ABK013 Prestressed Concrete Structure 6.0 ECTS credits | |
|
TIMEPERIOD: Q II LANGUAGE:English/Swedish EXAMINER Jan-Erik Jonasson Tekn dr PREREQUISITES Basic courses in Structural Engineering COURSE AIM To give students a) basic knowledge in the behaviour of prestressed concrete structures including short- and long-term analyses, b) to give training in analyses and design of prestressed concrete beams with respect to bending and shear, and c) to give basic knowledge of pre- and post-tensioning technology. CONTENTS Material properties: Short-term and long-term deformations, creep and shrinhage of concrete. Short-term deformations and relaxation in steel. Bending and shear; Choice of structural system. The design of prestressed concrete beams in the limit failure state as well as the short-term and the service limit states, respectively. Deformation of structures, and imposed actions of statically indetermined structures. Design Project: The design of a pretensioned beam and a post-tensioned slab, respectively.
