Description
A course consisting of a structural design strand and a structural analysis strand. Design strand: Reinforced concrete elements; revision of limit states, concrete mechanical properties, reinforcement types and properties; durability requirements; behaviour of cross-sections in bending at both service and ultimate loads; ultimate strength analysis and design of cross-sections in both flexure (singly and doubly reinforced, ductility); serviceability analysis and design of beams (cracked section analysis, deflection and crack control); ultimate strength in shear; bond anchorage and curtailment (simple and continuous beams and one-way slabs); short and slender concrete columns (interaction diagrams). Analysis strand: Stiffness method (displacement method) of analysis for beams and frames; second order behaviour of frames; slenderness effects in frames; elastic stability analysis; software applications; moment distribution applied to continuous beams and non-sway frames; plastic analysis of continuous beams.
