Design of Liquid Retaining Concrete Structures

摘要

This third edition of a successful text provides guidance for the subject of retaining structures following the new suite of Eurocodes. The book provides a clear path through the design process and the introduced modifications, such as: changes to surface zones, the critical steel ratio, the maximum crack spacing (flexural and imposed strain) and edge restraint are highlighted and discussed in detail. In keeping with the Eurocodes this new edition provides more theoretical background with reference to current and previous research, helping the reader to achieve a greater understanding and a wider application of the basic design.
