Reinforced Concrete Design 2nd Edition by Pillaiand Menon

Traditionally, the study of reinforced concrete design begins directly with a chapter on materials, followed by chapters dealing with design. In this book, a departure is made from that convention. It is desirable for the student to have first an overview of the world of reinforced concrete structures, before plunging into the finer details of […]

Practical Design of Reinforced Concrete Buildings

Practical Design of Reinforced Concrete Buildings

In this chapter, the basic concepts of reinforced concrete are introduced. Two building models are provided to illustrate the actions of building structural elements such as slabs, beams, columns, footings, and walls. The actions of forces such as bending, shear, axial force, axial force plus bending, torsion, diagonal tension, and shear friction are conceptually explained. […]
