Concrete Floors Structural Design by Hand Calculations




Concrete Floors Structural Design by Hand Calculations

This course aims to deliver deep understanding of the principles that govern the design of reinforced concrete structural floors with practical approach in designing and detailing floors. The course puts theoretical knowledge into practise through 2 design examples of different floor systems outlining practical applications and day-to-day structural design simplifications in design and detailing.


In an era where technology and software is readily available to assist with everyday design, this is an essential course to structural engineering students, fresh graduates, and junior structural engineers looking to gain sound knowledge of structural floor design and compliance aspects to be able to make engineering decision when working with complex software programs.


I have put together my knowledge in designing structures to Australian Standard AS3600, Eurocodes EN1992-Part 2, and American Code ACI318 throughout the design examples in demonstrating how design principles stay the same with minor differences in safety factors and detailing requirements between the 3 compliance codes.


You do not need any prior preparations apart from fundamental knowledge of structural engineering. A detailed read and study of your design code is highly recommended so you can follow along with the design examples but not a must. Doing your own design calculations along the design examples and comparing the results and steps is highly recommended to train and develop your muscle memory in doing the calculations on your own.
