Educational Goals

The student acquires the ability to understand the problems and the advanced global behavior of buildings both in relation to horizontal and vertical loads. It acquires the ability to design and verify complex structures in reinforced concrete and prestressed reinforced concrete, even with the use of numerical methods, both in the limit state of operation and in the ultimate limit state. He studies some detailed phenomena for reinforced concrete structures such as viscosity, failure behavior and tie-strut modeling.
The students acquires the capability of the conceptual design of reinforced concrete structures. The students will be able to organize and design a real building under vertical and horizontal loads.
Designs a real building individually or in groups for both vertical and horizontal loads, producing detailed executive drawings and the design report.

Content

The course is aimed at students of Civil and Environmental Engineering and intends to deepen their knowledge on reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete structures, with particular reference to the structural organization of buildings to vertical and horizontal loads.

Extended Syllabus

1. Introduction to the course: Subject and scope of the course.
2. Construction types and structural conception: Construction systems, types of decks, prefabricated structures, organization of a building to vertical and horizontal loads.
3. Organization of the building to horizontal loads: effects of shrinkage and thermal deformation; wind load and seismic action; frame or partition construction systems; the distribution of seismic actions in an isostatic system of shear walls; the distribution of seismic actions in statically redundant systems; the floor diaphragm: curbs, pilasters and shear reinforcement; the organization of the diaphragm in the presence of shells.
4. Shell theory: the open shells: the flow of shear stresses; closed shells;
5. Detailing: beam to column joints; variable height beams; curved beams; knee beams; anchors and overlaps; plugs for construction joints or reinforcement.
6. Foundation: pad foundation with eccentric loads; Beam Theory of elastic foundation (Winkler Foundation); deep foundation for seismic loads
