Course Description:	Introduction. Reinforced concrete as a structural material. Assumptions and specifications. Principles of ultimate strength theory. Simple and combined bending (Rectangular and T sections). Columns. Interaction diagrams. Reinforced concrete sections under shear and torsion. Slabs. Foundations. Introduction and design of reinforced concrete structures. Skeleton frames. Properties of reinforced concrete tall buildings. Reinforced concrete structures for long span. Examples of reinforced concrete structures.
Course Objectives:	Understanding the behavior of reinforced concrete structural elements, concepts of design and proportioning sections for strength and serviceability; background of Code specification requirements; strength design of beams, columns, and members under combined axial load and bending.
