Code Book for Design of Reinforced Concrete - IS 456

Hi!!!

Its been a while since I had posted here on this blog. I guess my last post was more than a week back if 

I remember correctly. Well, my research work as well as my teaching schedule at work place was 

keeping me busy all week long along with family commitments as well. Squeezed in some time 

today to sit with my blog. Today I am posting for you the code book for design of reinforced 

concrete IS 456 - code of practice for plain and reinforced concrete.
This code has five sections and eight annexes. Section one is general, whereas section two deals with

 material, workmanship inspection and testing. Section three lays out the general design considerations

 while section four talks about special design requirements for structural members and systems. Section

 five describes the limit state method of design. Of course, it is a fairly common code book available 

easily, if I might say so, in the internet. But still, felt that this blog would be incomplete if a very basic 

but essential code such as this isn't available for student reference. So posting it for the benefit of my 

students and readers. Cheers!!!
