CV3011 Reinforced Concrete Design

The objective is to equip the students with basic understanding of the behaviour of reinforced concrete structures and to develop the skill to analyze and design basic concrete members.

The students are expected to be able to understand the behaviour and load-carrying capacity of basic reinforced concrete members. They should be able to design beam, slab, column and footing, with confidence using existing codes of practice. It is also expected that the student would know the limitations of the design methods used.

• Basic design concepts: Basic layout of concrete structures, loading, basic material properties of concrete and reinforcing steel, limit state design philosophy.
• Analysis of structure: Load combinations and loading arrangements, simplification of framed structures, moment redistribution.
• Design and analysis of flexural members: Singly and doubly reinforced rectangular sections, flanged sections, shear, bond and anchorage, serviceability.
• Solid slabs: Slab actions, design of one-way spanning slabs, two-way spanning slabs.
• Columns: Classification, column behaviour, axially loaded rectangular column, uni-axially bent and bi-axially bent columns, column interaction diagram.
• Footing design: Design consideration, design of axially loaded pad footing, eccentrically loaded pad footing, eccentric footing.

This module is part of 4 courses leading to the "Specialist Certificate in Civil Infrastructure".

This Specialist Certificate will enable NTU’s Environmental Engineering graduates to apply for registration as Professional Engineers (Civil), if other requirements (4 years of relevant practical experience in engineering, FEE & PPEE examinations, interview) are also fulfilled.

Further details on Professional Engineer registration from PEB can be found at https://www.peb.gov.sg/Downloads/RegistrationasPE.pdf.
