Basic Principles of Concrete Structures is one of the key courses for undergraduates
majoring in civil engineering. The objective of this book is to help students to
completely understand the basic mechanical properties and design methods of
structural members made of concrete and reinforcement and to lay the foundation for
future study of the design and construction of various types of reinforced concrete
structures.
The book consists of 12 chapters, i.e., introduction, materials, bond and
anchorage, axially loaded members, flexural members, eccentrically loaded members,
shearing, torsion, punching and local bearing, prestressed concrete members,
serviceability of members, and durability of reinforced concrete structures.
The book is suitable for teachers and college students majoring in civil engineering
and can also be referred by civil engineers.
The textbook is jointly edited by Prof. Xianglin Gu, Prof. Xianyu Jin, and Dr.
Yong Zhou.
As a basic specialty course for undergraduates majoring in civil engineering,
Basic Principles of Concrete Structures is different from either the previously learnt
mechanics courses or the design courses to be learnt. Compared with mechanics
courses, the basic theories of reinforced concrete structures cannot be solely derived
by theoretical analysis. And compared with design courses, this course emphasizes
the introduction of basic theories rather than simply being a translation of design
specifications. That means the course of Basic principles of Concrete Structures
should focus on both theoretical derivation and engineering practice. Therefore,
based on the latest version of designing codes both for buildings and bridges (GB
50010-2010 and JTG D62-2004), the book starts from the steel and concrete
materials, whose properties are very important to the mechanical behavior of
reinforced concrete members. Step by step, the design and analysis of reinforced concrete members under basic loading types (tension, compression, flexure, shearing, and torsion) and environmental actions are introduced. The characteristic
of the book that distinguishes it from other textbooks on reinforced concrete
structures is that more emphasis has been laid on the basic theories of reinforced
concrete structures and the application of the basic theories in design of new
structures and analysis of existing structures. Examples and problems in each chapter are carefully designed to cover every important knowledge point.
