Reinforced Concrete: Mechanics and Design: United States Edition

Autor James K. Wight, James G. MacGregor
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 iun 2008
Reinforced concrete design encompases both the art and science of engineering. This book presents the theory of reinforced concrete as a direct application of the laws of statics and mechanics of materials. In addition, it emphasizes that a successful design not only satisfies design rules, but also is capable of being built in a timely fashion and for a reasonable cost. A multi-tiered approach makes Reinforced Concrete: Mechanics and Design an outstanding textbook for a variety of university courses on reinforced concrete design. Topics are normally introduced at a fundamental level, and then move to higher levels where prior educational experience and the development of engineering judgment will be required.

Reinforced Concrete Mechanics & Design
Fifth Edition
James K. Wight • James G. MacGregor

A multi-tiered approach makes Reinforced Concrete: Mechanics and Design an outstanding textbook for a variety of courses on reinforced concrete design.
This new edition has been updated so all chapters are in compliance with the 2008 edition of the ACI Building Code. New problems were developed for chapters where major changes were made, and all of the examples throughout the text were either reworked or checked for accuracy. Other changes include the following:
•  All flexural analysis of various beam and slab sections is now covered in Chapter 4. After completing this chapter students should be prepared to analyze any beam section they may encounter either in their courses or in a design office.
•  All flexural design for beams and one-way slabs is covered in Chapter 5. Information on continuous floor systems, which was in Chapter 10 of prior  editions, has been moved to Chapter 5. Also, Chapter 5 gives more extensive information on structural analysis of continuous floor systems, including modeling assumptions and the interplay between analysis and design.
•  Chapter 12 has been significantly modified to comply with changes in the ACI Code for analysis and design of slender columns. A new detailed design example is included to demonstrate the new code provisions.
•  Chapter 13 includes all of the analysis and design requirements for two-way floor systems, which was previously presented in two chapters. As with Chapter 5, this chapter includes new information on structural analysis and modeling assumptions for continuous two-way floor systems.
•  An expanded coverage of the yield-line analysis method for two-way slabs, including several examples, is presented in Chapter 14.
•  In Chapter 18 the discussion of flexural design procedures for shear walls that resist lateral loads,
including walls with either uniformly distributed vertical reinforcement or with vertical reinforcement
concentrated at the edges of the wall section, has been expanded. Also, a capacity-design approach is
presented for the shear design of structural walls that resist earthquake-induced forces.  
•  Appendix A now contains a large number of axial load vs. moment interaction diagrams that incorporate the strength reduction factor. Both students and designers should find these figures very useful.

Caracteristici

  • The analysis of the flexural strength of beam sections is presented in Chapter 4.  this is the first significant design-related topic, it is presented at a level appropriate for new students. 
  • Closely related material on the analysis of column sections for combined axial load and bending is presented in Chapter 11 
  • Advanced subjects are also presented in the same chapters at levels suitable for advanced undergraduate or graduate students. These topics include, for example, the complete moment versus curvature behavior of a beam section with various tension reinforcement percentages and the use strain-compatibility to analyze either over-reinforced beam sections, or column sections with multiple reinforcement layers.
  • More advanced topics are covered in the later chapters, making this textbook valuable for both undergraduate and graduate courses, as well as serving as a key reference in design offices.
  • Extensive figures are used to illustrate aspects of reinforced concrete member behavior and the design process.
  • Emphasis is placed on logical order and completeness for the many design examples presented in the book.
  • Guidance is given in the text and in examples to help students develop the engineering judgment required to become a successful designer of reinforced concrete structures.
  • Chapters 2 and 3 present general information on various topics related to structural design and construction, and concrete material properties. Frequent references are made back to these topics throughout the text.

Caracteristici noi

One of the most significant changes was the updating of all chapters to be in compliance with the 2008 edition of the ACI Building Code. New problems were developed for chapters where major changes were made, and all of the examples throughout the text were either reworked or checked for accuracy. Other changes include the following:
 
1. All flexural analysis of various beam and slab sections is now covered in Chapter 4.  Previously this material was given in three different chapters. After completing this chapter students should be prepared to analyze any beam section they may encounter either in their courses or in a design office.
2. All flexural design for beams and one-way slabs is covered in Chapter 5. Information on continuous floor systems, which was in Chapter 10 of prior editions, has been moved to Chapter 5. Also, Chapter 5 gives more extensive information on structural analysis of continuous floor systems, including modeling assumptions and the interplay between analysis and design.
3. Chapter 12 has been significantly modified to comply with changes in the ACI Code for analysis and design of slender columns. A new detailed design example is included to demonstrate the new code provisions.
4. Chapter 13 includes all of the analysis and design requirements for two-way floor systems, which was previously presented in two chapters. As with Chapter 5, this chapter includes new information on structural analysis and modeling assumptions for continuous two-way floor systems.  The historic introduction for this topic and the detailed design examples have been retained.
5. An expanded coverage of the yield-line analysis method for two-way slabs, including several examples, is presented in Chapter 14.
6. In Chapter 18 the discussion of flexural design procedures for shear walls that resist lateral loads, including walls with either uniformly distributed vertical reinforcement or with vertical reinforcement concentrated at the edges of the wall section, has been expanded. Also, a capacity-design approach is presented for the shear design of structural walls that resist earthquake-induced forces.  
7. Appendix A now contains a large number of axial load vs. moment interaction diagrams that incorporate the strength reduction factor. Both students and designers should find these figures very useful.
