Nice book but... | Customer Rating: | Overall, the book is good based on the content and depth of material provided. I bought this book to prepare for the PE exam.
The Cons: One shortcoming that i do not like about the book is that, although it is updated to ACI 318-05, it does not give the ACI reference section number while discussing a particular item in the ACI code. Being not very conversant with ACI codes, i find this time consuming to try and locate the particular reference. It disrupts my reading and wastes alot of time while annoying at the same time. For example, while discussing beam flexure, the book states that 'the min steel required by the CODE is...' and no section # in the ACI code is given. It is up to the reader to figure out the code section.
The Pros. The book explains the basics very well and discusses the ACI code provisions. | New Book, but, looks bad | Customer Rating: | | This book was claimed to be new. The definition of "new" in mind was probably that it never has been used. This book looked as if it was taken off the inspection line and thrown into the rejected pile of books where some genius decided to steal and sale for his or her benifit. The book had uneven, badly cut pages. The entire book itself also was bowed pretty bad. The cut of the pages was so bad in some cases that it hung over the edge. The ink also can be very easily erased in its entirety. I noticed when i accidently marked on it and then erased it, erasing the words. I need the book and I needed asap so I'm keeping it. But the book was in bad conditions. |
