Building Structures – III Syllabus for VTU BE/B.Tech Architecture Engineering third sem complete syllabus covered here. This will help you understand complete curriculum along with details such as exam marks and duration. The details are as follows.
CONTACT PERIODS: 4(2 Lecture+2 Studio) per week
VIVA MARKS:75
PROGRESSIVE MARKS: 75
OBJECTIVES:
- To understand the fundamental principles and structural behaviour of concrete buildings in withstanding gravity, lateral (seismic and wind), and other environmental forces.
- To understand the mechanics of reinforced concrete, and the ability to design and proportion structural concrete members including slabs, beams, and columns.
OUTLINE:
- Two-way Concrete Floor and Roof Systems: General framing arrangement of beams, columns and slabs for 15m X 30m building by Two-way Slab-Beam, and design of short columns using SP 16: Design Aids for Reinforced Concrete to IS 456:1978.
- Two-way Concrete Flat Plate System: General framing arrangement of beams, columns and slabs for 15m X 30m building by Two-way solid Flat Plate system design, and design of Isolated footings using SP 16: Design Aids for Reinforced Concrete to IS 456:1978.
- Two-way Concrete Flat Slab System: General framing arrangement of beams, columns and slabs for 15m X 30m building by two-way solid Flat slab system, and formwork design and detailing.
- Two-way Concrete Waffle slab Systems: General framing arrangement of beams, columns and slabs for the 15m X 30m building by two-way (waffle) slab design.
- Reinforcement Design: Approximate calculation of Column, Beam and Slab reinforcement.
- Reinforcement detailing and placement: Preparation of working drawings showing the type, size and location of the reinforcement in a concrete structure.
- Design Review: Review of design of Column, Beam and Slab, total concrete volume, reinforcement tonnage and costing.
Note: Class work on loading calculation of each Concrete Structural System including structural system elements, slab, beam, column and footing, will be assessed during the Viva examination.
