Opis

This text guides the reader through the background to the Eurocodes and explains the main differences between them and the equivalent British Standard Codes of Practice. The main part of the book covers section analysis of slabs and beams, beam-column joints, columns and walls. A complete design example is given and the book contains many worked examples, design charts and tables for easy reference. Eight appendices deal with specialized aspects of structural design in more detail.
