Course curriculum

1. Principle, behaviour and sorting of concrete members. Influence of concrete components on properties of concrete. Structural properties of concrete (strength, elasticity, deformability) – influencing factors.
2. Types of concrete and reinforcement – their interaction. Theory of concrete structures calculation – load, requirements, action conditions, durability. Ultimate limit states – principle of calculation.
3. Bended members. Dimensioning of sections stressed by bending moment – general and simple method.
4. Dimensioning of sections stressed by bending moment – rectangular sections, special sections.
5. Dimensioning of sections stressed by bending moment – common sections. Sections stressed by bending moment in incline plane.
6. Dimensioning of sections stressed by shearing force.
7. Arrangement of reinforcement in a girder – structural principles. Reinforcement of bended structural members.
8. Principles of design and reinforcing of simple structural concrete members – plate girders, beams, girders, lintels and cantilever structures.
9. Principles of design and reinforcing – stairs.
10. Design of members stressed by bending moment according to limit state of serviceability.
11. Dimensioning of sections stressed by bending moment and normal force (principle of solution, interactive diagram, impact of slenderness, compresssioned members).
12. Dimensioning of sections stressed by combination of axial force and bending moments (tensioned members, transversal deflection with axial force, serviceability, principles of columns reinforcing).
13. Principles of sections dimensioning for different stresses (torsion, local stress, etc). Dimensioning of members from plain and low reinforced concrete. Volume changes of concrete (creep, shrinkage, temperature changes).
