MODULE-1

Introduction to working stress and limit State Design: Introduction to working stress method, Difference between Working stress and Limit State Method of design. Philosophy and principle of limit state design with assumptions. Partial Safety factors, Characteristic load and strength. Stress block parameters, concept of balanced section, under reinforced and over reinforced section. Limiting deflection, short term deflection, long term deflection, Calculation of deflection of singly reinforced beam only.

MODULE-2

Limit State Analysis of Beams: Analysis of singly reinforced, doubly reinforced and flanged beams for flexure and shear.

MODULE-3

Limit State Design of Beams:

Design of singly reinforced beams with check for shear, check for development length and other checks. Design of doubly reinforced beams and flanged sections without checks.

MODULE-4

Limit State Design of Slabs and Stairs: Introduction to one way and two way slabs, Design of Cantilever, simply supported and one way continuous slab. Design of two way slabs for different boundary conditions. Design of dog legged and open well staircases

MODULE-5

Limit State Deign of Columns and Footings: Analysis and design of short axially loaded RC column. Design of columns with uniaxial and biaxial moments, Design concepts of the footings. Design of Rectangular and square column footings with axial load.
