Objetivos
The main objective of the course is that the students achieve the ability to design reinforced concrete structures, such as beams, columns and slabs. The students have to be able to understand the concepts related to safety formats
applied to materials and actions, required to the correct design of every structure.
Resultados de aprendizagem e competências
The students have to understand all the procedures associated to ultimate limit states and serviceability limits of beams, columns and slabs' design and detailing.
Modo de trabalho
Presencial
Pré-requisitos (conhecimentos prévios) e co-requisitos (conhecimentos simultâneos)
Students should demonstrate skills related to the analysis of isostatic structures and material resistance.
Programa
Chapter 1 - 7,0 weeks

Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem
Topics are presented, with emphasis on the most relevant aspects, followed by the resolution, by students, of practical cases.
In order to consolidate their learning, students are submitted to two group projects: design of a beam and a panel of slabs.
At the end of the semester, the test of a reinforced concrete beam is carried out on laboratory.
The teacher supports the student in the development of different tasks throughout the semester.
The assessment consists of several activities carried out throughout the semester, corresponding to the assessment
