This book has been developed through the author's teaching of a course in Reinforced Concrete Design at the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. The examples are graded, leading from an appreciation of reinforced concrete behaviour, through the design of structural elements, to the analysis of a reinforced concrete structure. The student's understanding of the calculations is deepened by the "Notes on Calculations" while the Introductory" and "Concluding" notes set each example in a wider context. Hence, in this book, design principles are reinforced through practice, with guidance from notes.
