Description and Table of Contents

Description

Concrete Structures: Eurocode EC2 and BS 8110 Compared provides a comprehensive comparison of EC2 provisions against BS 8110 methods on all major aspects of the code. It introduces each section with a general discussion of the treatment of the topic and enables designers to familiarize themselves with the new code, to gain confidence in its use and so inform the new standard. This book will prove a vital reference tool for designers in reinforced and prestressed concrete who have experience of current UK codes of practice. It will also provide essential reading for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate civil engineering students and for those involved in teaching structural concrete design.
