Credit points: 15
Subject outline
Reinforced concrete structures are used extensively in the construction of a wide range of modern structures including bridges, low- and high-rise buildings, dams, reservoirs and wharves. Civil Engineers are expected to understand the behaviour of structural concrete and able to design structures using this composite material. This subject will develop your understanding of the behaviour and design of key elements in reinforced concrete structures. You'll be given numerous practical step-by-step examples to illustrate the design of reinforced concrete members. The design will follow the latest design criteria of the Australian concrete structures standard AS 3600.
