Course Name: CE7120 : Advanced Topics in Structural Concrete

Description: Behaviour of Concrete and Steel: Constitutive models for concrete under uniaxial and multiaxial state of stress? failure theories for concrete? Creep, shrinkage and temperature effects in concrete? stress-strain relationship for steel reinforcing bars. Behaviour of Members under Axial Load: Axial load versus deformation behaviour? Effect of confining the concrete? effect of tension stiffening of concrete. Behaviour of Members under Flexure: BeamsMoment versus curvature behaviour, ductility, rotation of plastic hinges, development of hinge properties? Slabs-Elastic analysis, Limit analysis (yield line method, strip method). Behaviour of Members under Combined Flexure and Axial Load: Moment versus curvature behaviour under axial load. Behaviour of Members under Shear: BeamsTruss mechanism, shear deformation, Interaction of flexure and shear. Shear wallsStresses and strains in membrane elements, Truss models (modified compression field theory, distributed field theory, Softened truss model, softened membrane mod
