Description
The Strip Method Design Handbook is a comprehensive guide to the use of the strip method for the design of reinforced concrete slabs. The strip method is relevant to many types of slabs, including rectangular slabs with all sides supported and regular flat slabs with cantilevering parts. The book discusses unevenly distributed loads, concentrated loads and the influence of openings as well as joist floors and prestressed slabs. The method is illustrated throughout with numerical examples and the analysis is rationalised with approximations and formulas for the calculation of design moments. This book provides a practical guide for the designer demonstrating how to use the strip method in a wide range of design situations specific to a slab type.
