R.C.C. Designs (Reinforced Concrete Structures) - RCC DESIGNS (OLD USED BOOK) 2014 Edition  (English, Paperback, Punmia B. C.)

In R.C.C. Designs (Reinforced Concrete Structures), readers will get to learn about the concept of reinforced concrete structures and their importance in the field of modern construction.

Summary Of The Book

Reinforcing concrete structures is defined as the process of improving the properties of concrete by reinforcing external components. The most common form of reinforcement is that of steel bars. It is essential to understand the properties and limitations of the materials used for reinforcement. R.C.C. Designs (Reinforced Concrete Structures) encompasses 48 chapters that give comprehensive details about limit state design and working stress design. You will also find descriptive content related to pre-stressed concrete, bridges, buildings, and water tanks.

Designs and examples have been liberally used to explain the concepts in detail. You will find that every chapter in the book gives you a clear and admissible definition of the subject at hand. The authors have explained all the related design procedures, theories and principles in every chapter. Detailed drawings, illustrations, designs and examples help readers understand the core principles of Reinforced Concrete Structures. This edition has also included formulae for estimating the modulus of elasticity of concrete. Updated information regarding maximum and minimum spacing for shear reinforcement has also been added. Construction engineers, students as well as teachers will benefit from this book.

R.C.C. Designs (Reinforced Concrete Structures) has six chapters. The first chapter is about Working Stress Method followed by a chapter on water tanks. Miscellaneous Structures like bunkers, portal frames, and chimneys are included in the third chapter. The fourth and fifth chapters explain about concrete bridges and limit state design respectively. Miscellaneous topics and pre-stressed concrete are dealt with in the final chapter. The book includes appendices on reinforcement, BM and SF coefficients, and loadings.
