Reinforced Concrete Construction In Theory And Practice An Elementary Manual For Students And Others With Illustrations PDF Download

Excerpt from Reinforced Concrete Construction in Theory and Practice, an Elementary Manual for Students and Others Although the word theory is used in the title the Authors have intentionally avoided all pure theory, and have included only those theoretical principles which are needed to enable the necessary calculations in the practical designing of such work to be understood. The formulae have been reduced to the simplest conditions, and worked examples are given so that the merest tyro in mathematics will have no difficulty in utilising them. The illustrations, which are very numerous, are grouped under the various branches of construction so that anyone interested in a particular subject can study a variety of typical forms. Many of the illustrations are published for the first time, and the Authors have to thank several kind friends for permission to publish others, and for the loan of blocks. Although there are other books dealing with both the theory and practice of reinforced concrete construction, there is none that takes it quite in the same way, and the Authors trust that the facility this offers for practical use will be found one of its chief recommendations.
