Opis

This major handbook covers the structural use of brick and blockwork. A major feature is a series of step-by-step design examples of typical elements and buildings.

The book has been revised to include updates to the code of practice BS 5628:2000-2 and the 2004 version of Part A of the Building Regulations. New information on sustainability issues, innovation in masonry, health and safety issues and technical developments has been added.

Recenzje

‘This is essential reading for all civil structural design offices involved with masonry design and is now established as the standard work on the subject.’ – New Civil Engineer

‘This is an excellent reference … especially for sites with difficult ground conditions.’ – The Structural Engineer

′Looks crisp and with a modern style of illustration, is easy to read for a technical manual. As a full and comprehensive review of structural masonry, authoritatively written and covering most of the aspects likely to be encountered in practice, it is a hugely useful manual.′ Institution of Structural Engineers

′This book is a precious gift for the consulting/ design engineers and students.′ Journal of Structural Engineering
