Book Reinforced Concrete Beams  Columns and Frames

Download or read book Reinforced Concrete Beams Columns and Frames written by Jostein Hellesland and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-02-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is focused on the theoretical and practical design of reinforced concrete beams, columns and frame structures. It is based on an analytical approach of designing normal reinforced concrete structural elements that are compatible with most international design rules, including for instance the European design rules – Eurocode 2 – for reinforced concrete structures. The book tries to distinguish between what belongs to the structural design philosophy of such structural elements (related to strength of materials arguments) and what belongs to the design rule aspects associated with specific characteristic data (for the material or loading parameters). A previous book, entitled Reinforced Concrete Beams, Columns and Frames – Mechanics and Design, deals with the fundamental aspects of the mechanics and design of reinforced concrete in general, both related to the Serviceability Limit State (SLS) and the Ultimate Limit State (ULS), whereas the current book deals with more advanced ULS aspects, along with instability and second-order analysis aspects. Some recent research results including the use of non-local mechanics are also presented. This book is aimed at Masters-level students, engineers, researchers and teachers in the field of reinforced concrete design. Most of the books in this area are very practical or code-oriented, whereas this book is more theoretically based, using rigorous mathematics and mechanics tools. Contents 1. Advanced Design at Ultimate Limit State (ULS). 2. Slender Compression Members – Mechanics and Design. 3. Approximate Analysis Methods. Appendix 1. Cardano’s Method. Appendix 2. Steel Reinforcement Table. About the Authors Jostein Hellesland has been Professor of Structural Mechanics at the University of Oslo, Norway since January 1988. His contribution to the field of stability has been recognized and magnified by many high-quality papers in famous international journals such as Engineering Structures, Thin-Walled Structures, Journal of Constructional Steel Research and Journal of Structural Engineering. Noël Challamel is Professor in Civil Engineering at UBS, University of South Brittany in France and chairman of the EMI-ASCE Stability committee. His contributions mainly concern the dynamics, stability and inelastic behavior of structural components, with special emphasis on Continuum Damage Mechanics (more than 70 publications in International peer-reviewed journals). Charles Casandjian was formerly Associate Professor at INSA (French National Institute of Applied Sciences), Rennes, France and the chairman of the course on reinforced concrete design. He has published work on the mechanics of concrete and is also involved in creating a web experience for teaching reinforced concrete design – BA-CORTEX. Christophe Lanos is Professor in Civil Engineering at the University of Rennes 1 in France. He has mainly published work on the mechanics of concrete, as well as other related subjects.

Book Reinforced Concrete Grade Beams  Piles   Caissons

Download or read book Reinforced Concrete Grade Beams Piles Caissons written by Raksha N. Parmar and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-12-26 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: REINFORCED CONCRETE GRADE BEAMS, PILES & CAISSONS A SimplifiedGuideforHillsideEngineering This book is the torchlight for Architects, engineers, contractors & homeowners. It tells about different type of soils & how they create problems when building a structure on it. The book tells the reader about how to solve the problems of soft soil by going deep into foundation by supporting the structure on grade beams, piles & caissons. It brings the information about the role of different professionals who are involved in solving these problems & building a dream structure for an ambitious homeowner. Several homeowners desire to live on nice, isolated, beautiful, dreamlike land. But they do not have any information about how this work is done. Another important characteristic of construction is loads, which are additional loads due to the Alluvium soil, depth of the deep foundation & availability of hard rock & slope of the site location, daylight to the edge of the foundation & water table elevation etc. It discusses the importance of soil report & Geotechnical engineers soil samples. Importance of loads & load combinations are emphasized. Most important aspect is the CODE which has control of the local authority, State authority & International authority. Not only that all the revisions in CODE shall be considered. The book gives several useful formulas for structural engineering calculations for this kind of structures. I have added real life work samples which I have done for design of hillside structures. By Raksha N. Parmar (P.E.) State of California

Book Durability of Prestressed Concrete Beams

Download or read book Durability of Prestressed Concrete Beams written by E. C. Roshore and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The durability of pretensioned and posttensioned concrete beams is being studied using laboratory-prepared beam specimens. A group of beams containing pretensioned strands, some made with air-entrained concrete and others with nonair-entrained concrete, was exposed to natural weathering. It is concluded: (a) Concrete for prestressed structural elements that are to be exposed to freezing and thawing in a moist condition should contain entrained air. (b) The concrete cover over reinforcing should be greater than 3/4 in. when exposure to seawater is involved. (c) Epoxy concrete is superior to portland cement concrete for end protection. Flush anchorages appear to be more effectively protected than external anchorages. (Author).

Book Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Beams Subjected to Fire

Download or read book Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Beams Subjected to Fire written by Bruce R. Ellingwood and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methods for analytically predicting the behavior of simply supported reinforced concrete beams subjected to fire are presented. This is generally a two-step process involving a thermal analysis followed by a stress analysis. This study emphasizes the latter, wherein the determination of moment-curvature-time relationships for the beam cross section incorporates the temperature-dependent strength degradation in the steel and concrete as well as thermal and creep strains. The sensitivity of the predictions to various phases of analytical modeling is investigated to establish the parameters most important for the prediction of beam behavior and to indicate where additional data should be gathered. A comparison of predicted behavior with that observed in fire tests shows excellent agreement when realistic reinforcement temperature histories are used.
