This book was released on 1992 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes all aspects of cast-in-place concrete design and construction, and presents several innovative state-of-the-art techniques that will challenge the ways engineers have traditionally approached such tall building projects. Some of the important issues covered include: an in-depth discussion of construction loads, including material, shoring, and reshoring; new materials and techniques, including fibre-reinforced and high-strength concrete; structural analysis; alternate design methods. This book may be of interest to structural and construction engineers working on the design of tall buildings using cast-in-place concrete.
