.The ninth edition of this highly respected textbook has been thoroughly revised and updated in accordance with the latest edition of the 2019 American Concrete Institute Building Code and Commentary (ACI 318-19). Major changes include new design provisions for shear, development length, beam-column joints, and deflections, among others. Numerous examples and end-of-chapter problems are provided throughout the textbook. To aid instructors, many problem solutions are also available as Mathcad? worksheets, allowing alternate solutions by modifying a few parameters at the choice of the instructor.1. Introduction, Materials, and Properties2. Design Methods and Requirements3. Flexural Behavior and Strength of Beams4. T-Sections in Bending5. Shear Strength and Design for Shear6. Development of Reinforcement7. Analysis of Continuous Beams and One-Way Slabs8. Design of One-Way Slabs9. Design of Slab-Beam-Girder and Joist Floor Systems10. Members in Compression and Bending11. Serviceability12. Monolithic Beam-Column Connections13. Slenderness Effects on Columns14. Strut-and-Tie Models: Deep Beams, Brackets, and Corbels15. Structural Walls16. Design of Two-Way Floor Systems17. Yield Line Theory of Slabs18. Torsion19. Footings20. Introduction to Prestressed Concrete21. Composite Members and ConnectionsJos? A. Pincheira, Gustavo J. Parra-Montesinos, Chu-Kia Wang, and Charles Salmon are all professors at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I like the fact that this benefits students for the course but also serves as a useful reference going forward in their careers. --Nadeau,
