"Structural Concrete: Theory and Design, 2e" presents the analysis and design of both reinforced and prestressed concrete elements in an exceptionally logical and easy-to-read manner. In this textbook, M. Nadim Hassoun covers two courses in concrete design, one at the junior/senior level and one as a graduate course, Advance Reinforced Concrete. The book should also serve as a valuable reference for the practicing engineer and those interested in concrete materials and design.The second edition revises the previous text to conform to the latest ACI Code 318-99. New features in the Second Edition include: Latest ACI Code requirements incorporated throughout. New section on understanding the accuracy of calculations in engineering design. Additional easy-to-follow examples are introduced in Chapters 3 and 4. New Structural Aid tables added as Appendix C to help students to determine the moment, shear, and deflection for simple and continuous beams. The design of different structures is achieved by performing, in general, two main steps: (1) determining the different forces acting on the structure using proper methods of structural analysis, and (2) proportioning all structural members economically, considering the safety, stability, serviceability, and functionality of the structure. Presents the analysis and design of both reinforced and prestressed concrete elements. This book covers two courses in concrete design, one at the junior/senior level and one as a graduate course, Advance Reinforced Concrete. It serves as a useful reference for the practising engineer and those interested in concrete materials and design.
