| Learning Outcomes |
At the end of this course, the students;
- Analyze the elastic and inelastic behavior of reinforced concrete members using numerical methods, considering the material properties of concrete and reinforcing steel,
- Design for shear and flexure in complex reinforced concrete members and slabs using advanced methods such as strut-and-tie models and yield line theory,
- Apply performance-based design principles to evaluate the seismic performance of reinforced concrete structures and prepare earthquake-resistant structural detailing,
- Identify structural deficiencies in existing reinforced concrete structures and design appropriate repair and strengthening techniques.
