Publisher's Synopsis
Suitable for students of civil engineering and architecture, this text takes an applied approach to the fundamentals of reinforced concrete design. It assumes no previous background in the subject and presents the material in a clear way in which to encourage further study. This edition, which maintains its student-centred writing style, has been updated to conform to the 1989 American Concrete Institute Code (ACI). Other revisions include reworked and additional home problems and the inclusion of answers to alternate problems throughout the text. A computer disk, which features challenging reinforced concrete exercises, complements the text.
