Learning Outcomes of the Curricular Unit:
The subject of Reinforced Concrete II, following and in addition to the knowledge acquired in Reinforced Concrete I, aims to learn the organic functioning of several pieces of reinforced concrete and to be able to verify the safety and dimension structural elements according to European standards (Eurocodes) , obtaining the following basic skills: • Analyze and design reinforced concrete structures subject to bending, shear, torsion, single or combined, in linear elastic phase and in relation to ELU and ELS. • Know and know how to apply the constructive dispositions. • Scale drawing representation of the recommended solution to be applied on site, taking into account the cost/performance ratio. • Analyse, dimension and detail reinforced concrete slabs; • Analyse, dimension and detail surface foundations.
Syllabus:
Chapter 1. Analyzing the states of use limits States cracking limits. Limit state of deformation: method of global coefficients in the estimation of deformation. Chapter 2. Analysis and design of ported structures Redistribution of effort. Simplified method of analysis for vertical actions (ACI coefficients method). Second order effects on pillars based on nominal curvature. Chapter 3. Analysis and design of slabs Analysis and design of lightened slabs. Chapter 4. Direct and indirect foundations in reinforced concrete. Surface foundations in rigid.
Demonstration of the Syllabus Coherence with the Curricular Unit's Objectives:
At the end of the curricular unit the student should have the following basic skills: to analyze and size reinforced concrete structures subjected to flexural, transverse, twist, simple or combined, in elastic linear phase and in relation to ELU and ELS; Know and know how to apply the constructive provisions; Scale representation of the recommended solution to be applied on site, taking into account the cost / performance ratio; Analyze, dimension and detail concrete slabs; Analyze, size and detail surface foundations.
Teaching Methodologies (Including Evaluation):
The teaching-learning methodology applied in this curricular unit will be expository, descriptive and demonstrative. After the theoretical exposition of the contents, there is the resolution of practical exercises and presentation of examples of projects of direct application. It is intended that students internalize the subjects taught through this aspect of calculation and practical application of the project. The evaluation method comprises the components: • Assessment by two written tests (85%) • Practical work outside the classroom (15%).
Demonstration of the Coherence between the Teaching Methodologies and the Learning Outcomes:
Objectives: to acquire technical capacity of dimensioning and verification of safety of structures applying the regulations; Reading and representation of structural solutions for a correct execution on site; Critical spirit in the search for the most economic and adequate solution.
