Download Design of Reinforced Concrete by Jack C. McCormac and James K. Nelson

Reinforced Concrete Structures are widely being constructed throughout the world and because of availability of raw materials required to design a mix, they lead other building materials like wood, stones etc. Mostly the code and guidelines used to design reinforced concrete structures is that of American Concrete Institute (ACI). In this post I will be sharing with you a book Titled “Design of Reinforced Concrete ACI 318-05 Code Edition”.  The material of the book is written in such a manner as to interest students in the subject of Reinforced Cement Concrete and to encourage them to continue its study in the years to come. This book is used in many institutions as a text book for the three-credit course.

For this book there is a special website being built for the students and instructors, i.e. www.wiley.com/college/mccormac The website contains solution manuals, figures, tables, design aids etc.

The main feature of this book is the computer examples and problems, which utilizes computer programs like excel etc to solve many problems. The book comprises of 21 chapters with extension of appendixes as A, B and C and a glossary is provided at the end.
