Course

Unit 1

Introduction to R.C structures – Review of basic material properties – Concrete and Reinforcing steel. Modeling of RC buildings using ETABs – Demands on structural elements – Design philosophies – Working stress method (WSM), Ultimate load method (ULM), Limit state method (LSM).. Behavior in Flexure, Shear and Torsion, design for bond – development length, splicing, curtailment. Serviceability requirements. Analysis and design with and without shear reinforcement.

Unit 2

Analysis of Beams using Working Stress Method – Design of Beams using Limit State Method – singly and doubly reinforced rectangular and flanged sections. Design of one-way slabs and two-way rectangular slabs (wall-supported) – as per IS 456: 2000. Design of Compression Members: effective length, short columns subject to axial compression with and without uniaxial / biaxial eccentricities. Design for Torsion – Overview of design for combined actions (torsion- shear-axial-flexure) – Design of beam-column joint – Preparation of Design sheets for different structural elements

Unit 3

Introduction to types of footing. Design of isolated footing for axially loaded & eccentrically loaded columns and combined footing. Introduction to prestress-concrete
