Incorporating the 1995 ACI Code requirements for the design of structural concrete, this comprehensive new textbook fills the gap between industrial and educational requirements by helping students understand the practical aspects of the modern design of concrete structures. Presenting the analysis and design of both reinforced and prestressed concrete elements, Structural Concrete is exceptionally logical and easy to read. Written to cover a two-course sequence on the design of reinforced concrete structures, this book should also serve as a valuable reference for the practicing engineer and those interested in concrete materials and design.The hallmark features of this text include an in-depth treatment of the ultimate strength concept of reinforced concrete; detailed, yet easy to follow examples in each chapter; unique chapters on the design of different types of stairs and the design of curved beams. A software program is also available which allows students to check each step of their calculations for analysis problems and to explore options for designing reinforced concrete members.
