Reinforced Concrete Design
The art of design
Design is an analysis of trial sections. The strength
of each trial section is compared with the expected
load effect.
The load effect on a section is determined using
structural analysis and mechanics of materials.
The strength of a reinforced concrete section is

Zero tolerance will be practiced.
No talking with other students is allowed.
Raise your hand before answering or asking questions.
Leaving during class is not allowed (especially for
answering the cell-phone) unless a previous permission is
granted.

Violation of discipline rules may have you dismissed from
class and jeopardize your participation points. ١٣

Policyy towards missed classes
Any collectively missed class MUST be made up.
A collectively missed class will be made up either on a
Thursdayy or duringg the discussion lecture.
An absence from a lecture will loose you attendance points,
and the lecture will not be repeated for you.

Units used in class
In all equations, the input and output units are as follows:
Distance (L,b,d,h): mm
Area (Ac,A As): mm2
Ag,A
Volume (V): mm3
Force (P,V,N)): N
Moment (M): N.mm
Stress (fy, fc’): N/mm2 = MPa = 106 N/m2
Pressure (qs): N/mm2
Distributed load per unit length (wu): N/mm
Di t ib t d load
Distributed it area (qu):
l d per unit N/mm2

Unit conversions
m = 102 cm = 103 mm
m2 = 104 cm2 = 106 mm2
m3 = 106 cm3 = 109 mm3
kN = 103 N
kN.m = 106 N.mm
kN/m2 = 10-3 N/mm2
kN/m3 = 10-6 N/mm3
You MUST specify the unit of each result you obtain

ACI Equations
q
The equations taken from the ACI code will be indicated throughout the
slides by their section or equation number in the code provided in
shading.
Examples:
Ec = 4700 f c′ ACI 8.5.1
f r = 0.62 f c′ ACI Eq. 9-10
Some of the original equations may have included the symbol λ = 1.0
