Does anyone know of a good source of reference/resource for designing mat foundations?

ACI360 Design of Slabs on Grade
Wire Reinforcement Institute Design of Slab-On-Ground Foundations
Building Research Advisory Board of National Academy of Sciences Criteria for Selection and Design of Residential Slabs-on-Ground This one is biggest by far. The last two were on the internet a few years ago.
