Summary: Schaum's misses boat
Comment: Wow!!! Schaum's and Noel Everard really missed the boat on this one! I really wish engineers would learn how to write and cohesively put ideas down on paper. Noel's concept of writing is to regurgitate a bunch of formulas that cross reference other formulas. If you are looking for concepts.... this is NOT the book for you.
I'm disappointed in Schaum's on this one. After using other outlines of theirs I had higher expectations. This one is really bad! No wonder it only cost 12 bucks.

Summary: Ancient History
Comment: This text was originally composed in 1966 and was updated in 1987 & 1993. Since the last update the design procedures recommended by the ACI have been radically revised and this book is therefore essentiall useless to today's designers. It might have some elementary applications, but the buyer should be warned major revisions in design procedures in the late 90's and after render the book outmoded

Summary: Reinforced Concrete
Comment: Typical of the Schaums series- It's a little bit out of date but the information really helps to fill out scribbled lecture notes and textbook examples.
Good stuff.

Summary: Schaum's Concrete
Comment: College texts only provide so many good examples and are sparse on the details. Schaum's fills in a large explanatory gap.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Too out-of-date
Comment: This reference is useful as a review of various types of concrete construction. However, it was last revised in 1993 and refers to the 1989 American Concrete Institute code, so while the content is generally correct, many of the code provisions have since changed.

Editorial Reviews:
|
This updated edition includes the following new information: the current procedures for providing quality control of the consistency of concrete strength; the computerized design of slabs; and all new material about column design. It also serves as an effective tutor for those in classes in architecture, architectural engineering and engineering technology and is an excellent reference, too, for practicing architects and engineers.
