Design of Reinforced Concrete Components

Topics

• constituents of reinforced concrete, Portland Cement, hydration
• Material Properties -steel, concrete tensile and compressive response
• time-dependant properties: shrinkage, thermal and creep effects
• Behaviour of Axially- -axial load-axial deformation response
• Loaded Elements -short-term and long-term properties
• Members in Flexure -moment-curvature response, uncracked and cracked response
• rectangular stress blocks, linear-elastic simplifications
• Flexural Design of -limit-states design
• Beams -nominal flexural capacity, factored flexural resistance
• tension, compression and balanced failures
• doubly-reinforced sections, T-sections, one-way slabs
• cracking, durability considerations
• Deflections -effective moment of inertia
• Shear Design of -shear stresses in uncracked and cracked beams
• Beams -variable-angle truss model
• CSA A23.3 methods of shear design
• Bond and -development length, bond stresses, radial stresses, splitting
• Development of -hooked anchorages
• Reinforcement -development of reinforcement and design of bar cutoffs
• Short Columns -types of columns
