This course illustrate the definitions and design theories, analysis and design of structural elements for bending, shear force and axial force. Application on design of structural elements: slabs, beams and short columns. Development of reinforcing steel. Design for Torsion.

i design reinforced concrete sections and elements for flexure, shear and torsion

ii  Establish development and cut of bars for reinforcing flexural steel and do steel reinforcement details.

iii  design of short columns for axial force and bending moments (uniaxial).

iv  Ability to effectively participate in team work

v  Ability to write a technical report that summarizes the analysis and design results for a complex RC design problem
