Behavior and Design of Concrete Members
Description
This course help students understand the fundamental behaviour of reinforced concrete as well as the processes used in reinforced concrete design according to CSA A23.3:19 (Design of Concrete Structures), including strength and behaviour of simple reinforced concrete members, relation between results of research and current design specifications, material properties, as well as members subjected to flexure, axial compression, combined flexure and axial load, combined flexure and shear, torsion.Learning Outcomes
Use first principle approaches to develop moment-curvature responses for flexural members and use these responses to evaluate deflectionsUse provisions and understand some limitations of CSA A23.3 for the flexural, shear, axial, and torsion design of concrete elements
Use strut-and-tie models to design common disturbed regions in concrete elements
Link research outcomes to design standards with attention to CSA A23.3
