Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book concerns the analysis of concrete-encased steel columns and the effects on these structures from variations in design. It was produced after the author noted a variance between predicted and actual strengths of encased steel columns. The author presents an investigation comparing plain steel columns with concrete-encased steel. Included is a study varying the concrete mix, amount of encased concrete, and comparisons of the strength of concrete in the columns to cylinders and cubes made of the same mix. The author also presents comparisons of different lengths and the effect of length on strength. The book concludes with recommendations for design and analysis of concrete-encased steel reinforcement including permissible stresses, how to combine the strength of the steel and the concrete, and the value of concrete covering for fireproofing. Despite its age, the bookâs findings on the physical behavior of combined steel and concrete columns remain useful today.
