Materials for civil and construction engineers.

by Michael S. Mamlouk

Structural Concrete: Theory and Design is a comprehensive new textbook that fills the gap between industrial and educational requirements by helping students understand the practical aspects of the modern design of concrete structures. M. Nadim Hassoun presents the analysis and design of both reinforced and prestressed concrete elements in an exceptionally logical and easy to read manner. Written to cover a two-course sequence on the design of reinforced concrete structures, this book should also serve as a valuable reference for the practicing engineer and those interested in concrete materials and design.
