Concrete Structures, advanced course (BYG660)

Content

Part (1): Analysis and design of Pre-stressed concrete structures (5 SP)

Party (2): The following topics (5SP);

• Design of deep beams and walls
• Design of concrete Shells
• Condition assessment and strengthening of existing structures
• Design of different slabs systems

The aim of this course is to provide students with a more advanced coverage of various topics related to the design of concrete structures. It targets those who wish to specialize in Structural Engineering and are planning a career in structural design. On successful completion of the course, students will be able to:

Knowledge

• Analyze, design and detail pre-stressed concrete members;
• Asses the condition and strengthen existing concrete structures
• Analyze, design and detail deep beams and walls;
• Analyze, design and details concrete shell elements.
• Analyze, design and detail reinforced concrete different slabs;

Skills

• Ability to analyze and design complex concrete structural elements in buildings and bridges.
• Assess and identify the performance of existing structures and plan solutions for their reinforcement

General competence

• Ability to work as a structural engineer with a higher level of competence
