Economical Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures: Module 1

 

These seminars will provide design professionals with ways to economically design and detail conventionally reinforced concrete members that comply with the provisions of the 2014 edition of ACI 318, Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete. Practical and time-proven methods and guidelines have been compiled from various sources to assist designers in the design and detailing processes of a reinforced concrete structure. Numerous details and design aids are provided that will help in achieving overall economy while reducing design/detailing time.

Presented in Session 1 are general guidelines to achieve economical reinforced concrete structures. Provided are recommendations on how to achieve economical formwork, reinforcement, and concrete. Also given are key characteristics and common uses for different one-way and two-way reinforced concrete floor systems.
