Description
Concrete structures can be designed for durability by applying the principles and procedures of reliability theory combined with traditional structural design. This book is the first systematic attempt to introduce into structural design a general theory of structural reliability and existing calculation models for common degradation processes. It covers both the theoretical background and practical design for service life and includes worked examples which highlight the application of the design procedure and methods. Durability Design of Concrete Structures introduces the statistical background and explains how models of deterioration processes can be used to predict durability characteristics of concrete structures. It will enable designers to design for the required life of a structure and will be valuable for structural designers, and for researchers in the field of civil and structural engineering. This book has been prepared by RILEM Technical Committee 130-CSL.
