AET 484 - Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures for Architectural Design

Course Cross-listed with ARC 584
3 credit(s)
Theory and applications of design concepts of reinforced concrete structures are studied. Flexural analysis and design of rectangular beams and T-beams, including serviceability requirements, are thoroughly studied. Behavior and design of one-way slabs are investigated and related to those of rectangular beams. Bond stresses, development lengths, and splicing requirements are also studied. Slenderness effects on the analysis and design of columns are investigated. Isolated spread footings as well as retaining walls are introduced. Laboratory includes design sessions as well as experiments. Three lecture hours, three lab hours. (AET 484 formerly 4 credits, Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures for Engineering Technology.)
Prerequisite(s): AET 364, MTH 233, and PHY 120; or permission of instructor, Program Director or Department Chair.
