Now in its fourth edition, this manual has been the "Concrete Detailers' Bible" for more than 50 years.

This new edition (2021) is the first in 15 years – and reflects a major new approach to the application of BS EN 1992 to concrete detailing practice. The text has been thoroughly reviewed — with new detailing aids and more emphasis on the requirements for detailing, rather than design.

• Fully updated in accordance with BS 8666:2020 (including the latest Shape Codes)
• 40 new Model Details
• A substantially revised and updated chapter on prestressed concrete
• Comprehensive new reference list
