An increase in the use of composite materials in areas of engineering has led to a greater demand for engineers versed in the design of structures made from such materials. This book offers students and […]
Engineering Mechanics of Composite Materials, 2/e analyzes the behavior and properties of composite materials–rigid, high-strength, lightweight components that can be used in infrastructure, aircraft, automobiles, biomedical products, and a myriad of other goods. This edition […]
Composite Construction has developed significantly since its origins approximately 100 years ago when the idea that the concrete fire protection around columns might be able to serve some structural purpose or that the concrete bridge […]
Eurocode 4: Part 1.1 Design of composite steel and concrete structures deals with the design of composite beams, slabs, and columns. The term ‘composite’ in this context means the structural action between concrete and steel […]
This book provides the basis for calculations of composite structures, using continuum mechanics to facilitate the treatment of more elaborate theories. A composite structure combines traditional materials (such as concrete) with new materials (such as […]
