Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural concrete members often show great deviation in structural performance from that predicted by the current code of practice. In certain cases the predications considerably underestimate the capabilities of a structure or member, while in others the predictions are unsafe as they overestimate the member's ability to perform in a prescribed manner. Clearly, a rational and unified design methodology is still lacking for structural concrete. This book presents a simplified methodology based on calculations which are quick, easily programmable and no more complex than those required by the current codes. It involves identifying the regions of a structural member or structure through which the external load is transmitted from its point of application to the supports and then strengthening these regions as required. As most of these regions enclose the trajectories of internal compression actions the technique has been called the 'compressive force path' method. Ultimate limit-state design for concrete structures will provide designers with a practical and easily applied method for the design of a concrete structure, which is fully compatible with the behaviour of concrete (as described by valid experimental evidence) at both the material and structural level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a method which simplifies and unifies the design of reinforced concrete (RC) structures and is applicable to any structural element under both normal and seismic loading conditions. The proposed method has a sound theoretical basis and is expressed in a unified form applicable to all structural members, as well as their connections. It is applied in practice through the use of simple failure criteria derived from first principles without the need for calibration through the use of experimental data. The method is capable of predicting not only load-carrying capacity but also the locations and modes of failure, as well as safeguarding the structural performance code requirements. In this book, the concepts underlying the method are first presented for the case of simply supported RC beams. The application of the method is progressively extended so as to cover all common structural elements. For each structural element considered, evidence of the validity of the proposed method is presented together with design examples and comparisons with current code specifications. The method has been found to produce design solutions which satisfy the seismic performance requirements of current codes in all cases investigated to date, including structural members such as beams, columns, and walls, beam-to-beam or column-to-column connections, and beam-to-column joints.

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.

Realizing the necessity and importance, authors have updated the complete text and presented this subject "Limit State Design of Concrete Structures". Ultimate Limit State (ULS- conditions to be avoided) and serviceability Limit State (SLS- limits undesirable cracks and deflections) are two main essential elements of this subject. ULS includes `Limit State of Collapse in compression, in flexure, in shear and in torsion as sub elements. Whereas, SLS includes Limit State of Serviceability for deflections, cracking, fatigue, durability and vibrations as sub-elements. Features: (i) Text for life of concrete structures, fire resistance and corrosion. (ii) For all those, who carry-out their design using computer-programme, authors have given procedures (developed by them) for determining the stress in Hysd-steel bars corresponding to strain developed in concrete.

Download or read book Design of Steel Structures Vol 1 written by Ramchandra and published by Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 1010 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelfth edition, 2009 of this book is based on IS: 800-2007 and also newly revised IS: 883-1994 (code of practice for timber structures). New code of practice, IS: 800 is likely to be issued soon. It is likely to introduce ``Limit State Design of Steel Structures''. Authors have distributed the text in thirty four chapters in main text and one chapter `on Location of Shear Centre' in Appendix A. Concept of Shear Centre and bending axis is important and significant and essentially needed to understand simple theory of bending and so also unsymmetrical bending. Complete-text has been updated and new matter added (e.g., elastic buckling, inelastic, stability and instability of columns and compression members, torsional-buckling, torsional-flexural buckling, etc.). Behaviour of web-stiffeners and web-panels specially near the end panels, tension-field action has been first time included to familiarise the students with the concept. Durability of steel members have been emphasized phenomenon of corrosion has been distinctly explained.
Download or read book Reinforced Concrete Design to Eurocode 2 written by Giandomenico Toniolo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-09 with total page 836 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook describes the basic mechanical features of concrete and explains the main resistant mechanisms activated in the reinforced concrete structures and foundations when subjected to centred and eccentric axial force, bending moment, shear, torsion and prestressing. It presents a complete set of limit-state design criteria of the modern theory of RC incorporating principles and rules of the final version of the official Eurocode 2. This textbook examines methodological more than notional aspects of the presented topics, focusing on the verifications of assumptions, the rigorousness of the analysis and the consequent degree of reliability of results. Each chapter develops an organic topic, which is eventually illustrated by examples in each final paragraph containing the relative numerical applications. These practical end-of-chapter appendices and intuitive flow-charts ensure a smooth learning experience. The book stands as an ideal learning resource for students of structural design and analysis courses in civil engineering, building construction and architecture, as well as a valuable reference for concrete structural design professionals in practice.

Download or read book Limit State Design of Steel Structures written by Ramchandra and published by Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 1088 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Method of Limit State (Ultimate Limit State, (ULS) and serviceability limit state (SLS)) present an improved design philosophy and makes allow-ance for the short-compings of working stress method (conventional and long time used in practice). This method provides basic framework, within which the performance of the steel structures may be assessed against various limiting conditions and invo-lves some concept of probability. Object of limit design method is to get steel structure that will remain fit for use during its life with acceptable target reliability. The probability of a limit state being reached during its life time is kept very small. This method has been broadly adopted in many developed countries and based on the recommendations of IS: 800-2007 (Third Revised Edition). This method has been covered in nine parts (in twenty six chapters and four appendices) as listed in contents. After introducing `Limit State Method of Design of Concrete Structures (LSD: CC) in IS: 456-1978, it was natural for Bureau of Indian Standard to introduce `Limit State Design of Steel Structures (LSD: SS). SI units for text for complete book, uncertainties involved in the working stress method and the concept of partial safety factors for the loads and strength of mate-rials (for yield and ultimate stresses reached) are the special feature of the book. Concepts of shear centre for thin-walled beam cross-sections and unsymmetrical bending of beams are important for various requirements and have been included in appendices. The text of book has been covered in about 1000 pages and 550 diagrams. The texts of various topics has been explained in many illustrative worked-out examples.
