Concrete Structures

Design and Residual Capacity Assessment

"This manual covers the analysis and design of new reinforced and prestressed concrete structures as well as the assessment of existing structures, along with examples and cases in each chapter. It presents structural analysis from linear elastic hypothesis to the fiber elements used in plastic analysis. Design is written in line with Eurocodes 2 and 8, and consistent with ACI-318, using reinforcement sizing diagrams, N-M interactions diagrams, and the theorem of optimal reinforcement. The assessment of the residual capacity of RC structures outlines analytical procedures for B-Regions and D-Regions using instructive graphical representations, with examples. Intended for students and professionals specializing in structural engineering"--
