Description

Concrete structures must be designed both to be safe against failure and to perform satisfactorily in use. This book is written for practising engineers, students and designers and concentrates on design methods for checking the main serviceability requirements of control of deflections and cracking in reinforced and prestressed concrete structures.

Table of Contents

Preface. Acknowledgements. Creep and shrinkage of concrete and relaxation of steel. Stress and strain of uncracked sections. Special cases of uncracked sections and calculation of displacements. Time-dependent internal forces in uncracked structures: analysis by the force method. Time-dependent internal forces in uncracked structures: analysis by the displacement method. Stress and strain of cracked sections. Displacements of cracked members. Simplified prediction of deflections. Effects of temperature. Control of cracking. Appendices. Index.
