'Precast Concrete Structures' introduces the subject in detail looking at the design process, manufacture and construction using precast concrete for multi-storey buildings. Detailed structural analysis of the material and its use is provided. The theory is supported by practical case studies and worked examples. There are explanatory illustrations throughout. Endorsed by the British Precast Concrete Federation and written by an acknowledged authority, this is the first book to explain and educate the student in the uses and advantages of precast concrete. First book on design of precast concrete structures for undergraduate students in civil and structural engineering, building technology and architecture.Fully illustrated with many worked examples.Written by an expert with many years industrial and teaching experience in the subject.
