CCE57600 - Advanced Reinforced Concrete Design

Design and behavior of columns, two-way slab and slab-beam floor systems, and beam-column joints; strut-and-tie models.

Credits: 3


Description: 

Design and behavior of columns, two-way slab and slab-beam floor systems, and beam-column joints; strut-and-tie models.  

Learning Outcomes:

1. Design short and slender columns and describe their behavior.

2. Describe the distribution of moments in two-way slab and slab-beam floor systems.

3. Design two-way slab and slab-beam floor systems and describe their behavior.

4. Identify disturbed-regions (D-regions) where application of the strut-and-tie method is appropriate.

5. Design simple D-regions using the strut-and-tie method.

6. Design typical beam-column joints of building systems.
