Hi
Which precast design book (either Prestressed or RC) would you recommend especially for connection details, precast slab (Hollow Core, Precast Tee, Precast Plank etc..)& precast beams?
Thanks

RE: Recommended Precast Design Book
I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.
RE: Recommended Precast Design Book
You mentioned only beams and slabs; if you have other tasks such as below grade structures, pavement slabs, bridge decks, columns, wall panels, or other such precast items I can give you some direction on those as well.

Thank you.
BTW. Where can I buy PCI design handbook softcopy? And I am not a PCI member.
RE: Recommended Precast Design Book
PCI also has a bridge design manual as well if you're doing bridges rather than buildings.
