Unknown | 07:19 | 0 nhận xét


Description:
Reynolds’s Reinforced Concrete Designer’s Handbook has been completely rewritten and updated for this new edition to take account of the numerous developments in design and practice over the last 20 years. These include significant revisions to British Standards and Codes of Practice, and the introduction of the new Eurocodes. The principal feature of the Handbook is the collection of over 200 full-page tables and charts, covering all aspects of structural analysis and reinforced concrete design. These, together with extensive numerical examples, will enable engineers to produce rapid and efficient designs for a large range ofconcrete structures conforming to the requirements of BS 5400, BS 8007, BS 8110 and Eurocode 2.

Design criteria, safety factors, loads and material properties are explained in the first part of the book. Details are then given of the analysis of structures ranging from single-span beams and cantilevers to complex multi-bay frames, shear walls, arches and containment structures. Miscellaneous structures such as helical stairs, shell roofs and bow girders are also covered.

A large section of the Handbook presents detailed information concerning the design of various types of reinforced concrete elements according to current design methods, and their use in such structures as buildings, bridges, cylindrical and rectangular tanks, silos, foundations, retaining walls, culverts and subways. All of the design tables and charts in this section of the Handbook are completely new.

This highly regarded work provides in one publication a wealth of information presented in a practical and user-friendly form. It is a unique reference source for structural engineers specialising in reinforced concretedesign, and will also be of considerable interest to lecturers and students of structural engineering.

About the Author:
Charles Edward Reynolds was born in 1900 and received his education at Tiffin Boys School, Kingston-on-Thames, and Battersea Polytechnic. After some years with Sir William Arroll, BRC and Simon Carves, he joined Leslie Turner and Partners, and later C W Glover and Partners. He was for some years Technical Editor of Concrete Publications Ltd and then became its Managing Editor, combining this post with private practice. In addition to the Reinforced Concrete Designer’s Handbook, of which almost 200, 000 copies have been sold since it first appeared in 1932, Charles Reynolds was the author of numerous other books, papers and articles concerning concrete and allied subjects. Among his various professional appointments, he served on the council of the Junior Institution of Engineers, and was the Honorary Editor of its journal at his death on Christmas Day 1971.

James Cyril Steedman was educated at Varndean Grammar School and first employed by British Rail, whom he joined in 1950 at the age of 16. In 1956 he began working for GKN Reinforcements Ltd and later moved to Malcolm Glover and Partners. His association with Charles Reynolds began when, after the publication of numerous articles in the magazine Concrete and Constructional Engineering, he accepted an appointment as Technical Editor of Concrete Publications, a post he held for seven years. He then continued in private practice, combining work for the Publications Division of the Cement and Concrete Association with his own writing and other activities. In 1981 he set up Jacys Computing Services, subsequently devoting much of his time to the development of micro-computer software for reinforced concrete design. He is the joint author, with Charles Reynolds, of Examples of the Design of Reinforced Concrete Buildings to BS 8110.

Anthony John Threlfall was educated at Liverpool Institute for Boys after which he studied civil engineering at Liverpool University. After eight years working for BRC, Pierhead Ltd, and IDC Ltd, he took a diploma course in concrete structures and technology at Imperial College. For the next four years he worked for CEGB and Camus Ltd, and then joined the Cement and Concrete Association in 1970, where he was engaged primarily in education and training activities until 1993. After leaving the C&CA, he has continued in private practice to provide training in reinforced and prestressed concrete design and detailing.

Foundation Design and Construction - Raymond K S Chan

Author: Working Group | Size: 3.8 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: Geotechnical Engineering Office | Year: 2006 | pages: 376



Book Description

The purpose of this document is to give guidance for the design and construction of foundations in Hong Kong. It is aimed at professionals and supervisory personnel involved in the design and construction of foundations. The document has been prepared on the assumption that the reader has some general knowledge of foundations. Foundations can be classified as shallow and deep foundations, depending on the depth of load-transfer from the structure to the ground. The definition of shallow foundations varies in different publications. BS 8004 (BSI, 1986) adopts an arbitrary embedment depth of 3 m as a way to define shallow foundations. In the context of this document, a shallow foundation is taken as one in which the depth to the bottom of the foundation is less than or equal to its least dimension (Terzaghi et al, 1996). Deep foundations usually refer to piles installed at depths and are :
(a) pre-manufactured and inserted into the ground by driving, jacking or other methods, or
(b) cast-in-place in a shaft formed in the ground by boring or excavation.

