Great book for practicing engineers

August 15, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I ordered the book partway through the S.K. Ghosh webinar, while I was still listening. I knew after hearing to half of the webinar I wanted the book. I have made it halfway through Dirk's UCLA class and have really enjoyed learning from his insight. This appears to be a very practical book for practicing engineers. I look forward to completing the UCLA class and working my way through the book. I took a graduate level course on this about 30 years ago. This is a great refresher. I look forward to working on a post-tension project in the near future and this appears to be excellent for preparing for the design.

Best ever...

December 30, 2013

Format: Paperback

First a disclosure: one of the authors is my son. You would probably discover that from our last names. Nonetheless, as a specialist in the design and construction of post-tensioned concrete building structures for 50 years I feel qualified to submit a review. I will keep it as objective as I can :). This book is destined to become the definitive work on the design of post-tensioned concrete buildings for many decades to come. Written by structural engineers who design post-tensioned concrete buildings for a living and teach how to design them at the university level, there has simply never been anything like this book. It is an outstanding textbook with a crystal-clear presentation of indeterminate design and analysis fundamentals. But it is much more than a textbook. It is also an outstanding resource for the practicing structural engineer, with numerous design examples (including a chapter on seismic diaphragm design) and a chapter on the mitigation of restraint-to-shortening effects, a critical part of the design of any post-tensioned building but rarely addressed in writing. A highly unique and valuable chapter is presented on construction issues and structural observations, and finally chapters addressing two of the more exotic applications of post-tensioning, post-tensioned slabs-on-ground and externally applied post-tensioning for strengthening and repair. This book should be in every university classroom where prestressed concrete is taught, and it should be on the bookshelf of every structural engineering firm designing, or even thinking about designing, post-tensioned concrete buildings.
