Reinforced Concrete Design, 4th Edition by W.H. Mosley and J.H. Bungey
Book Description :-
A new edition of an introductory text to the principles and methods of design for concrete structures. Although the detailed design methods generally conform to British Standards, much of the theory and practice is of a fundamental nature, and of use to engineers in other countries. An ELBS/LPBB edition is available. Reinforced concrete is one of the most widely used modern building materials. Concrete is “artificial stone” obtained by mixing cement, sand, and aggregates with water. The text includes solved problems to help illustrate the fundamental concepts. The worldwide use of reinforced concrete construction stems from the wide availability of reinforcing steel as well as the concrete ingredients. Unlike steel, concrete production does not require expensive manufacturing mills. Concrete construction, does, however, require a certain level of technology, expertise, and workmanship, particularly in the field during construction. In some cases, single-family houses or simple low-rise residential buildings are constructed without any engineering assistance. Concrete became very popular after the invention of Portland cement in 19th century; however, its limited tension resistance prevented its wide use in building construction. To overcome this weakness, steel bars are embedded in concrete to form a composite material.
