Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concrete-Steel Construction, Vol. 1: Buildings; A Treatise Upon the Elementary Principles of Design and Execution of Reinforced Concrete Work in Buildings While the mechanical laws above referred to are simple in the extreme when once understood, their application is so far from obvious in a superficial consideration of the subject that it has required Continuous investigation and patient study on the part of the authors for years of time to determine and classify their Operation according to the mechanical principles and laws of physics, and this supplemented by expert observers engaged for many months in the conduct of experiments and tests to decide the questions which this continued study and consideration had raised. In this treatise patented as well as unpatented types have been included for the reason that while the consulting engineer without license has no right to design patented types, he is called upon to report upon their strength and should for that reason be as familiar with their analysis as with unpatented constructions. The hope of the authors, who have devoted so much time and expense to the investigation and presentation of the fundamental principles explained in these pages, is that as these principles be come more widely known and understood needless accidents and loss of life in the erection of concrete building work will be avoided and unsatisfactory designs caused by the failure of the engineering profession at large to understand and introduce into practice the proper limitations of steel ratios as depending on the relative thick ness or depth of beam and slab to span and the correct arrangement and disposition of the steel in the slab, will disappear from the engineering field.

Excerpt: ...to determine the cross section of the inner ring rod, with the same definiteness as that of the radial rods, but that is unimportant. Its position has already been fixed as not more than / from the edge of the cap, where I is the distance from the top hoop or collar band of the column to the edge of the cap. STRESSES IN CONCRETE OF HEAD 211 The vertical shearing stresses may be regarded as sufficiently resisted outside the mushroom by the concrete alone. The critical cylindrical surface separating those areas where the shear may be assumed to be safely carried by concrete alone, from those areas where the steel may be relied on to carry as much of the shear as may be required, should evidently be taken somewhat inside the outer ring rod, but just where is of no particular consequence. The supposition of the existence of a crack at X, either actual or potential, on which our computation of the stresses in the radial rods has been based, is sufficiently satisfactory so far as the rods themselves are concerned; but it seems desirable to consider in more detail the phenomena attending the development of the stresses in the concrete at and near the edge of the cap, especially in soft concrete when the limit of its compressive resistance is reached in this region. The horizontal compressive resistance of the concrete at the lower surface of the slab is that already treated in (38), and it is our present object to consider how that is to be combined with the vertical supporting pressures under the radial rods, and with the horizontal and vertical shears in the slab due to bending. These latter are greatest in the neutral surface, as has been previously stated, and according the general theory of stresses are equivalent to, and may be replaced...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concrete-Steel Construction, Vol. 1: Buildings; A Treatise Upon the Elementary Principles of Design and Execution of Reinforced Concrete Work in Buildings When we consider the fact that fire losses in Canada and the United States amount each year to half a billion dollars, and that the question of commercial economy and cost determines whether buildings shall be built of fireproof and incombustible materials such as reinforced concrete, or of inflammable materials such as are used in timber construction, it is evident how important it is to the general public to be able to determine on theoretically correct principles whether safe fireproof buildings can be built at practically no greater cost or even less cost than combustible ones. In case of any uncertainty as to theoretical principles to be applied, the designer is compelled for safety to employ materials in such lavish amounts as to render cost prohibitive. Engineering writers have heretofore failed to apply the mathematical theory of elasticity to those forms of reinforced concrete that differ from beams in their manner of reinforcement and that depend for their mechanical action on bond shear as it is involved in multiple way systems. The present treatise is devoted to discussion of the elementary principles and the practical problems presented by building work in reinforced concrete. In it an effort is made to dissipate differences of opinion due to lack of familiarity with the mechanics of reinforced concrete such as tend, at the present time, to retard its introduction and to hinder to some extent the rapidity of its progress in the commercial field. The endeavor is made in this treatise, to bring out these mechanical laws, and to treat at length the restraint imposed upon the elements of the composite structure - the steel and the concrete - in accordance with the fixed principles of physics and mechanics in order that rational rules may be more generally adopted for the safe and economic design of this type of fireproof buildings. Failure on the part of the engineering profession to consider these laws in drawing up building codes, has led to grave errors thereby offering a premium on the more dangerous types of designs in concrete building work, and placing at a disadvantage the more scientific, safe, and conservative types of work as determined by the records of these types in practical construction.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History of Construction Cultures Volume 1 contains papers presented at the 7ICCH – Seventh International Congress on Construction History, held at the Lisbon School of Architecture, Portugal, from 12 to 16 July, 2021. The conference has been organized by the Lisbon School of Architecture (FAUL), NOVA School of Social Sciences and Humanities, the Portuguese Society for Construction History Studies and the University of the Azores. The contributions cover the wide interdisciplinary spectrum of Construction History and consist on the most recent advances in theory and practical case studies analysis, following themes such as: - epistemological issues; - building actors; - building materials; - building machines, tools and equipment; - construction processes; - building services and techniques ; -structural theory and analysis ; - political, social and economic aspects; - knowledge transfer and cultural translation of construction cultures. Furthermore, papers presented at thematic sessions aim at covering important problematics, historical periods and different regions of the globe, opening new directions for Construction History research. We are what we build and how we build; thus, the study of Construction History is now more than ever at the centre of current debates as to the shape of a sustainable future for humankind. Therefore, History of Construction Cultures is a critical and indispensable work to expand our understanding of the ways in which everyday building activities have been perceived and experienced in different cultures, from ancient times to our century and all over the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steel-Concrete-Steel Sandwich Composite Walls covers key aspects of steel-concrete-steel sandwich composite walls, including: an analysis and design and their loading carrying capacities when subjected to different loading scenarios, e.g., bending, shear, punching, compression, in-plane and out-of-plane shear, etc.; analyzes the basic resistance of the steel-concrete-steel walls; and covers the use of such structures under particular seismic conditions. Such structures combine the advantages of steel and reinforced concrete structures with wide advantages, e.g., it permits prefabrication, increases the construction efficiency, shortens construction period, saves formwork and manpower, and provides high resistance to blast and impact loads. Steel-concrete-steel sandwich composite walls, as a representative structural element of steel-concrete-steel sandwich structures, have been used as the nuclear shielding walls in the new generation nuclear power plant, shield tunnels in Japan, immersed tunnels, ice-resisting walls for Arctic offshore platforms, shear walls in high-rise buildings.
