Based on the new, extensively revised, 2002 edition of the American Concrete Institute Building Code, Reinforced Concrete:Mechanics and Design, Fourth Edition in SI Units explains the theory and practice of reinforced concrete design in a systemmatic and clear fashion--with an abundance of step-by-step worked examples, illustrations, and photographs. It foucuses on preparing beginners and experienced designers to make the many judgement decisions required in reinforced concrete design, and reflects the author's extensive experience and expertise as teachers of reinforced concrete design and as members of various code committees. Both authors are members of the American Concrete Institute and Prof. Wight is Chair of ACI Committee 318.
