Control of Deflection in Concrete Structures

Description Design for serviceability is central to the work of struc-tural engineers and code-writing bodies. It is also essential tousers of the structures designed. Increased use of high-strength concrete with reinforcing bars and prestressed rein-forcement, coupled with more precise computer-aided limit-state serviceability designs, has resulted in lighter and morematerial-efficient structural elements and systems. This inturn […]
