Structural Concrete: Strut-And-Tie Models for Unified Design

2017 | Business & Finance

This book will examine the application of strut-and-tie models (STM) for the design of structural concrete. It will present state-of-the-art information, from fundamental theories to practical engineering applications, and will also provide innovative solutions for many design problems that are not otherwise achievable using the traditional methods. It will also provide a unification of methods for the design of structural concrete, and will explain how STM can be used to explain the behavior of concrete elements and regions in response to boundary forces and reinforcement detailing. It will include numerous illustrative examples for a variety of real world applications.
