Prerequisites
Structural Mechanics and Strength of Materials. Building Technology basic course. CAD Technology 2D. Soil Mechanics.Intended learning outcomes
The course intends to give basic knowledge of concrete- and geotechnical structures.After completing this course students should be able to
- describe the basic principles of reinforced concrete structures in regard to common load situations and environment classes
- design basic structures by using tables, formulas and handbooks and give an account of the calculations so they are easy to follow and understand
- perform calculations of reinforced concrete structures in ultimate limit state and in serviceability limit state and geotechnical structures in ultimate limit state
- design basic reinforced concrete structures subject to bending moment, shear force and normal force and calculate crack width and deflection
- perform design of basic geotechnical structures such as foundation pads and piles together with an overview of retaining walls
- use terminology, symbols and conventions adequately
- estimate calculations with reasonable approximations
- perform written reports together with reinforced drawings for two assignments
- perform one laboratory work with written report
Course content
Concrete structures: Concrete- and reinforcement materials.
