The book highlights the importance of integrating structural systems through reinforcement details. Sometimes, engineers are misled by long output of computers that may or may not be relevant to the actual structure. It is important that the user of structural software has the foundations of structural analysis, design and synthesis before applying the software. This book is an excellent teacher and leader in concepts, design procedures, optimal designs and integrator of detailing of reinforcement.
