More stress has been given to the Limit State Method of Analysis which is based on the ultimate strength of the structures. More examples on Limit State Method of Analysis and Design have been included. Limit State Method of Design has been illustrated in the Chapters on Foundation and Footing (Chapter 9) as well as for Retaining Walls In Chapter 13, in which Design features of Building Frames have provided including provisions in Limit State Method, a section has been included for discussion on Seismic Method of Analysis for Buildings. This will be helpful for the students and the designers. In Chapter 16, a section has been included on the Design of Overhead Water Tanks and Staging. An example on Design of an Overhead Water Tank including the staging has been inserted. Chapter 15, discussing Yield Lime Theory and Strip Methods has been retained, as these are connected with the ulitmate Design of Reinforced Concrete Slabs. Chapter 17, dealing with Deflections, Limit Method of Analysis and Cracking of concrete are important when design of structures are done on basis of ultimate strengths. A new Chapter on Deep Beam has been included as Chapter 19 with several examples on design of Deep Beam, used in hoppers, sides. Chapter 20 has been added for discussion as Distribution of Concentrated Loads, other related problems and Design of Bridges and Box Culverts. Suitable examples on Design of Slab and Deck Girder Bridges and Box Culverts have also been included. Besides a typical design of a R.C. Jetty supported on piles has also been included.
