Course overview

This course equips students with advance knowledge of reinforced concrete design including the design of more complex members and alternative materials using a range of design approaches.

Course learning outcomes

  • Describe and model the material performance of fibre reinforced polymer bars and fibre reinforced concrete
  • Analyse and design simple and complex members including (those constructed from traditional reinforced concrete and those with fibre reinforcement)
  • Describe the post peak behaviour of reinforced concrete and apply the principles of confinement and moment redistribution to the design of elements
  • Apply the principles of strut and tie modelling to the design of non-flexural elements
