Rationale
Reinforced concrete construction are widely used for residential, commercial and industrial
structures. IS code has specified the use of Limit State Method (LSM) design philosophy for
design of structures. Prestressed Concrete structures are another class of structures used for bridge
girders, long span slabs etc. Civil engineers must have knowledge of designing and detailing of
RCC and PSC structures to make structures safe and serviceable during its life span. Also the
knowledge about response of structures during an earthquake is prerequisite of design engineers.
During previous semester students have studied design of basic elements by LSM. This course
coves complete design of G+3 structure in addition to advanced topics of design of water tank,
retaining wall. The course also contains PSC beam design and introduces Earthquake Resistant
Design of structures, drawing and detailing of structures.
Objectives
1. To explain the LSM design procedure of G+3 structure by proper application of IS code
clauses including loading calculation, analysis and design of individual elements.
2. To apply the concepts of LSM in the design of staircase, water tank and retaining wall.
3. To explain design of Prestressed Concrete members.
4. To introduce Earthquake Resistant Design method .
5. To explain drawing and detailing of structures.
6. To develop the concept of design using ready charts and curves for different elements of
structure.
Detailed Syllabus
Contribution to Outcomes
Theory Examination:-
1. Question paper will comprise of five questions. First question will carry 32 marks and
remaining four will carry 16 marks each. The first question will be compulsory. From
remaining four questions any three questions can be answered. Total four questions need
be attempted.
2. The first question will be based on design project from following. (any one out of given
two is to be answered)
a) Design of slab and continuous beam (max three span) or design of column from terrace
to footing.
b) Design of counterfort retaining wall
c) Design of overhead water tank including design of staging
Oral Examination: @
The oral examination accompanied by sketching will be based on entire syllabus and the term
work and site visit report.
Term Work:
The term work shall consist of a neatly written Design Report including detailed drawings on the
following topics:
1. Design report of (G+3) building using relevant IS codes.
2. Design report of counter fort retaining wall.
3. Design report of overhead water tank and framing using relevant IS codes by limit state method.
4. Report of one site visit to under construction building.
5. Assignments on remaining topics.
Design report and at least four A-1 (Full imperial) size drawings sheets for above three projects
shall be submitted as term work. All drawing work is to be done in pencil only. Design of building
project will be done using design aids and anyone of available software.
Distribution of Term Work Marks: The marks of term-work shall be judiciously awarded
depending upon its quality. The final certification and acceptance of the term-work warrants the
satisfactory and the appropriate completion of the assignments, properly compiled design report;
and the minimum passing marks to be obtained by the students.
The following weightage of marks shall be given for different components of the term work.
1. Design report: 15 marks
2. Assignments and site visit report: 05 marks
3. Attendance : 05 marks

Further, while giving weightage of marks on the attendance, following guidelines shall be resorted
to.
