Description
The area of computer applications in concrete technology is growing rapidly. Where it was once the exclusive domain of researchers and scientists, it is now an area where fabricators, detailers, designers, students and educators are making significant contributions. The different applications presented in this important ACI publication will be of interest of individuals dedicated to the correct use of concrete as a construction material.
"State-of-the-Art Computer Applications in Concrete Technology" offers the latest information on topics such as microcomputer-aided design of reinforced and prestressed concrete elements; computer analysis of R/C columns in biaxial bending; spreadsheet template of concrete box design; concrete mix design; and personal computer-aided design of post-tensioned slabs on expanding and compressible soils.
This ACI publication is designed to keep you abreast of the latest happenings in concrete technology and is intended to enhance the technological tools available for the correct, safe, and economic use of concrete.
