Reinforced Concrete I: Essentials and Derivations




Reinforced Concrete I: Essentials and Derivations

Civil Engineering Courses by Hamid El Darwich:

Learn the language of Reinforced Concrete; You probably have taken Statics and Mechanics of Materials, so this short course will introduce you to the essential concepts that you should know before starting design of concrete elements. 


What to expect from this course:

After completion of this course, you are expected to be able to know the derivation of the variables used in reinforced concrete design such as reinforcement ratio, nominal resistivity of concrete, etc.

In addition, this course guides you through the derivation of these variables. You will also be able to understand the basis of dimensioning of RC elements. 


What are exactly the points covered in this course:

This course focuses on the following concepts:

  • Concrete material and its elements
  • Why does concrete need reinforcement 
  • Why steel is used as reinforcing material 
  • Derivation of RC variables such as effective depth, nominal capacity, etc.
  • Safety factors used in design (most used combination)
  • Assumption used in design 

Students completing the course will have basic knowledge to start design lectures. The course is easy to follow; all of the resources needed are posted in the course content. Other instructors directly start with the design problems making them hard to be understood, this course is your  "Starters".
