Design of Concrete Structures 14th Edition, Arthur Nilson (2009)

About the Book

The 14th edition of the classic text, Design of Concrete Structures, is completely revised using the newly released 2008 ACI Code. The text covers the behavior and design aspects of concrete and provides thoroughly updated examples and homework problems throughout.The text presents the basic mechanics of structural concrete and methods for the design of individual members for bending, shear, torsion, and axial force, and also provides detail in the various types of structural systems applications.

Structural Analysis and Design of Tall Buildings: Steel and Composite Construction, Bungale S. Taranath (2011)

Author: Bungale S. Taranath | Size: 21.4 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Original preprint | Publisher: CRC Press | Year: October 18, 2011 | pages: 690 | ISBN: 978-1439850893



As software skills rise to the forefront of design concerns, the art of structural conceptualization is often minimized. Structural engineering, however, requires the marriage of artistic and intuitive designs with mathematical accuracy and detail. Computer analysis works to solidify and extend the creative idea or concept that might have started out as a sketch on the back of an envelope.

From Sketches on the Back of an Envelope to Elegant, Economical Buildings—The Art of Structural Conceptualization

Bridging the gap between the conceptual approach and computer analysis, Structural Analysis and Design of Tall Buildings: Steel and Composite Construction integrates the design aspects of steel and composite buildings in one volume. Using conceptual thinking and basic strength of material concepts as foundations, the book shows engineers how to use imperfect information to estimate the answer to larger and more complex design problems by breaking them down into more manageable pieces.

Dynamics of Structures, Anil K. Chopra, 4th Edition (2012)

Anil K. Chopra, "Dynamics of Structures, 4th Edition"
2012 | ISBN-10: 0132858037, 0273774247 | 992 pages | PDF | 16,7 MB

Designed for senior-level and graduate courses in Dynamics of Structures and Earthquake Engineering. 
Dynamics of Structures includes many topics encompassing the theory of structural dynamics and the application of this theory regarding earthquake analysis, response, and design of structures. No prior knowledge of structural dynamics is assumed and the manner of presentation is sufficiently detailed and integrated, to make the book suitable for self-study by students and professional engineers.

Summary: Certainly a must-have!
Rating: 5

I was required to buy this book for a steel design course, and was annoyed at first with how expensive and bulky this book was, since I assumed we would only be using it for the tables. Once I knew how to use the book, though, I grew quite fond of it. Not only are the tables clearly marked, but the Manual and the commentary in the back were better than our textbook at explaining which equations to use and how to apply them. We now call this book our quot;Bible quot; because it has helped and guided us through our steel courses.
