Good Book
| Customer Rating: | I own this book and found it a reasonable good reference on concrete, and it contained a tremendous amount of good information. But I wasn't inspired to tackle my own DIY concrete project after reading it. It did give me respect for the trades/subcons that do this work.
I'm currently planning on hiring out the concrete foundation work to subcontractors on my home remodel, so this will be a good reference.

Where's the detail on using rebar in concrete?
| Customer Rating: | | This is one of two books I purchased with the expectation of finding some detail on rebar design for monolithic slabs. Both books fall short in writing or displaying even the most basic design for rebar in a slab (see my other review on a similar book on working with concrete). This book does a little better job in showing how to make and use concrete forms. |
Great for people who like to do things right the first time
| Customer Rating: | | This is good for even advanced people as it gives little trade sercerts for stronger walls. Its a good book and a must if you are doing concrete work yourself. |
no help
| Customer Rating: | | I bought this without reading the reviews, it was a mistake. I am designing an addition and need a clear guide from forms to finishing. This isn't it. As meantioned, it is a collection of articles. While informative, there are major gaps in coverage and I am no more ready to design my foundation than before. There is more useful info on foundations in the framing books I purchased. |
Disappointment
| Customer Rating: | | This book lacks the details for someone who is looking to actually do the work themselves. As mentioned in one of the other reviews - this book is just a composite of magazine article. Typical of magazine articles - shallow with little substance. |
