Preface to the Third Edition

The third edition conforms to BS 8110 and includes a new Chapter 12 on microcomputer programs. Like the earlier editions, it is intended as an easy-to-read main text for university and college courses in civil and struc-tural engineering. The threefold aim of the book remains as before, namely:

(a) To explain in simple terms the basic theories and the fundamental behaviour of structural concrete members.

(b) To show with worked examples how to design such members to satisfy the requirements of BS 8110.

(c) To explain simply the technical background to the BS 8110 require-ments, relating these where appropriate to more recent research.

Students will find the new edition helpful in their attempts to get to grips with the why as well as the what and the how of the subject.

For the convenience of those readers who are interested mainly in structural design to BS 8110, most of the chapters begin with a Preliminary note which lists those parts of the chapter that are directly concerned with BS 8110. However, structural design is not just BS 8110; hence the university or college student should pay attention also to the rest of the book, which has been written with the finn belief that the emphasis of an engineering degree course must be on a , sound understanding of the fundamentals and an ability to apply the relevant scientific principles to the solution of practical problems. The authors wish to quote from a letter by Mr G. J. Zunz, co-Chairman of Ove Arup and Partners:

You will see that generally my comments tend to place emphasis on getting the fundamentals straight. As my experience and that of my colleagues develops, I find more and more that it is the fundamentals that matter and those without a sound training in them suffer for the rest of their careers.
