Welcome to the electronic version ofDesign and Construction of Concrete Masonry Buildings, containing the following features:

All navigation links within pages are shown in RED. Each page contains at least three navigation buttons, viz BOOK CONTENTS, CHAPTER CONTENTS and PREVIOUS PAGE.

Pages are set to Fit Page by default, but on a smaller monitor or to view in more detail, you might like to click on the Fit Width button in your Acrobat Reader.

Bookmarks are not supplied as the navigation system is sufficient, however, Pages (ie page thumbnails) are present and can be useful for smaller chapters.

There is no form of security on the pages which allows you to print at high resolution and to select and copy text and diagrams for use in other applications. However, be aware of the copyright limitations.

Sample Specification (in RTF format) and CAD Details (in DXF with some in EPS formats) are available for your use. See Part C:Chapter 3 in Book Contents and be aware of the copyright limitations.

Better performance may be had by downloading the entire CD contents into a folder on your hard disk (approximately 63 MB). Do not place the contents in different folders or locations as the navigation links will not be able to find the pages.

Free Updates are available. For details see Free Updates button below.

To start your exploration, go to the Book Contents button below.
