DEVELOPMENTS IN PRESTRESSED CONCRETE - 1

This volume provides up-to-date information on developments in prestressed concrete technology. It is aimed primarily at those engineers in the practice of prestressed concrete design, and at those contemplating research on any aspect of prestressed concrete. The following chapters are included: (1) Bending, Shear and Torsion (Kong, FK); (2) Prestressing Steels and Systems (Mallett, GP); (3) Creep of Prestressed Concrete (Evans, RH and Kong, FK); (4) Partial prestressing (Bennett, EW); (5) Prestressed Lightweight Concrete (Swamy, RN); (6) Composite Prestressed Concrete (Edwards, AD).
