Precast Concrete Structures by Kim S. Elliott is a comprehensive resource published by CRC Press in 2017. This second edition spans 694 pages and is presented in English, offering an in-depth exploration of the conceptual design ideas for the prefabrication of concrete structures. The book details the transition from BS 8110 to Eurocode EC2 and delves into the design, manufacture, and construction of precast concrete multi-storey buildings.
Readers will find a thorough examination of structural analysis related to precast concrete, supported by numerous worked examples that adhere to Eurocodes and European Product Standards. The text covers various aspects such as precast reinforced and prestressed concrete elements, composite construction, and frame stability. Additionally, the book is richly illustrated with over 500 photographs and line drawings, enhancing the understanding of the specifications and applications of precast concrete structures in the fields of technology, engineering, and construction.
Official synopsis Publisher
This second edition of Precast Concrete Structures introduces the conceptual design ideas for the prefabrication of concrete structures and presents a number of worked examples that translate designs from BS 8110 to Eurocode EC2, before going into the detail of the design, manufacture, and construction of precast concrete multi-storey buildings. Detailed structural analysis of precast concrete and its use is provided and some details are presented of recent precast skeletal frames of up to forty storeys.
The theory is supported by numerous worked examples to Eurocodes and European Product Standards for precast reinforced and prestressed concrete elements, composite construction, joints and connections and frame stability, together with extensive specifications for precast concrete structures. The book is extensively illustrated with over 500 photographs and line drawings.
