CE8022 PS Syllabus
UNIT I INTRODUCTION
Need for prefabrication – Principles of prefabrication – Modular coordination – Standarization – Materials – Systems – Production – Transportation – Erection.
UNIT II PREFABRICATED COMPONENTS
Behaviour and types of structural components – Large panel systems – roof and floor slabs – Walls panels - Beams - Columns - Shear walls
UNIT III DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Design philosophy- Design of cross section based on efficiency of material used – Problems in design because of joint flexibility – Allowance for joint deformation - Demountable precast concrete systems.
UNIT IV JOINTS AND CONNECTIONS IN STRUCTURAL MEMBERS
Types of Joints – based on action of forces - compression joints - shear joints - tension joints - based on function - construction, contraction, expansion. Design of expansion joints - Dimensions and detailing - Types of sealants - Types of structural connections - Beam to Column - Column to Column - Beam to Beam - Column to foundation.
UNIT V DESIGN FOR ABNORMAL LOADS
Progressive collapse – Codal provisions – Equivalent design loads for considering abnormal effects such as earthquakes, cyclones, etc., - Importance of avoidance of progressive collapse.
