Features: This textbook is divided into three volumes: Upper, Middle, and Lower. The upper volume focuses on the principles of concrete structure design, primarily covering fundamental theories and basic components. The middle volume deals with the design of concrete and masonry structures, mainly including floor slabs, single-story workshops, multi-story frames, and high-rise buildings. The lower volume covers the design of highway bridges and other structures. The upper volume consists of 10 chapters, primarily written based on the newly revised "Code for Design of Concrete Structures" GB50010—2002. The content includes: Introduction, physical and mechanical properties of concrete structure materials, limit state design method based on probability theory, flexure capacity of bending members in normal sections, shear capacity of inclined sections, section capacity of compression members, section capacity of tension members, torsional capacity of twisted sections of reinforced concrete members, deformation, cracks, and durability of concrete structures, and prestressed concrete members. This textbook can serve as a professional foundational course textbook for undergraduate civil engineering majors and is also a reference for technicians engaged in concrete structure design, production, and construction.
