Product Description This revision of a popular text discusses the behavior, analysis, and design of prestressed concrete structures. Changes in the Second Edition include a new emphasis on partially prestressed concrete members, flexural strength calculations, deflection calculations, crack width calculations, along with new information on high strength materials, and more. Develops an understanding of design methods used in practice and familiarity with the important provisions of the governing 1983 Building Code of the American Concrete Institute. Balance of theory and practice provides a clear survey of design principles. Problems at the end of every chapter illustrate concepts. | ||

Fast Shipping, Excellent Quality The shipment was received within less than two weeks and the books condition was excellent. There were no problems encountered with this order. Seller is top notch. | ||
Excellent Book Professor Nilson has done an excellent job in covering the fundamentals of prestressed concrete. I wish for a new edition in line with the latest ACI 318, as certain requirements have changed since 1987. Also, an expanded coverage of PCI or AASHTO standard beams, including design examples utilizing these, would be welcome. This is a perfect textbook, and I hope that it will be made available in a new edition. | ||
