Good Building/Structure Concrete book for newbie
Good Building/Structure Concrete book for newbie
(OP)
I have PCA notes ACI, CRSI.
but i am looking for a book that would help me understand how to design concrete structure "globally".
i dont have experience designing concrete structures but have done several steel structures.
thanks,

A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory

Three things which aren't commonly included in concrete design textbooks include:
Longitudinal (or horizontal) shear
Transmission of axial loads through floor systems
Strut-tie is often poorly covered (in my opinion)

I haven't seen the US edition, but presumably it's similarly worthwhile: MacGregor & Wight "Reinforced Concrete: Mechanics and Design"