Traditional foundation design practice in Hong Kong relies, in part, on the British Code of Practice for Foundations (BSI, 1954), together with empirical rules formulated some 40 years ago from local experience with foundations in weathered rocks. Foundation design and construction for projects that require the approval of the Building Authority shall comply with the Buildings Ordinance and related regulations. The Code of Practice for Foundations (BD, 2004a) consolidates the practice commonly used in Hong Kong. Designs in accordance with the code are 'deemed-to-satisfy' the Buildings Ordinance and related regulations. Rational design approaches based on accepted engineering principles are recognised practice and are also allowed in the Code of Practice for Foundations. This publication is intended as a technical reference document that presents modern methods in the design of foundation. Rational design approaches require a greater geotechnical input including properly planned site investigations, field and laboratory testing, together with consideration of the method of construction. The use of rational methods to back-analyse results of loading tests on instrumented foundations or the monitored behaviour of prototype structures has led to a better understanding of foundation behaviour and enables more reliable and economical design to be employed. This should be continued to further enhance the knowledge such that improvements to foundation design can be made in future projects. A thorough understanding of the ground conditions is a pre-requisite to the success of a foundation project. An outline of geological conditions in Hong Kong is given in Chapter 2, along with guidance on the scope of site investigations required for the design of foundations. Shallow foundations are usually the most economical foundation option. The feasibility of using shallow foundations should be assessed. Chapter 3 provides guidance on some key design aspects and clarifying the intent of the methods. In Hong Kong, tall buildings in excess of 30 storeys are commonplace both on reclamations and on hillsides. Steel and concrete piles are generally used as building foundations. Timber piles, which were used extensively in the past to support low-rise buildings and for wharves and jetties, are not covered in this document. Guidance on the types of foundations commonly used in Hong Kong is given in Chapter 4. Factors to be considered in choosing the most appropriate pile type and the issue of design responsibility are given in Chapter 5, along with guidance on assessing the suitability of reusing existing piles. Guidance on methods of designing single piles and methods of assessing pile movement are given in Chapter 6. The design of pile groups and their movement are covered in Chapter 7. Given the nature of the geology of the urban areas of Hong Kong where granular soils predominate, emphasis has been placed on the design of piles in granular soil and weathered rock, although pile design in clay has also been outlined for use in areas underlain by argillaceous rock. Consideration of the practicalities of pile installation and the range of construction control measures form an integral part of pile design, since the method of construction can have a profound influence on the ground and hence on pile performance. A summary of pile construction techniques commonly used in Hong Kong and a discussion on a variety of issues to be addressed during construction, together with possible precautionary measures that may be adopted, are given in Chapter 8. In view of the many uncertainties inherent in the design of piles, it is difficult to predict with accuracy the behaviour of a pile, even with the use of sophisticated analyses. The actual performance of single piles is best verified by a loading test, and foundation performance by building settlement monitoring. Chapter 9 describes the types of, and procedures for, static and dynamic loading tests commonly used in Hong Kong.

Reinforced Concrete Designer' Handbook: Charles E. Reynolds [MF]

Unknown | 21:43 | 0 nhận xét
Reinforced Concrete Designer' Handbook: Charles E. Reynolds


The descriptive chapters that form Part I contain more general material concerning the tables. The tables themselves, with specific notes and worked examples in the appropriate chapters, form Part II, but much of the relevant text is embodied in Part I and this part of the Handbook should always be consulted. The development of the Handbook through successive editions has more or less negated the original purposes of this plan and it is hoped that when the next edition appears the arrangement will be drastically modified.
The revised edition of this classical reference has been completely updated to comply with the requirements of BS 8110. This practical design guide features 200 full pages of tables and charts encompassing all aspects of structual analysis and reinforced concrete design providing civil and structural engineers with the essential information for the production of rapid and efficient designs which conforms with current British Standards.
