Concrete Technology + Reinforced Concrete Basics

This pack contains 1 copy of Concrete Technology and 1 copy of Reinforced Concrete Basics

The success of any concrete structure depends on the designer's sound knowledge of concrete and its behaviour under load, under temperature and humidity changes, and under exposure to the relevant environment and industrial conditions.

This book gives students a thorough understanding of all aspects of concrete technology from first principles. It covers concrete ingredients, properties and behaviour in the finished structure with reference to national standards and recognised testing methods used in Britain, the European Union and the United States. Examples and problems are given throughout to emphasise the important aspects of each chapter.

An excellent coursebook for all students of Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering and Building at degree or diploma level, Concrete Technology will also be a valuable reference book for practising engineers in the field.

Intended for courses on the Analysis and Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures found in undergraduate Civil and Structural Engineering Departments. This text will also be of use to practising designers. 

Reinforced Concrete Basics is a book on analysis and design of reinforced concrete structures, starting with the fundamentals followed by the developing of advanced approaches. It contains the material needed for both undergraduate and postgraduate courses in reinforced concrete and for practising engineers. In preparing the text, the authors provide an understanding of structural behaviour before undertaking any quantitative analysis. Examples are introduced at an early stage in the development of each topic. Readers can use the examples as exercises to test their understanding as they proceed with their study of the material.
