Concrete folded plate roofs used to cover large open expanses of space can pose complex design problems soluble only through detailed mathematical analysis. This book introduces the engineer to practical schemes and practicalities, and goes on to provide multitudes of useful design tables, which allow linear interpolation, for a large range of various schemes of folded plate roofs to help the engineer with his designs. Design examples using both SI and USA (British Imperial) units are provided using these tables.

From the Publisher
Concrete folded plate roofs used to cover large open expanses of space can pose complex design problems solvable only through detailed mathematical analysis. This book introduces the engineer to the theory involved and goes on to provide essential formulae, examples, and most crucially, design tables which help the engineer address the design issues.
