Reinforced Concrete Slabs by Robert Park and William L.Gamble (KEBT0024)

Reinforced Concrete Slabs, CONTENTS:      

Used in floors, roofs, ceilings, roadways, and walls, and in almost every built structure, reinforced concrete is concrete that has been combined with another substance (often steel) to enhance its strength.

It is essential that structural engineers understand their characteristics, design requirements, and load limits, as well as how to analyze the material.

The only book devoted exclusively to reinforced concrete slabs, the second edition of this reference classic has been brought completely up to date.

Not only does it contain basic information on the design and analysis of reinforced concrete, the new edition includes material on computer optimization, Equivalent Frame Method, and lateral load analysis.

This current edition fully conforms to the American Concrete Institute 1998 Building Code for Reinforced Concrete and includes SI units.
