CE25404:
Design of
Reinforced Cement Concrete Elements
Course
Objective
To
introduce the different design philosophy and thorough knowledge about
reinforced concrete structural elements such as beams, column, roof slab,
foundation and water tanks.
Design
Concepts, Beams: Design concepts - Concept of elastic
method, ultimate load method and limit state method - Advantages of limit state
method over other methods - Design of rectangular beam section by working
stress method - Limit state method of design of singly reinforced, doubly
reinforced and flanged beams - Use of design aids for flexure.
Activity:
Design assignment on singly and doubly reinforced beams.
Slabs,
Staircase: Analysis and design of cantilever, one
way simply supported and continuous slabs and supporting Beams-Two-way slab-
Design of simply supported and continuous slabs using IS code coefficients-
Types of Staircases - Design of dog-legged Staircase.
Activity:
Problem-based learning on slab and staircase design.
Columns: Types of columns –Axially Loaded, Uni axial and Bi axial bending columns - Design of short rectangular axial, Uni-axial and Bi-axial bending columns.
Activity:
Bar bending schedule using Excel.
Footings
and Foundations: Concepts of Proportioning footings -
Design of axially loaded footing- Wall footings- Combined footings
(Rectangular, Circular and Trapezoidal)- Strap footing- Design principles of
Raft footing.
Activity:
Quiz on footing design concepts.
Retaining
Structures: Types of retaining walls – Applications-
Structural behaviour of retaining walls- Stability requirements of retaining
wall - Design of Cantilever retaining wall and Counterfort retaining wall –
detailing of reinforcement.
Activity:
Model making of retaining wall systems.
