The sixth edition of this comprehensive monograph onPrestressed Concrete is updated to meet the basic requirements of undergraduateand postgraduate students of Civil, Structural and Highway Engineering streamsand practicing structural engineers. The book incorporates the latestspecifications of the revised Indian, British and American codes, with emphasison the limit state concepts universally adopted in the design of prestressedconcrete structures. The design concepts, construction and rehabilitationtechniques are well illustrated through numerous worked out examples, figuresand case histories of actual structures.
