Design of Structure structures is a course included in the third year of the first level degree in civil engineering. The course aims at providing the students with the fundamental knowledge and tools to design reinforced concrete frame structures, including stairs and floors and assess their safety level with respect to Ultimate and Serviceability Limit States.
At the end of the course, the students will be able to: 1) perform the structural analysis of reinforced concrete frame structures also by beans of computational tools; 2) identify the load patterns to assume in calculations and checks; 3) design and assess the performance of reinforced concrete frame structures including floors and stairs, with respect to ultimate and serviceability limit states, and 4) produce design drawings.

materiale didattico
Modeling of the structures for the evaluation of forces and for the design of structural members: design of decks (typologies, dimensioning criteria, loads evaluation, design of reinforcement, verifications), design of beams and columns (typologies, dimensioning criteria, loads evaluation, design of staircase, design of reinforcement), design of foundations (plinths and ground beams). Validation of the structural analysis. Graphical representation of a structural design.

Programma
Methods for the assessment of the structural safety and for the design of the structures (allowable stresses, load and resistance factor design methods). The current design philosophy for reinforced concrete structures: serviceability limit states (cracking and deformation control) and ultimate limit states (shear and bending moment, axial load and bending moment, shear, lateral instability). The structural organism and preliminary design choices for reinforced concrete frame structures.Modeling of the structures for the evaluation of forces and for the design of structural members: design of decks (typologies, dimensioning criteria, loads evaluation, design of reinforcement, verifications), design of beams and columns (typologies, dimensioning criteria, loads evaluation, design of staircase, design of reinforcement), design of foundations (plinths and ground beams).

LecturesModalità Valutazione
The student will participate, during the course, to classroom exercises on the design of a reinforced concrete building. The exam consists of an oral test on the topics covered during the lectures and a discussion on the design work. To access the exam the student must have completed and provided the design work to the teacher a week before the oral test date.
