Reinforced Concrete can be defined as both a Science and Art. Successful
design of reinforced concrete not only satisfies the design equations, but
also must be capable of being built at a reasonable cost. There fore the
object of this course as one of the series of reinforced concrete courses is
to enable the engineering students to understand the basics and some
advanced concepts in design and analysis of reinforced concrete
structures subjected to several cases of loading.
It is presumed that students have acquired previously a good and sound
understanding of basics in structural analysis (Structure 1), properties of
concrete and design of some reinforced concrete elements (Reinforced
Concrete 1). This course is designed to focus on design and analysis of
reinforced concrete structure. The material will be covered through
topics devoted to the design and analysis of a certain advanced concepts
in reinforced concrete structures such as design of, Slender columns,
moment magnification, design of isolated , combined wall and strap
footings, Mat Foundations axially loaded footings, , eccentrically loaded
footings, continuous beams and frames, pattern loading, moment
envelopes, moment redistribution, estimation of dead and live loads,
deflections, crack control, design of bearing walls, detailing of
reinforcement. Design of slabs using direct design method and
equivalent frame methods ,one –way solid and ribbed slabs and two-way
slabs retaining walls, design of stairs, , design for torsion, design of
concrete halls and water tanks, seismic design . . . etc. Details of these
chapters as shown below.
