This book provides a comprehensive understanding of the design and construction of waterretaining structures. allowing graduate civil and structural engineering students. as well
as the practising engineer. to design with speed and economy. Assuming some familiarity with BS 8110 Structural Use of Concrete the book draws on examples. many of which
are based on actual completed structures. and upon extensive tables. related to the analysis of rectangular. circular and conical structures, to develop good working practice. The tables and examples will enable the engineer to check, by hand, the often complex results of computer analysis and output. usually based on the finite element method. for most structures. This is particularly so in those cases where the forces within a structure are affected by the ground upon which they sit. Thus, methods of designing for the soil/structure interaction, which normally require the aid of complex computer programs. are included. The tables and examples will prove to be a good reference for carrying out new work to modern methods and regulations. and will give direction to the student engineer in the use of currrent British Standards for the design of many types of concrete structures.
An essential part of the book are the listed computer programs and output which further assist the designer in obtaining a range of options from which the most effective and economical solution may be determined for a particular structure; whilst a useful appendix covers the analysis of ground-supported open circular concrete tanks.
