Features: This book is a professional basic course textbook for civil engineering majors in higher education institutions. It includes an introduction, the physical and mechanical properties of materials, the basic principles of the limit state design method for structural members based on probability theory, as well as the analysis of load-bearing performance, design calculations, and structural measures for flexural members, axially loaded members, eccentrically loaded members, torsional members, and prestressed concrete members. This book is written according to China's latest promulgated "Code for Design of Concrete Structures" (GB50010-2002) and "Code for Design of Highway Reinforced Concrete and Prestressed Concrete Bridges and Culverts." This book provides a thorough discussion of the performance and analysis of concrete structural members, with clear concepts, explicit calculation methods, detailed design steps, and a substantial number of worked examples, which are helpful for understanding the load-bearing performance and specific design calculation methods of structural members. Each chapter includes summaries, review questions, and exercises. The text is easy to understand, with explanations that progress from simple to complex and are systematic, making it convenient for self-study. The book also provides English expressions for some professional terms. This book can be used as a textbook for civil engineering majors in higher education institutions and can also be referenced by design, construction, and research personnel in related fields.
