The course will be delivered on the web using Zoom.

Reinforced concrete is the cornerstone of the construction industry. Most undergraduate courses in reinforced concrete design focus on essential, basic structural elements, including the ultimate limit state design of conventional beams, one-way and two-way slabs, and short columns in buildings, as well as a fundamental understanding of the serviceability limit states related to deflection and cracking. However, undergraduate civil engineering curricula do not cover many practical, highly useful designs for typical reinforced concrete structural elements. This series of CPD courses on reinforced concrete design is designed to bridge academia and industry, providing practicing engineers with in-depth knowledge of day-to-day reinforced concrete design.

This half-day Web-CPD course is focused on the design of beam-column joints. It explores the fundamental behavior and technical principles governing their design, providing clear interpretations and practical insights. Design examples are presented to illustrate detailed procedures for designing these critical reinforced-concrete structural elements.
