Syllabus

1.- 2. Dimensioning of the reinforced concrete slab within USL (ultimate limit state) – effect of the bending moment. 3.- 4. Dimensioning of the reinforced concrete beam (slab and girder floor) within USL (ultimate limit state) – effect of the bending moment. 5.- 6. Dimensioning of the reinforced concrete beam (slab and girder floor) within USL (ultimate limit state) – effect of the shearing force. 7.- 8. Structural requirement and reinforcement drawing of the designed members. 9.- 12.
