Tutor:
Martin Benýšek, Radek Hájek, Radek Štefan
Supervisor:
Department of Concrete and Masonry Structures
Synopsis:

The course is focused on fire resistance of concrete and masonry structures: concrete and concrete structures exposed to fire, design rules, thermal analysis, loads, design principles, design methods, material properties of concrete and steel reinforcement at high temperatures, fire design of masonry structures. The course is partially focused also on selected parts of advanced structural design of concrete structures at normal temperatures: serviceability limit states, pre-stressed concrete, precast and composite structures.

Requirements:

required: 133BZKQ

recommended: basic knowledge in structural mechanics and structural design

Syllabus of lectures:

1) Introduction to fire safety of buildings. Concrete and masonry structures exposed to fire.

2) Software to fire design of concrete and masonry structures. Thermal analysis of structures.

3) Fire design of concrete and masonry structures – design philosophies.

4) Material properties of concrete and steel reinforcement at high temperatures.

5) Fire design using tabulated data – beams, slabs, columns, walls.

6) Simplified calculation methods – 500°C isotherm method, zone method, columns, simplified calculation method for beams and slabs, calculation methods for shear and torsion, advanced calculation methods.

7) Fire design of high strength concrete members. Concrete structures after fire. Fire design of masonry structures.

8) Serviceability limit states.

9) Pre-stressed concrete structures.

10) Design of pre-stressed reinforcement and its eccentricity.

11) Losses in Prestressed Concrete.

12) Precast concrete structures.

13) Composite structures (concrete-concrete).

Study Objective:

The aim of the course is to obtain basic knowledge about fire resistance of concrete and masonry structures: concrete and concrete structures exposed to fire, design rules, thermal analysis, loads, design principles, design methods, material properties of concrete and steel reinforcement at high temperatures, fire design of masonry structures. The aim of the course is also deepen the knowledge in the selected parts of advanced structural design of concrete structures at normal temperatures: serviceability limit states, pre-stressed concrete, precast and composite structures.
