Introduction: Principles of design of reinforced concrete members - Working stress and Limit State method
of design.
Working stress method of design: Basic concepts and IS code provisions for design against bending
moment and shear forces - Balanced, under reinforced and over-reinforced beam/ slab sections; design of
singly and doubly reinforced sections.
Limit state method of design: Basic concepts and IS code provisions (IS:456) for design against bending
moment and shear forces; concepts of bond stress and development length; Use of ‘design aids for
reinforced concrete’ (SP:16).
Analysis, design and detailing of singly reinforced rectangular, ‘T’, ‘L’ and doubly reinforced beam
sections.
Design and detailing of one-way and two-way slab panels as per IS code provisions.
Design and detailing of continuous beams and slabs as per IS code provisions.
Staircases: Types; Design and detailing of reinforced concrete doglegged staircase.
Design and detailing of reinforced concrete short columns of rectangular and circular cross-sections under
axial load,
Shallow foundations: Types; Design and detailing of reinforced concrete isolated square and rectangular
footing for columns as per IS code provisions.
