This book was released on 1911 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the use of reinforced concrete for the construction of buildings, it is of importance that the structure be made as light as is consistent with strength. Especially is this true of concrete floors in concrete or steel structures where the dead load of the floor is an important item; being usually a large per cent of the designed working load. The cost of forms in the placing of concrete is one of the very important items in the construction of concrete floors. This is especially true for floors at elevated heights, such as the higher floors of office buildings, factories and warehouses. Where such floors are of "monolithic" or solid construction, the forms must be built in place and all material hoisted and poured into them. As these tight forms are often difficult to remove without injury, they can only be used a few times. In the following design of floor system, some of these difficulties are eliminated. The beams and columns are constructed in place, much the same as in the monolithic system, while the slabs may be built at any time or place and later hoisted into position. These slabs may be manufactured in sets of standard forms which can be used over and over again. When convenient, the slab's may be made at some locality other than the building site, and then be hauled or even shipped to the place of construction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tests of Reinforced Concrete, Buildings Under Load The Engineering Experiment Station was established by act of the Board of Trustees, December 8, 1903. It is the purpose of the Station to carry on investigations along various lines of engineering and to study problems of importance to professional engineers and to the manufacturing, railway, mining, constructional, and industrial interests of the State. The control of the Engineering Experiment Station is vested in the heads of the several departments of the College of Engineering, These constitute the Station Staff, and with the Director, determine the character of the investigations to be undertaken. The work is carried on under the supervision of the Staff, sometimes by research fellows as graduate work, sometimes by members of the instructional staff of the College of Engineering, but more frequently by investigators belonging to the Station crops. The results of these investigations are published in the form of bulletins, which record mostly the experiments of the Station's own staff of investigators. There will also be issued from time to time in the form of circulars, compilations giving the results of the experiments of engineers, industrial works, technical institutions, and governmental testing departments. The volume and number at the top of the title page of the cover are merely arbitrary numbers and refer to the general publications of the University of Illinois; above the title is given the number of the Engineering Experiment Station bulletin or circular which should be used in referring to these publications. For copies of bulletins, circulars or other information address the Engineering Experiment Station, Urbana, Illinois.

Book excerpt: Based on the latest ACI Code, Concrete Structures takes a step-by-step approach to exploring the design and analysis of reinforced concrete structures and elements. Ideal for engineering, architectural engineering, building construction, and architecture students, it covers concrete technology, analysis and design of reinforced concrete beams, slabs, columns, footings, and walls. It also introduces the different types of reinforced concrete floor systems and the fundamentals of pre-stressed concrete structures. Unique self-experiments and realistic problems help readers further understand concrete's structural significance and potential as a building material. Includes the most recent methods of design and analysis of reinforced concrete structures and is based on the American Concrete Institute Code (ACI 318-05). Easy to follow using a step-by-step, non-calculus approach. Includes a series of experiments readers can conduct on their own to comprehend concrete's structural significance and understand more about concrete as a building material. Practicing architects and engineers, in particular individuals preparing for the licensing exams. People interested in the building design and construction can also benefit from the book as it follows a step by step approach in the design and analysis of concrete structures.

This book was released on 1972 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objectives of the investigation were to design and model test a blast-resistant reinforced concrete slab system serving as the roof of a basement shelter area. The slab system was designed to offer sufficient radiation and blast protection to insure a survival probability for its occupants of 85 to 95 percent for a fa 15-psi airblast overpressure loading. Static and dynamic tests were conducted on two 1/4-scale models of a prototype shelter. The prototype shelter, as designed, has a reinforced concrete flat slab roof consisting of three 18-foot spans in each direction supported by four interior columns and by a continuous wall around the perimeter. The model included the perimeter walls and different panel configurations which would influence the load-carrying capacity of the prototype structure. The slab system was designed using the empirical method of the 1963 American Concrete Institute Code with modifications to account for the dynamic loading effects. (Author).
