This book conforms with the latest recommendations for the design of reinforced
and prestressed concrete structures as described in Eurocode 2: Design of Concrete
Structures – Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings. References to relevant
clauses of the Code are given where appropriate.
Where necessary the process of design has been aided by the production of
design charts.
Whilst it has not been assumed that the reader has a knowledge of structural
design, a knowledge of structural mechanics and stress analysis is a prerequisite. The
book contains detailed explanations of the principles underlying concrete design and
provides references to research where appropriate.
The text should prove useful to students reading for engineering degrees at
University especially for design projects. It will also aid designers who require an
introduction to the new EuroCode.
The transition from national standards for concrete structural design to Eurocode EN 1992 is the biggest change to concrete design for decades.
This new edition of Concrete Design explains the key differences between BS8110 and EN1992, and teaches the fundamentals of the design of concrete structures to comply with the Eurocodes.
With many illustrations and worked examples, this accessible textbook teaches the essentials of concrete design to EN1992 to students and professionals alike.
* Full coverage of the concrete structural Eurocode
* Detailed worked examples and tutorial problems
* Analysis of the key changes from the old national standards |

Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators: A New Brand of Multitarget Drugs
The increasing awareness on the varied consequences of hypogonadism in
distinct organs and systems has supported the notion of estrogens as systemic
agents. This observation is congruent with the variety of tissues affected by estrogens
when used in hormone therapy formulations on hypogonadic women.
Apart from the genital tract... | | | | |
