Course: Certificate Programme in Reinforced Concrete

Duration: 5 weeks – 20 hours

Description: This course includes teaching of reinforced concrete theory and design of columns by beams. General production process of reinforced concrete industry will be examined: moment-curvature relationship, plastic joint, and backward distribution. We will also look at the behavior and strength of elements under combined shear and moment, equilibrium torsion, compliance torsion, stapling, capacity design. The course will teach the repair / strengthening principles: column, beam, floor repair and improvement of building system. Lastly, seismic design principles, service design will be addressed.

Certification: A “Certificate of Participation” will be issued following completion
