Download or read book Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete ACI 318 08 and Commentary written by ACI Committee 318 and published by American Concrete Institute. This book was released on 2008 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quality and testing of materials used in construction are covered by reference to the appropriate ASTM standard specifications. Welding of reinforcement is covered by reference to the appropriate AWS standard. Uses of the Code include adoption by reference in general building codes, and earlier editions have been widely used in this manner. The Code is written in a format that allows such reference without change to its language. Therefore, background details or suggestions for carrying out the requirements or intent of the Code portion cannot be included. The Commentary is provided for this purpose. Some of the considerations of the committee in developing the Code portion are discussed within the Commentary, with emphasis given to the explanation of new or revised provisions. Much of the research data referenced in preparing the Code is cited for the user desiring to study individual questions in greater detail. Other documents that provide suggestions for carrying out the requirements of the Code are also cited.

Download or read book Principles of Reinforced Concrete written by Zhenhai Guo and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 607 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principle of Reinforced Concrete introduces the main properties of structural concrete and its mechanical behavior under various conditions as well as all aspects of the combined function of reinforcement and concrete. Based on the experimental investigation, the variation regularity of mechanical behavior, working mechanism, and calculation method are presented for the structural member under various internal forces. After examining the basic principle and analysis method of reinforced concrete, the book covers some extreme circumstances, including fatigue load, earthquake, explosion, high temperature (fire accident), and durability damage, and the special responses and analysis methods of its member under these conditions. This work is valuable as a textbook for post-graduates, and can be used as a reference for university teachers and under-graduates in the structural engineering field. It is also useful for structural engineers engaged in scientific research, design, or construction. - Focuses on the principles of reinforced concrete, providing professional and academic readers with a single volume reference - Experimental data enables readers to make full use of the theory presented - The mechanical behavior of both concrete and reinforcement materials, plus the combined function of both are covered, enabling readers to understand the behaviors of reinforced concrete structures and their members - Covers behavior of the materials and members under normal and extreme conditions

This book was released on 1965 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This Code is intended to apply to any concrete construction that is regulated by the general code of which it forms a part. It should supersede other requirements of the general code on this particular subject. Prestressed concrete is included by the definition of 'reinforced concrete,' Section 301(a). Some special structures involve unique problems which are not covered by the code. However, many provisions such as concrete quality and design principles are applicable and should be followed."--Scope, page 1.

Download or read book Unified Theory of Concrete Structures written by Thomas T. C. Hsu and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unified Theory of Concrete Structures develops an integrated theory that encompasses the various stress states experienced by both RC & PC structures under the various loading conditions of bending, axial load, shear and torsion. Upon synthesis, the new rational theories replace the many empirical formulas currently in use for shear, torsion and membrane stress. The unified theory is divided into six model components: a) the struts-and-ties model, b) the equilibrium (plasticity) truss model, c) the Bernoulli compatibility truss model, d) the Mohr compatibility truss model, e) the softened truss model, and f) the softened membrane model. Hsu presents the six models as rational tools for the solution of the four basic types of stress, focusing on the significance of their intrinsic consistencies and their inter-relationships. Because of its inherent rationality, this unified theory of reinforced concrete can serve as the basis for the formulation of a universal and international design code. Includes an appendix and accompanying website hosting the authors’ finite element program SCS along with instructions and examples Offers comprehensive coverage of content ranging from fundamentals of flexure, shear and torsion all the way to non-linear finite element analysis and design of wall-type structures under earthquake loading. Authored by world-leading experts on torsion and shear

Download or read book Strength and Behavior of Restrained Reinforced Concrete Slabs Under Static and Dynamic Loadings written by W. A. Keenan and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two studies, one theoretical, the other experimental are reported. The strength and behavior of restrained reinforced concrete slabs were investigated under both static and dynamic loads. Nine 6-foot-square slabs were tested: six under uniform static pressure and three under long-duration dynamic loads. Steel reinforcement ranged from zero to 1.33 percent. The slabs failed initially in a flexural mode, followed by total collapse at a much greater deflection. The thinner slabs deflected more than 2.5 times their thickness under both types of loading. The theoretical study deals with a square slab, restrained against rotation and longitudinal movement at the edges. The study covers static resistance, failure criteria, size and extent of fragments, and design recommendations. An analytical method is developed to predict the static resistance, deflection, and longitudinal restraining thrust at ultimate failure. The resistance and behavior of longitudinally restrained square slabs are predictable, and if properly designed can resist dynamic loads effectively and more economically than those with no longitudinal edge restraint.
