Precast Concrete Structures introduces the subject in detail, looking at the design process, manufacture and construction using precast concrete for multi-storey buildings. Detailed structural analysis of the material and its use is provided. The theory is supported by practical case studies, worked examples and explanatory illustrations throughout.

Endorsed by the British Precast Concrete Federation and written by an acknowledged authority, this is the first book to explain and educate the student in the uses and advantages of precast concrete.

Cr�ticas

'Kim Elliott's latest book removes any excuse a designer could have for being ignorant of good precast design...
Specific areas where the book scores in my opinion, are as follows:
-Comprehensive information on the structural properties of the various pre-stressed hollowcore floor units.
-Methods of economical composite design incorporating precast reinforced concrete beams, slabs and in situ structural toppings.
-Billet design in beam to column and beam to beam connections.
-Braced and unbraced frame design.
-An excellent chapter on robustness ties.'
George Tootell, Building Engineer Journal.

'It is very well presented, with clearly laid out examples and numerous line diagrams and photos... for libraries and young engineering needing an accessible introduction to precast concrete structures the book cannot be bettered... Recommended."
Concrete Engineering International, Summer 2003
