In this post we have posted some notes on CE8501 DESIGN OF REINFORCED CEMENT CONCRETE ELEMENTS of PROFESSIONAL CORE for ANNA UNIVERSITY AFFILIATED COLLEGES STUDENTS. 

Here We have listed the the notes whichever we could collect for CE8501 DESIGN OF REINFORCED CEMENT CONCRETE ELEMENTS subject, We think that it will be helpful for your exam preparation.

👉 To introduce the different types of philosophies related to design of basic structural elements such as slab, beam, column and footing which form part of any structural system with reference to Indian standard code of practice.

Objective of structural design-Steps in RCC Structural Design Process- Type of Loads on Structures and Load combinations- Code of practices and Specifications – Concept of Working Stress Method, Ultimate Load Design and Limit State Design Methods for RCC –Properties of Concrete and Reinforcing Steel – Analysis and Design of Singly reinforced Rectangular beams by working stress method – Limit State philosophy as detailed in IS code – Advantages of Limit State Method over other methods – Analysis and design of singly and doubly reinforced rectangular beams by Limit State Method.  

Analysis and design of Flanged beams for – Use of design aids for Flexure – Behaviour of RC members in Shear, Bond and Anchorage – Design requirements as per current code – Behaviour of rectangular RC beams in shear and torsion – Design of RC members for combined Bending, Shear and Torsion. 

Analysis and design of cantilever, one way simply supported and continuous slabs and supporting beams-Two way slab- Desingn of simply supported and continuous slabs using IS code coefficients- Types of Staircases – Design of dog-legged Staircase.  

Types of columns –Axially Loaded columns – Design of short Rectangula Square and circular columns –Design of Slender columns- Design for Uniaxial and Biaxial bending using Column Curves  

Concepts of Proportioning footings and foundations based on soil properties-Design of wall footing – Design of axially and eccentrically loaded Square, Rectangular pad and sloped footings – Design of Combined Rectangular footing for two columns only.  

Students will be able to

👉 Understand the various design methodologies for the design of RC elements.

👉 Know the analysis and design of flanged beams by limit state method and sign of beams for shear, bond and torsion.  

👉 design the various types of slabs and staircase by limit state method.

👉 Design columns for axial, uniaxial and biaxial eccentric loadings.

👉 Design of footing by limit state method.
