Reinforced concrete (RC) refers to a type of building material that combines two or more materials with different physical properties to impart greater tensile strength and ductility to the structure of a building. RC structures are made up of composite materials constituted by concrete material, composites or polymers, and steel bars. The various methods utilized in the design of RC structures include the limit state method (LSM), the working stress method (WSM), and the ultimate load method (ULM). There are various types of structures that can be constructed using RC such as floating structures, marine structures, flyovers, chimneys and towers, water tanks, and retaining walls. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the drawing, design, and analysis of reinforced concrete structures. It is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area of civil engineering as well as for experts.
