Features: This book is based on the experience of crack control in engineering practice and applies the design principle of "resistance and release" to explore the technical characteristics and application conditions of permanent deformation joints, post-pouring joints, and skip construction methods. The focus is on the application technology of skip method in recent years to address crack control in ultra-long-span reinforced concrete structures, replacing permanent deformation joints and post-pouring joints. The book consists of two parts. Part 1 introduces the basic concepts of "resistance and release," with 4 chapters covering: cracks in large-volume reinforced concrete structures, concrete tensile strength, temperature stress theory, and crack control in large-volume concrete structures. Part 2 focuses on the construction technology of "skip method," with 3 chapters covering: "skip construction technology," "skip construction practice," and "skip engineering experience." This book is available for reference by a wide range of civil engineering technical personnel, researchers, and faculty and students of universities and colleges.
