"Floor structures account for the majority of all the structural material incorporated into a typical building and plate theories provide the information required to design them. This comprehensive book provides a wide-ranging account of the theoretical aspects of plate and slab theory - in essence structural floors - followed by a discussion of the construction and design of real plate and slab elements." "Basic Principles of Plates and Slabs will suit students of civil and structural engineering taking courses in structures, structural mechanics, or strength of materials. The practising engineer will also appreciate the careful and informative discussion of plate theory and the introduction of innovative new material."--Jacket.
