Structural Analysis: Principles, Methods and Modelling outlines the fundamentals involved in analyzing engineering structures, and effectively presents the derivations used for analytical and numerical formulations. This text explains practical and relevant concepts, and lays down the foundation for a solid mathematical background that incorporates MATLAB^(R) (no prior knowledge of MATLAB is necessary), and includes numerous worked examples.

Steel-concrete composite construction has been
gaining popularity over the last century thanks to
its ability to well marry the advantages of
structural components made of concrete and steel.
This work studies the behaviour of composite beams
with partial shear interaction by means of the direct
stiffness approach.
An analytical model is presented to describe the
behaviour of m-layered composite beams. For the
particular case of two layers closed form solutions
are derived to predict the composite behaviour in the
linear-elastic range and accounting for time effects.
Based on this model, a...

Serviceability failures of concrete structures involving excessive cracking or deflection are relatively common, even in structures that comply with code requirements. This book helps engineers to rationally predict the time-varying deformation of concrete structures under typical in-service conditions.

The design of structures in general, and prestressed concrete structures in particular, requires considerably more information than is contained in building codes. A sound understanding of structural behaviour at all stages of loading is essential. This textbook presents a detailed description and explanation of the behaviour of prestressed concrete members and structures both at service loads and at ultimate loads and, in doing so, provide a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to structural design.

Much of the text is based on first principles and relies only on the...
