I’ve written this ebook primarily for engineers who’re learning to take the NCEES 16-hr structural engineering (SE) examination or the structural depth part of the NCEES civil Ideas and Apply of Engineering (PE) examination. The civil PE and SE exams—even the breadth part of the civil PE examination—typically comprise structural questions that transcend the fundamentals. This ebook gives a extra thorough evaluation for those that need to be ready for all questions in concrete design. It is usually appropriate as a reference for college students taking introductory programs in bolstered or prestressed concrete. For this second version, nomenclature, equations, examples, and apply issues have been up to date in order that they’re in line with NCEES-adopted codes and specs. This isn’t a complete textbook on the principle of bolstered concrete constructions.

I’ve included the fundamental principle you’ll need to unravel the sorts of concrete design issues more likely to seem on the exams, however I’ve not gone into detailed derivations and historic summaries of code standards. Amongst the subjects coated on this ebook are the results of flexure, shear, torsion, and axial masses on members; serviceability; improvement of reinforcement; habits of one-way and two-way flooring programs; prestressed concrete members; and seismic design standards. I’ve included many examples for example how ACI code standards ought to be utilized, and in the final chapter you’ll discover 37 apply issues with full options. Solely U.S. customary items are utilized in these examples and apply issues, in line with the examination forma  Whereas learning this ebook, you’ll have to have a duplicate of the constructing code ACI 318 at hand. Both the 2008 or the 2011 version will do for this function, as a result of there are solely minor variations between them in regard to the issues coated on this ebook. (For the examination itself, nevertheless, it would be best to have the identical version the present examination relies on. That is defined extra absolutely in The right way to Use This E book.) I admire the assist supplied by John Mercer, PE, who reviewed an early draft of the first version.
