Design
of Reinforced Concrete Beams Per ACI 318.05
Robert
Duane Nickols, P.E.
Overview
This course is of
particular interest of anybody involved with concrete structures like Civil or
Structural Engineers. Very little knowledge of previous ACI codes is needed.
This course covers the design of rectangular singularly reinforced concrete
beams. There will be many references to ACI 318-05 but you do not need a copy of
the code. Several design aids are included in the course. Three examples are
worked out in detail. Many terms related to reinforced concrete beams are
covered.
The student must take
a quiz consisting of ten (10) questions in order to receive PDH credit.
