Preface

The widespread use- of reinforce4 concrete in a variety of structural mem-

bers in the construction industry has necessitated a proper understanding

of the design and detailing procedures adopte,r by civil and structural

engineers. The first Indian standard code of practice for plain and rein-

forced concrete was published in 1953 and revised in 1964 wiih major

emphasis on working stress design. The third revision published in 1978

incolporated the Iimit'state design in conjunction with the working stress design.
