Gain the guidance and
information that inspectors and related professionals need to conduct
successful, thorough inspections of reinforced and pre-stressed concrete
constructions.
The Concrete Manual, now
updated to the 2006 International Building CodeŽ and ACI 318-05, begins by
introducing users to concrete: explaining what it is and why it behaves the way
it does.
Coverage then progresses to
conventional construction procedures.
The result is a valuable
resource that provides users with a solid understanding of the scientific
principles of concrete that make up the basis for sound construction practices.
With discussion of proper
materials and methods, as well as unsatisfactory materials and methods, this
book will increase the technical capabilities, decision-making skills, and
knowledge of jurisdictional inspectors as they perform everyday inspection
duties. |
