and self-experimentation exercises, “Concrete Structures, Second Edition,” is tailored to the most practical questions and fundamental concepts of design of structures in reinforced concrete. The text stands as an ideal learning resource for civil engineering, building construction, and architecture students as well as a valuable reference for concrete structural design professionals in practice.
