Reinforced Concrete: Design; Performance and Applications

Specifications

Book Description

This ebook Reinforced Concrete: Design; Performance; and Applications (PDF) reviews the design; performance; and applications of reinforced concrete.

Concrete is one of the most used materials in the construction industry all over the world. In structural systems; the combination of steel reinforcement bars and concrete gives rise to reinforced concrete (RC); which is widely applied in the civil engineering field due to its adequate durability; mechanical strength; and fire resistance. Steel-rebar reinforced structures are subjected to structural deterioration when subjected to extreme loadings such as fire; impact loadings and cyclic loading; earthquake; consequently reducing the expected life and performance of structures. To enhance structural performance; the RC structures are usually strengthened. or retrofitted.
