This course has been discontinued.

 
 
This course takes a look at strength analysis of beams according to the ACI code. You will be introduced to two different design methods, working-stress design and strength design; with the focus of the course pertaining to strength design. We will take a look at the advantages of strength design and why it has moved to the preferred method. We will examine two methods used for calculating structural safety of a reinforced concrete structure. We will take a look at varying expressions associated with stress load and beam integrity. We will explain the different ACI codes and how they relate to beam strength.
