This course is concerned with the design,
applications and code specifications used in structural reinforced concrete
members subjected to flexure (beams,
girders, joists, lintels, girts, etc.), tension, and compression members (columns), combined stressed members (beam-columns), beam-column connections
using the Elastic Limit Method, also
known as the Alternate Stress Design (ASD) or Working Stress Design (WSD), and
the Plastic Limit Method or the
Ultimate Strength Design (USD). Applications and specifications as applied to
buildings, bridges, and other reinforced concrete structures are also given
emphasis. A thorough knowledge and proficiency in Structural Theory is
imperative.
