Reinforced Concrete Design: A Practical Approach, Chapter 12

"Appropriate for reinforced concrete courses taught out of engineering, technology, or construction management departments."" "This book covers the design of main reinforced concrete structural members in accordance with the limit states design method, and is based on the new CSA Standard A23.3-04 "Design of Concrete Structures." The load provisions are consistent with the "National"" Building"" Code of Canada 2005." The material in this book is presented in the logical order in which structural design would be performed in practice. The book takes a non-calculus based, practical approach to the analysis and design of reinforced concrete members, rather than a high-level theoretical approach. The authors use modern analysis and design procedures that are consistent with good design practice. The updated version features comprehensive improvements to the examples provided in the shearing chapter as well as expanded coverage of topics spanning the entire book.
