Course Overview
This comprehensive course covers the manual design of reinforced concrete structures as per Indian Standard codes. You'll learn the fundamental principles of RCC design, load calculations, and the design of various structural elements including slabs, beams, columns, and foundations.
Course Curriculum
1 Fundamentals & Load Flow
- Basics of Structural Design Philosophy (Limit State vs Working Stress)
- Understanding Load Transfer Mechanism (Slab → Beam → Column → Foundation → Soil)
- Role of IS 456:2000 and relevant IS codes in manual design
- Design principles and safety considerations
- Introduction to structural systems and their behavior
2 Load Calculations (IS Codes Based)
- Dead Load -- IS 875 Part 1
- Live Load -- IS 875 Part 2
- Wind Load -- IS 875 Part 3
- Seismic Load -- IS 1893
- Calculation of load intensities for slabs, beams, and columns
- Load Combinations as per IS 875 Part 5
- Practical examples and exercises
3 Slab Design (IS 456:2000)
- One-way slab design (flexural, shear check, reinforcement)
- Two-way slab design (flexural, shear check, reinforcement)
- Detailing rules: cover, spacing, anchorage length
- Check for deflection and crack width control
- Design examples for residential and commercial buildings
- Step-by-step calculation procedures
4 Beam Design (IS 456:2000)
- Flexural design of singly and doubly reinforced beams
- Shear design and detailing of stirrups
- Torsional design requirements
- Deflection & crack width checks
- Detailing rules for ductility (IS 13920 -- earthquake resistant detailing)
- Practical design examples with complete calculations
5 Column Design (IS 456:2000)
- Short column vs long column classification (slenderness checks)
- Axially loaded column design
- Uniaxial and biaxial bending column design (SP:16 design aids)
- Ductile detailing as per IS 13920
- Design examples for various loading conditions
- Use of design charts and interaction diagrams
6 Foundation Design (IS 456:2000 & IS 1904)
- Design of isolated footings (square & rectangular)
- Design of combined footings (overview)
- Check for soil pressure, punching shear & reinforcement
- Detailing of reinforcement in foundations
- Design examples for different soil conditions
- Practical considerations for foundation construction
7 Case Studies & Practice
- Manual design of a one-span RCC slab-beam system
- Manual design of G+1 framed structure (slab, beam, column, footing)
- Preparation of detailed reinforcement drawings
- Complete design project from start to finish
- Review of common design mistakes and how to avoid them
- Q&A session with industry experts
