Concrete Construction Engineering Handbook Second Version by Edward G. Nawy
PREFACE:
A terrific want has existed for an in-depth handbook on concrete building engineering and expertise that may help the constructor in making right technical judgments within the numerous areas of constructed programs.
This Handbook is meant to fill this very want. This version is totally up to date and consists of ten new chapters written by main consultants on numerous subjects coping with the state-of-the-art in a number of newly developed areas of concrete building and design engineering. All chapters deal with their explicit topics with intensive element and depth of dialogue, a characteristic that’s missing in any comparable texts.
Additionally, every chapter gives chosen references for the person to seek the advice of for additional analysis past the scope of the Handbook. The subjects lined listed below are state-of-the-art statements relating to what the design engineer and the constructor ought to find out about concrete, probably the most versatile materials of the 21st century.
These subjects could be grouped into 5 classes:
1. Newest advances in engineered concrete supplies, together with concrete constituents, excessive efficiency concretes, the design of mixtures for each normal- and high-strength concretes, and particular concrete functions equivalent to architectural concrete.
2. Strengthened concrete building, together with suggestions on the huge array of forms of constructed amenities, long-term results on habits and efficiency equivalent to creep and shrinkage, building loading results, formwork and falsework proportioning, and automation in building.
3. Specialised building, equivalent to prestressed concrete building in buildings and transportation amenities; building and proportioning of constructions in seismic zones (together with the newest provisions of the 2006 Worldwide Constructing Code on the design of constructions in high-seismicity zones); masonry building; heavy concrete building, equivalent to roller-compacted concrete; and concrete marine constructions, equivalent to offshore platforms concrete.
4. Design suggestions for top efficiency, together with deflection discount in buildings, proportioning of concrete structural components by the newest ACI 318-08 Constructing Code, prefabricated precasting, geotechnical and basis engineering, nondestructive analysis of long-term structural efficiency, and structural concrete restore, retrofit, and rehabilitation.
5. Specialised subjects on new supplies, equivalent to engineered concrete composites, geopolymer concrete, tools for concrete constructing building, joints in concrete constructions, design of precast seismic bracing programs, detailed design of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP), and aesthetics in longspan bridge building.
The 37 contributors to this new version of the Handbook are main authorities within the area, with a mixed skilled observe of at the very least 1200 years. All of them are nationwide or worldwide leaders in analysis, design, and building.
This Handbook is the one publication on this class that has in a single chapter a abstract of all concrete design expressions in accordance with the newest ACI 318-08 Constructing Code for flexure, shear, torsion, strut-and-tie design of corbels and deep beams, compression, long-term results, slender columns, and improvement of reinforcement. Each PI (in.-lb) and SI codecs are offered.
A design workplace will be capable to shortly evaluation the entire newest necessities for structural concrete. This Handbook ought to allow designers, constructors, educators, and area personnel to supply the perfect and most durably engineered constructed amenities.
It’s for these professionals that this Handbook was written within the hope that the wealth of probably the most up-to-date information embodied on this complete work will present, on this dynamic century, vastly higher, extra environment friendly, and longer enduring constructed concrete.
