Product Information
A concise and practical introduction to the new European Code of Practice for Design of Concrete Structures, EC2. This book guides the reader through the background to the Eurocodes and explains the main differences between them and the equivalent British Standard Codes of Practice. The main part of the book covers section analysis of slabs and beams, beam-column joints, columns and walls. A complete design example is given and the book contains many worked examples, design charts and tables for easy reference. Eight appendices deal with specialized aspects of structural design in more detail. A special feature of the book is a chapter devoted to earthquake engineering with particular reference to the draft Eurocode 8 on seismic actions. An Introduction to Eurocode 2 will be invaluable for engineers who need to learn about the new code and how it can be used effectively in design. Practising engineers, lecturers and students will find it a clear and accessible way to find out about EC2 and to prepare for the time when it replaces the UK codes.Product Identifiers
