Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures is designed to meet the requirements of undergraduate students of civil and structural engineering. This book will also be an invaluable reference to postgraduate students and practising engineers and researchers. This book provides an extensive coverage of the design of reinforced concrete structures in accordance with the current Indian codes of practice (IS 456:2000 and IS 13920:1993). As some of the Indian code provisions are outdated the American code (ACI 318:2011) provisions are used wherever necessary. In addition discussion on earthquake-resistant design and detailing is provided as about 60 per cent of India falls under moderate to severe earthquake zones. The text is based on the modern limit states design and covers topics such as the properties of concrete structural forms and loadings. Besides discussion on the behaviour of various structural elements such as compression and tension members beams slabs foundations walls and joints and design and detailing for flexure shear torsion bond tension compression uniaxial and biaxial bending and interaction of these forces make it an invaluable guide for students and designers. The book also provides appendices on strut-and-tie-method properties of soils design aids and practical tips and thumb rules that add value to the rich content of book. For interested readers more than 1300 references and numerous web links are provided in the chapters for further study and research.
