{ "item_title" : "Seismic Design of Reinforced Concrete Shear Walls", "item_author" : [" Sayed Mahmoud "], "item_description" : "This book introduces undergraduate students, structural engineers, and architects to the design aspects of ordinary RC shear walls. It is designed to serve either as a text for a course in RC wall design or as a reference for systematic self-study of the subject. The explains the complete design of shear walls using a sequence that follows the same order that would unfold in an actual design. The author pulls together the design of the ordinary RC shear walls with various configurations into a single reference and many practical design examples are provided throughout. The book utilizes design codes and current industry literature as the basis for structural wall design specifications and draws upon publications of the American Concrete Institute Standards, i.e., Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete ACI 318-19, and Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures ASCE 7-22. The book is divided into seven chapters. Chapter 1 provides determination of the center of mass and the center of rigidity. Chapter 2 deals with distribution of direct and indirect shear. Chapter 3 focuses on the computations of seismic design base shear. Chapter 4 discusses the slenderness of the walls. Chapter 5 considers the design of ordinary RC shear walls with practical and real examples. Chapter 6 study the slenderness phenomenon and its influence on the load-carrying capacity of the loaded RC walls. Chapter 7 presents the development anchorage, and splicing of reinforcing steel bars. Throughout the book, the presented design procedures followed the recently updated code requirements. Moreover, a roadmap is provided enabling students, recent graduates, and practicing engineers to create their own programming codes. The book contains abundant two- and three-dimensional figures to facilitate the reader's explanation and analysis procedures as well as adding clarity and demonstrating the key points. Illustrates several configurations of RC shear walls are not always considered in the available texts Supports creation of programming codes using many of the available computer tools, to increase design productivity Reinforces concepts presented with practical examples from field work ", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/3/03/236/929/3032369290_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "89.99", "online_price" : "89.99", "our_price" : "89.99", "club_price" : "89.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
