Download or read book Planning and design handbook on precast building structures written by FIB - Féd. Int. du Béton and published by FIB - Féd. Int. du Béton. This book was released on 2014 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1994 fib Commission 6: Prefabrication edited a successful Planning and Design Handbook that ran to approximately 45,000 copies and was published in Spanish and German. Nearly 20 years later Bulletin 74 brings that first publication up to date. It offers a synthesis of the latest structural design knowledge about precast building structures against the background of 21st century technological innovations in materials, production and construction. With it, we hope to help architects and engineers achieve a full understanding of precast concrete building structures, the possibilities they offer and their specific design philosophy. It was principally written for non-seismic structures. The handbook contains eleven chapters, each dealing with a specific aspect of precast building structures. The first chapter of the handbook highlights best practice opportunities that will enable architects, design engineers and contractors to work together towards finding efficient solutions, which is something unique to precast concrete buildings. The second chapter offers basic design recommendations that take into account the possibilities, restrictions and advantages of precast concrete, along with its detailing, manufacture, transport, erection and serviceability stages. Chapter three describes the precast solutions for the most common types of buildings such as offices, sports stadiums, residential buildings, hotels, industrial warehouses and car parks. Different application possibilities are explored to teach us which types of precast units are commonly used in all those situations. Chapter four covers the basic design principles and systems related to stability. Precast concrete structures should be designed according to a specific stability concept, unlike cast in-situ structures. Chapter five discusses structural connections. Chapters six to nine address the four most commonly used systems or subsystems of precast concrete in buildings, namely, portal and skeletal structures, wall-frame structures, floor and roof structures and architectural concrete facades. In chapter ten the design and detailing of a number of specific construction details in precast elements are discussed, for example, supports, corbels, openings and cutouts in the units, special features related to the detailing of the reinforcement, and so forth. Chapter eleven gives guidelines for the fire design of precast concrete structures. The handbook concludes with a list of references to good literature on precast concrete construction.

Download or read book Structural Connections for Precast Concrete Buildings written by fib Fédération internationale du béton and published by fib Fédération internationale du béton. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Connections are among the most essential parts in precast structures. Their performance relates to the structural limit states, as well as to manufacture of the precast elements and erection and maintenance of the structure itself. Proper design of connections is one major key to a successful prefabrication. The principal aim of fib Bulletin 43 is to encourage good practice in the design of structural connections in precast concrete structures. This is achieved through a good understanding of structural connections as parts of the overall structural system and of basic force transferring mechanisms. The bulletin consists of two parts; the first part concerns general considerations and philosophy in the design of structural connections, and the second part deals with basic force transferring mechanisms within structural connections. The main focus is on the design of structural connections with regard to their structural function in ordinary design situations in the serviceability and ultimate limit states, and in accidental/abnormal design situations, like fire, lack of fit and impact/accidental loads. Other aspects considered include production, handling and site erection of elements, building physics, durability and maintenance. Bulletin 43 applies to structural connections for precast concrete buildings, although the information on basic force transfer mechanisms can also be applicable to other types of prefabricated structures.

Download or read book PCI Design for Fire Resistance of Precast Prestressed Concrete written by A. H. Gustaferro and published by Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute. This book was released on 1977 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this manual is to provide an analytical method of evaluating the fire endurance of structures made of precast and prestressed concrete. The manual brings together information from many sources, and presents the data in a convenient form. Example problems illustrate the use of the design aids and principles outlined in the text. In recent years, building officials, architects, and engineers have become increasingly aware of the unreliability of results of fire tests. Through the use of the engineering principles outlined in this manual, a greater degree of reliability in predicting fire endurance of structures or assemblies can be achieved. It is the hope of the PCI Fire Committee that building codes will adopt provisions permitting engineering analyses as the basis for establishing the fire endurance of a structure. Building codes should encourage the use of such engineering analyses by permitting a reduction in the fire rating requirements when such analyses are performed. The Committee feels that this manual represents a landmark contribution to designers, building officials, and insurance underwriters who are concerned with fire safety of buildings. Not only does this manual present a rational design approach for the safety of precast prestressed concrete structures, but also it places precast and prestressed concrete in the forefront of a long overdue frontier -- that of structural design for fire resistance."--Page iii.
