The process of studying this or any other technical book consists in committing to memory with great exactness a series of abstract laws and building up in mind a series of definite pictures of the force systems, the structures and so on, which furnish concrete expressions of these laws. Read through any article of this text for the first time with the purpose of seeing the general outlines of the picture there presented. Do not try to fill in the details word by word at first. If the meaning of a sentence is not clear, pass on to the next explanation of the difficulty may be there. After the outline is seen, perhaps dimly, read through the article again with more attention to detail. Use scratch paper and pencil liberally. Make many sketches. No problem can be understood until all the elements are clearly placed. A book with empty margins has never been properly studied. Here should show neat notes and sketches in amplification and explanation. When a statement or equation is obscure determine what would be a correct statement and compare with that given. This book should be studied in connection with the larger reference works in this field, such as the first two books contain much valuable information on the many tests that have been made to verify theoretical reasoning. These test data should be carefully studied. Lastly - do not fail to read carefully Professor Geo. F. Swain's little book on "How to Study." The design of reinforced concrete structures involves two major problems: first, the determination of the type and general features of the structure required for the purpose in hand; second, the detailed proportioning of the various members, such as slabs, beams, columns and footings, which make up the whole. For example, the engineer who is planning a reinforced concrete factory must study the requirements of the manufacturing process to be housed therein and lay out a building whose arrangement as regards floor plan, column spacing, story height, lighting, and elevator service and so on, makes possible the utmost efficiency of production. The factory must be fitted to the manufacturing process. The general layout being settled, the engineer next proportions the reinforced concrete skeleton and records this design in the structural drawings. It is evident that these two major problems are closely interrelated; that decisions as to details of arrangement must constantly be based upon knowledge of the possibilities, limitations and economical use of the structural materials. Furthermore, the designer is responsible not only for the adequacy and strength of the structure but also for its durability, economy, and good appearance. It is not within the scope of this book neither to consider the first of these major problems of design nor to do more than introduce the reader to the elements of the second. Experience in active practice is necessary to give the knowledge and judgment necessary for the successful planning of structures since that requires familiarity with construction methods and with the costs of labor, of material, and of finished structures in whole and in detail. This elementary text is limited to a brief outline of the methods of making strong and durable concrete, and to a somewhat more thorough study of the application of the principles of theoretical mechanics to the proportioning of structural members, in conformity to the general usage of modern practice. In the United States modern practice has been standardized to conform fairly closely with the recommendations made by a "Joint Committee on Standard Specifications for Concrete and Reinforced Concrete," composed of representatives from five national engineering groups.' The first Joint Committee was organized in 1904 and ended its existence on the presentation of its third and final report in 1916. In 1919 the present Joint Committee was organized and has presented two reports, a "Tentative Specification" in 1921 which was in the nature of a progress report, and in 1924, one entitled "Standard Specifications for Concrete and Reinforced Concrete."
