Developed with the latest structural design recommendations by the National Design Specification (NDS 2005), the book covers recent advances in materials, money- and energy-saving strategies, safety guidelines, OSHA regulations, and dimensional tolerances. Up-to-date sample problems illustrate practical applications for calculating loads and stresses. This comprehensive manual also includes new summary tables and equations and a directory of suppliers.Formwork for Concrete Structures, Fourth Edition, covers: - Economy of formwork
- Pressure of concrete on formwork
- Properties of form material
- Form design
- Shores and scaffolding
- Failures of formwork
- Forms for footings, walls, and columns
- Forms for beams and floor slabs
- Patented forms for concrete floor systems
- Forms for thin-shell roof slabs
