Features: This book systematically introduces methods for using computers to design concrete structures. It begins by introducing the basic concepts of computer-aided design (CAD), then covers the methods for computer analysis of concrete structures and computer-aided drafting of construction drawings. It includes both theoretical explanations and programming methods, along with practical examples. Readers can directly refer to the designs and operations. The book covers the following content: overall structure of the building structure CAD system; pre-processing and post-processing of plan frame CAD; internal force combination of sections; calculation of section strength, cracks, and deformation; reinforcement calculation for beams and columns; generation of construction drawings; graphic output; matrix Chinese character and vector Chinese character drawing; graphic system development; graphic file conversion; graphic interactive input, and examples of reinforced concrete continuous beam CAD programs, etc. Each chapter includes corresponding source code.
