ST4008 Design of Steel – Concrete Composite Structures Syllabus:

ST4008 Design of Steel – Concrete Composite Structures Syllabus – Anna University PG Syllabus Regulation 2021

OBJECTIVE:

 To develop an understanding of the behaviour and design concrete composite elements and structures.

UNIT I INTRODUCTION

Introduction to steel – concrete composite construction – Codes – Composite action –Serviceability and Construction issues in design.

UNIT II DESIGN OF COMPOSITE MEMBERS

Design of composite beams, slabs, columns, beam – columns – Design of composite trusses.

UNIT III DESIGN OF CONNECTIONS

Shear connectors – Types – Design of connections in composite structures – Design of shear connectors – Partial shear interaction.

UNIT IV COMPOSITE BOX GIRDER BRIDGES

Introduction –Design concepts of box girder bridges and corrugated web girder bridges

UNIT V CASE STUDIES

Case studies on steel – concrete composite construction in buildings – seismic behaviour of composite structures.

OUTCOMES:

On completion of the course, the student is expected to be able to
CO1 Explain composite action
CO2 Design composite elements
CO3 Design connections
CO4 Explain the concept of design of composite box girder bridges
CO5 Study and evaluate case studies
