Structural loads, structural analysis and structural design are simply explained with the worked example for easiness of understanding. Element designs with notes and discussions have added to get comprehensive knowledge. Also, construction materials, shoring system design, water retaining structures, crack width calculations, etc. have discussed in addition to other aspects.
Post tension foundations are not that common in construction. However, presently, the construction of the post-tension and pre-tension structures is increasing rapidly with their advantages compared to reinforced concrete structures. Though the post-tension systems...
As civil engineers, we are increasingly tasked with finding efficient solutions to our construction projects. Post tension slabs offer an ideal solution for a variety of applications, offering enhanced durability, strength and flexibility. In...
Desing of prestressed composite beams is discussed in this article. Composite beams are widely used in construction. The composite action of the beam enhances the load-carrying capacity of the beam. What is Prestress Concrete...
The Bridge beam is constructed mostly as posted tensioned or pre-tensioned beams. In addition to precast beams, concrete slabs on abutments, box culverts, box girders, suspension bridges are also constructed to accommodate passengers or...
