Knowledge of the principles of static solution of concrete structures of building construction and civil engineering.
Understanding to the behaviour of flat concrete structures.
Knowledge of designing framed reinforced concrete structures.
Knowledge of designing simple foundation structures.
Designing slab and wall concrete structures.

Co-requisites

do not required

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations. Education runs in the forms of lectures and trainings. Character of the lectures is based on definition of basic principles, problems and methodology. In the trainings the main subject matters are trained on individually defined projects (examples).

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

To gain the credit, the students should calculate technical tasks defined individually. The students are obliged to consult the task continuously in the given terms and submit it to the fixed date. The presences in training lessons are checked. An exam consists both of the written part and the theoretical part. To pass the exam successfully, both parts should be accomplished.

Course curriculum

5. Two-way slabs edge supported.
6. Two-way slabs locally supported.
7. Ribbed and cassette slabs.
8. Wall beams.
9. Precast structures – skeletons, halls, flat and space elements.
10. Reinforced concrete tanks. Retaining walls.
11. Prestressed structures – basic theory, materials, types, method of prestressing insertion into concrete.
12. Design of structures from impermeable concrete – tanks, water reservoirs and channels.
13. Principles of masonry structures design. Manufacturing and control of concrete structures.
