ABSTRACT

Based primarily on Eurocode 2, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of theory alongside a substantial collection of solved examples. Intended for students and professionals specializing in structural engineering, the content delves into the fundamental aspects of designing and evaluating concrete structures. Discover a unique focus on both theoretical and practical aspects, empowering engineers to unearth solutions that minimize steel usage. Step into the realm of asymmetric and environmentally appealing alternatives, redefining the way we approach modern engineering challenges.
