PRECON
Published by Prentice Hall A state-of-the-art book written by a national and international expert on concrete structures and materials, this fifth edition of Prestressed Concrete-A Fundamental Approach reflects the very latest ACI 318-05 Code, International Building Code, IBC 2003, and AASHTO 2003. It puts at the disposal of the user the author's many years of professional and academic know-how in design, construction, and forensic engineering. This book is different from most because its major topics of material behavior, prestress losses, flexure, shear, torsion, and deflection-camber are sequentially self-contained and can be covered in one semester at the senior and the graduate levels. It uniquely follows procedures given in over 20 flowcharts and 400 illustrations that simplify the understanding and application of the subject in design, using both the customary US and the SI units in the examples. Additionally, you will find: * All examples are revised in this edition to conform to the new ACI 318-05 Strain Limits Method in the flexural design of prestressed concrete members. * A new section on the strut-and-tie design of Corbels and deep beams. * A revised chapter on the design of statistically indeterminate prestressed beams and portal frames. * A revised chapter containing the latest ACI and AASHTO Provisions on the design of post-tensioned beam anchorage end blocks using the strut-and-tie approach. * A revised chapter on slender columns, including a simplified load-contour biaxial bending method. * A chapter with comprehensive design examples on LRFD and standard design of bridge deck members for flexure, shear and torsion, conforming to the latest AASHTO specifications. * A chapter on seismic design of ductile prestressed and precast concrete frames and shear walls in high seismicity zones conforming to the latest IBC 2003 and ACI 318-05 Codes, with extensive design examples. * A comprehensive chapter on the design of prestressed concrete tanks and shell roofs, rarely found in any other textbooks. 4/13/05 Contents: Chapter 1 - Basic principles Chapter 2 - Materials and systems for prestressing Chapter 3 - Partial Loss of Prestress Chapter 4 - Flexural Design of Prestressed Concrete Elements Chapter 5 - Shear and Torsional Strength Design Chapter 6 - Indeterminate Prestressed Concrete Structures Chapter 7 - Camber, Deflection, and Crack Control Chapter 8 - Prestressed Compression and Tension Members Chapter 9 - Two-way Prestressed Concrete Floor Systems Chapter 10 - Connections for Prestressed Concrete Elements Chapter 11 - Prestressed Concrete Circular Storage Tanks and Steel Roofs Chapter 12 - LRFD and Standard AASHTO Design of Concrete Bridges Chapter 13 - Seismic Design of Prestressed Concrete Structures |
