CAE 5522 - Design of Precast Concrete Structures

3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
Course Description
This course presents the behavior and design of prestressed concrete members and structures. Topics include PCI and ACI design criteria; flexural member design; compression member design; beam-column member design; and connection design. (prereq: CAE 3511, CAE 3521) (quarter system prereq: AE 3211, AE 3231)
Course Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
  • Design prestressed concrete beams for deflection, flexure, development, shear, and torsion
  • Design prestressed concrete columns subjected to axial and flexural loads
  • Determine prestressed connection capacities
