HB 71:2011 PDF Download

The HB 71:2011 standard, entitled Reinforced Concrete Design in accordance with AS 3600-2009, is a revised edition of the Reinforced Concrete Design Handbook. This standard has been updated to align with the 2009 edition of AS 3600 Concrete Structures and Amendment No. 1-2010. Additionally, it incorporates changes that have occurred in other Australian Standards since the publication of the fourth edition.

The revised standard utilizes modern design technology and employs spreadsheets to illustrate the design principles of reinforced concrete, as well as the requirements outlined in AS 3600 and the recommendations provided in the handbook. This approach ensures that the design process is aligned with current industry practices and enables designers to implement the standard effectively.

The primary objective of the HB 71:2011 standard is to provide clear guidelines and requirements for the design of reinforced concrete structures.
