Reinforced and prestressed concrete are the key construction materials of the twentieth century and are used in a wide range of structures from bridges to highrise buildings. This book provides a detailed and complete reference for the design of reinforced concrete structures. It offers an understanding of the inter-relationship between conceptual design, analysis and the detailed design of concrete structures. In addition to considering the traditional areas of concrete member design, the authors emphasize the importance of a qualitative understanding of the overall behaviour of structures. Provides civil and structural engineering students with complete coverage of the design of reinforced concrete structures. Great emphasis is placed on developing a qualitative understanding of the overall behaviour of structures.
