For one-semester, junior/senior-level and graduate courses in Reinforced Concrete in the department of civil engineering.

Now reflecting the new 2008 ACI 318-08 Code and the new International Building Code (IBC-2006), the Sixth Edition of this cutting-edge text has been extensively revised to present  state-of-the-art developments in reinforced concrete. It analyzes the design of reinforced concrete members through a unique and practical step-by-step trial and adjustment procedure. The narrative is supplemented with flowcharts to guide students logically through the learning process. Ample photographs of instructional testing of concrete members decreases the need for actual laboratory testing.

• This is the only text to integrate a large number of flowcharts in almost every chapter. The text closely and systematically uses and follows procedures using these flowcharts to simplify the understanding and application of the subject in design. This makes it easy for both students and instructors to quickly grasp the key features which form the basis of the underlying theory.

• Hundreds of photos of tests to failure of concrete elements make this book unique – helping students to visualize behavior without the need for expensive testing to illustrate it.

• Comprehensive sketches, steps for working drawings, and chapter-end problems also reduce the necessity for actual laboratory testing of structural concrete members.

• Interaction Diagram Charts for Columns in the Appendix present students with easy-to-use material that complies with the ACI 318 Code flexural limit strain design procedure.

• Many examples throughout are worked out in detail,

providing full design examples in SI units as well as SI equivalents in all major steps of every example – giving students a better understanding of the subject.

• Numerous alternate solutions using SI Units and lists of equations in SI format for the various topics are found in nearly every chapter.

• The new 2008 ACI 318-08 Code on Concrete Structures and the new International Building Code (IBC-2006) on Seismic Design of Structures, which introduced many changes to the current practice, are covered throughout the book.

• Updates on state-of-the-art developments include introducing students to the increased use of multi-story structures designed and built using reinforced and prestressed concrete masonry systems, not only reinforced concrete systems.

• Chapter 9, on the design of compressions members, saw a complete revamp to reflect the ACI 318-08 approach in the design of columns and to accommodate the new strength reduction factors. This includes a complete revision of the extensive design examples that cover both non-slender and slender compression members.

• Chapter 16, on seismic design of buildings, was significantly revised to comply with the major changes in both the ACI 318 Code and the IBC 2006 Code. Updates include replacing several tables with the newly adopted ones for seismic design of buildings in high seismicity zones.

• Concrete materials and the design of concrete mixtures for normal strength and high strength concretes receive comprehensive treatment in Chapters 3 and 4. Plus, a new section on provisions for environmental structures and durability has been added.

• Chapter 15, on the LRFD design of bridge deck structures, has been updated in accordance with the recent AASHTO 2004 and its 2006 supplements, reflecting the changes in the torsional and shear strain equations.

• An expanded section features examples on the strut-and-tie modeling for the design of deep reinforced concrete beams and corbels in accordance with the ACI 318-08 Appendix provisions for this method.

• A new Chapter 17 offers a comprehensive exploration of the Strength Design of Masonry Structures conforming to the 2007 Masonry Code. This is a unique chapter that all other reinforced concrete books lack, and provides timely coverage of a topic that is gaining universal need in the proportioning of reinforced and prestressed concrete masonry both in normal and high seismic intensity zones.
