Course Overview

What is reinforced concrete detailing?

Concrete is among the most crucial and highly used building materials with a permanent part in all the building structures. It might be considered this important because of its versatility, i.e., the ability to be formless and shapeless when fresh while taking the moulded structure of any shape according to requirements for different structural forms. With correct specifications in place and following the right procedures, it is also fire resistant. Concrete can be used in numerous building structures, from single-storey buildings to multi-storey buildings, retaining structures, containment of bridges, etc.

What is detailing in construction?

This Zoe course will give participants the required skills to effectively and correctly use such an important material in most buildings and structures.

Some of the case study examples that will be handled in this course include:

  1. Single-storey buildings and structures with isolating footing support
  2. Medium-rise framed building with a brace or no brace of shear wall The structures can be isolated supported, raft supported, or isolated footings supported
  3. Rigid frames that have the toughest resistance to wind loads
  4. Tall multi-storey frames and buildings
  5. Multi-storey buildings with basements and raft supported

The details covered in this training are the main items that are widely used in the concrete and construction industry, and therefore, there is a great need to understand the design of specially reinforced concrete.

This Zoe course will highlight the following:

  • The importance of earthquake analysis
  • Structural elements and various utilised frames
  • Case studies where there was the correct use of reinforced concrete
  • Section design for moments
  • Failures and durability comparison of concrete
  • Limit state design
  • Structural analysis of concrete structures
  • Torsion, shear, and bonds
  • Yield lines
  • Columns
  • Detailing and principal dimensions of structures
  • Design standards

This course will elaborate on the current international design standards and acceptable practices such as structural uses of a different form of concrete and ISO standards

Course Objectives

The main objectives of this training course will be to:

  • Equip the participants with the capabilities that are required to design different concrete structures while ensuring quality
  • Understand deeply how to design special concrete structures
  • Have a thorough and professional understanding of how detailing works
