Abstract

Offering an essential background for a thorough understanding of building code requirements and design procedures for slabs, Reinforced Concrete Slabs provides a full treatment of today's approaches to reinforced concrete slab analysis and design. The new edition of this classic contains a wealth of new material on computer optimization, the equivalent frame method, lateral load analysis, and other current topics. A general discussion of slab analysis and design is included, followed by an exploration of key methods and theories. Following chapters discuss other important issues, including shear strength, serviceability, membrane action, and fire resistance.
