Lecture

Design of Concrete Structures: Column Calculations

Description

This lecture covers the advanced design of concrete structures, focusing on the calculations for columns, beams, and connections. The instructor discusses seismic actions, overstrength considerations, and the use of post-tensioning tendons. Detailed calculations for seismic properties, shear resistance, and moment-curvature diagrams are presented. The lecture also includes the design of cantilever structures, reinforcement plans, and the analysis of rotational capacity. The students propose a new structure with reduced weight and optimized geometry, leading to a quick construction process.
