PREFACE
The whole information conveyed in this book has been planned and written for proper understanding of structural detailing of a building.
The approach in this book is to provide the readers sound and basic knowledge in structural detailing in a building. Consequently, I have given more details than is normally given in a book concerning detailing of structural members, which include slabs, beam, stairway and column.
This book will also provide some bases as a prerequisite in detailing worth of a small residential building.
All the works t o be carried out, as regard to this field are mostly, the work of a structural engineer throughout the end of the project.
