Structural Design of Reinforced Concrete: Engr. Dean Carlson Alejandrino, MSCE

This document provides an introduction to reinforced concrete design. It defines reinforced concrete as concrete combined with reinforcement steel, which has properties that complement each other, with concrete being strong in compression and steel being strong in tension. The objectives are to define reinforced concrete, understand its concept, and discuss structural system requirements. These requirements include structural analysis, strength, serviceability, durability, structural integrity, and economical design. Load paths, rebar equivalents, concrete cover, and strength reduction factors are also introduced.

 Define Reinforced Concrete
 Understand the Concept of Reinforced Concrete
 Discuss the Structural System Requirements for Reinforced Concrete
Design
INTRODUCTION

What is Concrete?
Concrete is a construction material formed by concretion or coalescence of particles such cementing
materials, mineral aggregates (Sand and Gravel) and adequate amount of water to cause the
cementing material to bind the entire mass.

What is Reinforcement Steel?


An alloy of iron with various amounts of carbon; embedded in concrete which has mechanical
properties that can be varied over a wide range.

CONCRETE = Good in Compression, Weak in Tension.


STEEL = Weak in Compression, Good in Tension.
INTRODUCTION

Plain Concrete + Reinforcement Steel = Reinforced Concrete


INTRODUCTION

Other Types of Concrete


1. Plain Cement Concrete (PCC) – without reinforcement or with
reinforcement less than the minimum specified for reinforced concrete.

2. Pre-stressed Concrete – structural concrete in which internal stresses


have been introduced to reduce potential tensile stresses.
INTRODUCTION

Structural System Requirements


1. Structural Analysis – Analytical procedure shall satisfy compatibility of deformation and
equilibrium of forces, (Sec. 404.5.1, NSCP 2015)

2. Strength – Design Strength of a member and its joints and connections, in terms of
moment, axial force, shear, torsion, and bearing, shall be taken as the nominal strength,
multiplied by the applicable strength reduction factor ϕ, and Structures and structural
members shall have design strength at all sections, greater than or equal to the required
strength U calculated for the factored loads and forces in such combinations as required by
this Section or the general building code. (Sec. 404.6.1, and Sec. 404.6.2. NSCP 2015)
INTRODUCTION

Structural System Requirements


Design Strength ≥ Required Strength

3. Serviceability – Evaluation of performance at service load conditions shall consider reactions,


moments, torsions, shears, and axial forces induced by prestressing, creep, shrinkage,
temperature change, axial deformation, restraint of attached structural members, and foundation
settlement. (Sec. 404.7.1, NSCP 2015)

4. Durability – Concrete mixtures shall be designed in accordance with the Concrete Materials and
Mixture Requirements and Reinforcement shall be protected from corrosion in accordance with
the Specified Concrete Cover, (Sec. 404.8.1 and 404.8.2, NSCP 2015)
INTRODUCTION

Structural System Requirements

5. Structural Integrity – Reinforcement and connections shall be detailed to tie the structure
together effectively and to improve overall structural integrity. (Sec. 404.10, NSCP 2015)

6. Economical – Determination of optimal design to efficiently minimize the cost of the structure.
INTRODUCTION

Structural System Requirements


7. Structural System Load Paths - The Structural System shall include (a) through (g) as
applicable;
a. Floor construction and roof construction, including one-way and two-way slabs;
b. Beams and joists;
c. Columns;
d. Walls;
e. Diaphragms;
f. Foundation;
g. Joints, connections, and anchors as required to transmit forces from one component to another.
INTRODUCTION

Rebar Equivalent
Diameter of a single bar equivalent to bundles bars to be used for spacing limitation and concrete
cover

=
3-16mm Φ Equivalent diameter, D

  x 3 = 192
INTRODUCTION
Concrete Protection for
Reinforcement
(Concrete Cover)
Non-prestressed cast-in-place concrete members shall
have specified concrete cover for reinforcement.
(Sec 420.6.1.3.1, NSCP 2015)
INTRODUCTION

Strength Reduction Factors, Φ


The design strength provided by a concrete member, its connection to other members, and its cross
sections, in terms of flexure, axial force, shear, and torsion shall be taken as the nominal strength
multiplied by a strength reduction factor, Φ having the following values;
Structural Stress Reduction Factor, Φ
Flexure without axial load 0.90
Axial tension, and axial tension with flexure 0.90
Axial compression – Spiral Reinforcement 0.75
Tie Reinforcement & other reinforced members 0.70
Shear and Torsion 0.85
Bearing on concrete 0.70
Post-tensioned anchorage zones 0.85
