| 101-0127-00L | Advanced Structural Concrete  | 3 credits | 2G | J. Mata Falcón, L. Gebhard, S. Häfliger | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Abstract | This course supplements the courses Structural Concrete I and II regarding the analysis and dimensioning of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. It focuses on limit analysis methods for girders, discs, slabs and shells, particularly regarding their applicability to the safety assessment of existing structures and their computer-aided implementation. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Learning objective | Within this course, the students are able to: - deepen their understanding of structural concrete models and apply them to general design problems, including the assessment of existing structures. - enhance their knowledge about the load-deformation response of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. - identify and assess the limits of applicability of limit analysis methods. - recognise the assumptions of models suitable for computer-aided structural design and use in a critical way structural concrete design software. - evaluate the long-term behaviour and the behaviour under fire conditions of concrete structures. - assess the behaviour of fibre reinforced concrete structures. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | Fundamentals (structural analysis, theorems of limit analysis, applicability of limit analysis methods); shear walls and girders (stress fields and truss models, deformation capacity, membrane elements with yield conditions and load-deformation behaviour, computer-aided structural design); slabs (equilibrium solutions, yield conditions, shear and punching shear); fibre reinforced concrete (mechanical behaviour, applications); long term effects; fire behaviour. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
