The art of design Design g is an analysis y of trial sections. The strength g of each trial section is compared with the expected load effect. The load effect on a section is determined using g structural analysis and mechanics of materials. The strength of a reinforced concrete section is g the concepts p taught g in this class. determined using

Grading
Exam Policy
Mid-term exam:
Only one A4 cheat-sheet is allowed. Necessary figures and tables will be provided with the exam forms.
Final exam:
Open book.
Homework Policy
Show all your assumptions and work details. Prepare neat sketches showing the reinforcement and dimensions. Marking g will consider p primarily y neatness of presentation, p , completeness and accuracy of results. You may get the HW points if you copy the solution from other students. However, you will have lost your chance in practicing the concepts through doing the HW. This will lead you to loosing points in the exams, which you could have gained if you did your HWs on your own. No late HWs will be accepted. Homework solutions will be posted on upinar immediately after the submission deadline.
Unit conversions

ACI Equations
The equations taken from the ACI code will be indicated throughout the slides by their section or equation number in the code provided in shading. Examples:
Ec = 4700 4 00 f c f r = 0.62 f c
Some of the original equations may have included the symbol = 1.0 for normal weight concrete and omitted in slides.
