Knovel resources for engineering design and construction

The Knovel database is a great resource for many aspects of engineering. As well as containing many full text chapters and books, it also has a lot of interactive tables.

One such table can be used to determine the appropriate amount of steel reinforcement required to control cracking in concrete.

Remember if you're outside DIT you'll need to use your student ID and library PIN.

If you are unsure about the PIN, just contact the library at DIT Bolton Street.
