Author Description

For courses in Reinforced Concrete Design in civil engineering, architectural engineering, and architecture programs. A practitioner's guide to reinforced concrete design Reinforced Concrete Design integrates current building and material codes with realistic examples to give readers a practical understanding of this field and the work of its engineers. Using a step-by-step solution format, the text takes a fundamental, active-learning approach to analyzing the design, strength, and behavior of reinforced concrete members and simple reinforced concrete structural systems. Content throughout the 9th edition conforms to the latest version of ACI-318 Code. It expands discussion of several common design elements and practice issues, and includes more end-of-chapter problems reflecting real-world design projects.
