Publisher Summary 1
The second edition of this volume on building with precast concrete provides updated information on German and European standards for a variety of industrial construction techniques and processes. Beginning with an overview of the historical development of precast construction and European standardization of the practice, the volume details several areas of component design including load bearing elements, suspended floors, walls and foundations, joining mechanisms between precast elements, and methods and best practices in factory production of precast components. The work includes numerous illustrations and technical drawings as well as load, span and other important charts and tables. A CD-ROM providing complimentary design software is included. Steinle and Bachmann are experienced construction engineers and experts on German and European building codes and standards. Annotation 漏2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
Publisher Summary 2
The book reflects the current situation in precast concrete construction. Besides general observations regarding building with precast concrete elements, the book focuses first and foremost on the boundary conditions for the design of precast concrete structures, loadbearing elements and fa?ades. Connections and specific structural and constructional issues are covered in detail and stability of precast concrete structures is another central theme. The requirements brought about by the emergence of the European Single Market are explained and the diverse possibilities for fa?ade design are presented. A chapter on the production processes provides the reader with an indispensable insight into the characteristics of this form of industrialised building.
The book is a practical tool for engineers, but certainly also architects and students.
One of the authors' intentions is to demonstrate to engineers and architects the possibilities that factory prefabrication can offer, and hence pave the way towards the economic application and ongoing development of precast concrete construction.
