Course Description:

Introduction. Design limit states. Ultimate and serviceability limit states. Design against axial actions: Assumptions, properties of materials. Rectangular sections. Axial tension. Prevalent bending, diagrams and CEB design tables. Prevalent compression. Columns, interaction diagrams. T-beams, analytical design and design tables. Anchorage of steel bars, bond, anchorage types, basic development length. Lap splices. Design for shear. Cyclic shear. Capacity design of beams in shear. Ductility. Capacity design of columns for bending and for shear. Torsion. Cracking. Modelling of RC structures. Construction detailing, minimum covers, distance of bars, allowed curvatures.
