RE: (ask) recommend books reinforced concrete and prestress concrete

That will probably require two separate books.

For prestressed I can recommend "Design of Prestressed Concrete" by Arthur H. Nilson, if it's still available.

I found the textbook for the reinforced concrete I took to be confusing so I won't list it.

RE: (ask) recommend books reinforced concrete and prestress concrete

I agree with Archie264 that you will require two books.

For reinforced concrete, I recommend "Design of Reinforced Concrete" Seventh Edition by Jack McCormack. It is an old edition (ACI 318-05) and is available at a very reasonable price used from many sources.

RE: (ask) recommend books reinforced concrete and prestress concrete

Prestressed Concrete by T.Y Lin and Ned Burns, still available. Very extensive and easy to understand.
