Description
OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS Design Of Reinforced Concrete Structures by Subramanian
This book provides an extensive coverage of the design of reinforced concrete structures in accordance with the current Indian code of practice (IS 456: 2000). As some of the Indian code provisions are outdated the American code provisions are provided wherever necessary. In addition an attempt is made to integrate the provisions of IS 456 with earthquake code (IS 13920) as more than 60% of India falls under moderate or severe earthquake zones. The text is basedon the limit state approach to design and covers areas such as the properties of concrete design of various structural elements such as compression and tension members beams & slabs and design for flexure shear torsion uni-axial and biaxial bending and interaction of these forces. Each chapterfeatures solved examples review questions and practice problems as well as ample illustrations that supplement the text. An exhaustive list of references as well as appendices on strut-and-tie-method properties of soils and practical tips add value to the rich contents of book.show more
