The main objective of the course is to proportion reinforcement and concrete mixtures, develop, the engineering student, the ability to analyze and design a reinforced concrete member subjected to different types of forms in a simple and logical manner using the basic principles of statics and some empirical formulas based on experimental results. It contains the following sections: introduction, analysis and design of beams under bending, analysis and design of beams under shear, development of reinforcement, analysis and design of short columns.
