Mechanics and Design of Concrete Structures
The main objective of this note is to provide students with a rational basis of the design of reinforced concrete members and structures through advanced understanding of material and structural behavior. Topics covered includes: Strength and Deformation of Concrete under Various States of Stress, Failure Criteria, Concrete Plasticity, Fracture Mechanics Concepts, Fundamental Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Structural Systems and their Members, Basis for Design and Code Constraints, High-performance Concrete Materials and their use in Innovative Design Solutions, Slabs: Yield Line Theory, Behavior Models and Nonlinear Analysis, and Complex Systems: Bridge Structures, Concrete Shells, and Containments.
