JAWAHARLAL NEHRU TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY HYDERABAD

Course Objectives

To impart knowledge on the behavior and design on various reinforced concrete

structural elements.

Course Outcomes

The learner will be able to design the reinforced concrete elements like beams,

slabs and compression members.

UNIT - I

Basic Design Concepts: Behaviour in flexure, Design of singly reinforced rectangular sections, Design of doubly reinforced rectangular sections, Design of flanged beams, Design of shear, Design for Torsion, Limit state of Serviceability: Deflections of Reinforced concrete beams and slabs, short term deflection and long term deflection, estimation of crack width in RCC members, calculation of crack widths.

UNIT - II

Limit Analysis of R.C. Structures: Rotation of a plastic hinge, Redistribution of moments, moment rotation characteristics of RC member, I.S. code provisions, and applications for fixed and continuous beam. Yield line analysis for slabs: Upper bound and lower bound theorems – yield line criterion – Virtual work and equilibrium methods of analysis for square and circular slabs with simple and continuous end conditions.

UNIT - III
