Reinforced Concrete Design By Oyenuga Rar

Some major projects handled by me, in most cases as the leading engineer, include;

Roads and Airfields: Iwere-Ile Wasimi Road (F118). This is a 44km earth road designed to the Trunk 'A' asphaltic cement paved road (Design speed, 110km/hr). The road consists of two major bridges at km.6 (45m span) and km.43.6 (105m span). The bridges were of reinforced concrete types standing on piles.

I led the design team that handled both the survey and design of the Auchi - Agenebode Road project -- 64km. (2nd year Highway Sector Loan -World Bank Project) which has been completed and that of Bida - Busu - Dutsun Road.

I led out in the design check and supervision of Azare Air Strip.

Buildings and Other Projects: Some of the building projects handled include:

Ikeja Plaza: This is a four storey building structure comprising of beams and waffle slab housing a modern market and a bank. The then N10m (about $15m) structure was handed over to the Lagos State Government in July, 1990.

Teslim Balogun Stadium Complex: This is an Ultra-Modern Stadium project for Lagos State Government. The complex comprises the Main Bowl (25,000 capacity), Sport Hall, Olympic Size Swimming Pool and Swimming Pool Pavilion, Squash Court and Lawn Tennis Court and Pavilion. It was used for FIFA Junior World Cup in 2009.

Gulf Oil/NNPC Housing Estate: This is a N450m Housing Estate for Gulf Oil Nig. Ltd. A team of engineers including myself designed the project, which has been commissioned.

Apapa Jetties For NNPC: Reconstruction of the Petroleum Products Jetties, Apapa. The Works had been commissioned. The civil engineering design consists of the jetties, jetty infrastructures and shoreline protection including anchored concrete sheet piles. Total cost was $41m plus N294m.

Babcock University: Babcock University is one of the first set of private universities approved by the Federal Government of Nigeria in 1999. I was involved in the production of the University Master Plan and am currently a leading member of the multi-disciplinary consultants for the University Projects including faculty buildings, stadium complex, Roads and Water Supply.

Other Projects: Other projects handled by me which are yet to be executed include the 17-Storey Nuru Oniwo Tower and a 10-Storey high rise building for Eko International Bank PLC.

Even for a cursory reviewer or reader the all-pervading treasure embedded in the book is eloquent enough and to that extent it is a suitable handbook. But judge by the comprehensiveness of its treatment of concrete structure elemental design and the rudimentary approach employed, it is an indispensable textbook, which all Civil and Building Engineering Students should have.

The book has been written from the rich background (theoretical and practical) of the author in analysis of structures and design of reinforced concrete, in particular. The various subject treated in the book are backed with examples that could be easily followed by young engineers and even experienced designers could use it as quick references . The computer programming will be found useful to the designers as this is the tool for the next millennium in the development of engineering analysis all over the world.

This book is highly recommended for practicing civil and structural engineers to be used as reference or manual in both the design office and construction site activities.

The computer approach incorporated in the treatment of the various topics makes the book a relevant text for all time. It is an excellent book which anyone that works with reinforced concrete should aspire to own.

The book meets the requirements for the professional examinations of the Nigeria Institute of Building and is so endorsed for adoption.

The book presents a unified view of the processes that are involved in the design of reinforced concrete structures... Each design is followed by detailed drawings of all the structural elements. The book is well written. It sufficiently covers the OND and HND programmes and SSc programme in the area of reinforced concrete structures. The book is also good for practicing Engineers

Our opinion of this "overdue" book on practical reinforced concrete design is that, it combined in one text-book chapters on theoretical, practical and computer application in reinforced concrete elemental design.
