Reinforced Concrete Design

by Charles G. Salmon and Chu-Kai Wang

The sixth edition of this bestselling textbook provides the same philosophical approach that has gained wide acceptance since the first edition was published in 1965. The strength and behavior of concrete elements are treated with the primary objective of explaining and justifying the rules and formulas of the ACI Building Code. The treatment is incorporated into the chapters in such a way that the reader may study the concepts in a logical sequence...

Customer Reviews

Very Good book- recommended

Its a very good book. It is self explanatory. It covers ACI-318-05 in detail. I highly recommend this book for a masters student.

Structural Eng., P.E.

Now, when Building Code Requerments for Structural Concrete(ACE 318-08) become more and more complicate, not clear, and too difficult for engineering practice, this book can be used by professional engineers and students too, because has a lot of samples and clear schemes.

Straight to the Point

The discussions were clear and the sample problems hit the bull's eye. I recommend this book to be included in the school library.

Excellent Examples

This book has excellent examples for thoroughly designing reinforced concrete structural members. It references directly to the ACI code.

Awesome!!!

Salmon is by far one of the better text books on the market today. Any Student wanting to learn both the theory and practical applications to reinfroced concrete design, this is the book to get. The best part about the book is that it makes you think and work to understand the material, while providing excellent example problems.
