The book is designed to serve as the first course for civil engineering students and a guide to design engineers. It is an outcome of more than 25 years of teaching of the subject to IIT Kanpur students and experience of field problems. Three basic methods of design, namely Working Stress Design (WSD), Limit State Design (LSD) and Ultimate Strength Design (USD) which are in practice are dealt with. The Limit State Design being the latest, very extensive presentation of the method applied to fully and partially prestressed concrete structures is made. An introduction to the probability failure analysis leading to the limit state concepts is illustrated along with some statistics of observations. Full and partial prestress designs based on the latest codes of practice are explained with a number of examples on variety of elements, such as beams, ties, columns, slabs, shells and bridges.
