This study evaluates design provisions for one-way solid concrete slabs in the Saudi Building Code (SBC-304). The current code provisions for minimum slab thickness based on span-to-depth ratio do not consider parameters like live load, concrete strength, and steel yield strength. A parametric study is conducted considering these parameters to determine their effect on slab deflection. The results show that the current code provisions are very conservative and do not predict deflections accurately. Modified span-to-depth ratio relations are proposed based on the parametric study results, which include the effect of all parameters and allow more efficient slab designs while still controlling deflections.
Parametric Study of RCC, Steel and Composite Structures Under Blast LoadingIRJET Journal
1) The document presents a parametric study comparing the behavior of reinforced concrete (RCC), steel, and composite low-rise (G+2) and high-rise (G+10) buildings under blast loading conditions.
2) The maximum storey displacements of the structures are analyzed for different blast load scenarios varying the charge size (0.1 and 0.3 tonnes) and standoff distance (0.01 and 0.03km).
3) The results show that steel plate shear walls are more effective than RCC shear walls at reducing maximum displacements, with SPSWs reducing displacements by up to 98% compared to non-shear wall structures. Composite structures also perform
IRJET- Experimental Investigation on RCC Long Hollow Circular Columns with FR...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes an experimental investigation on reinforcing concrete columns with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) jacketing. Circular reinforced concrete columns with both solid and hollow cross-sections were tested under axial compression loads. The columns were either conventionally reinforced or confined with external FRP wrapping. Test results showed that FRP-confined hollow columns exhibited a 35% increase in ultimate load capacity compared to unconfined hollow columns. FRP jacketing also improved ductility by reducing axial and lateral deformations at high loads. The study demonstrates that FRP confinement enhances the strength and deformation capacity of hollow reinforced concrete columns.

This chapter discusses truss bridges. It begins by defining a truss as a triangulated assembly of straight members that can be used to replace girders. The main advantages of truss bridges are that primary member forces are axial loads and the open web system allows for greater depth.
The chapter then describes the typical components of a through truss bridge and the most common truss forms including Pratt, Warren, curved chord, subdivided, and K-trusses. Design considerations like truss depth, economic spans, cross section shapes, and wind bracing are covered. The chapter concludes with sections on determining member forces, design principles, and specific design procedures.

1. Box girder bridges have two key advantages over plate girder bridges: they possess torsional stiffness and can have much wider flanges.
2. For medium span bridges between 45-100 meters, box girder bridges offer an attractive form of construction as they maintain simplicity while allowing larger span-to-depth ratios compared to plate girders.
3. Advances in welding and cutting techniques have expanded the structural possibilities for box girders, allowing for more economical designs of large welded units.
Ch5 Plate Girder Bridges (Steel Bridges تصميم الكباري المعدنية & Prof. Dr. Me...Hossam Shafiq II
Plate girders are commonly used as main girders for short and medium span bridges. They are fabricated by welding together steel plates to form an I-shape cross-section, unlike hot-rolled I-beams. Plate girders offer more design flexibility than rolled sections as the plates can be optimized for strength and economy. However, their thin plates are more susceptible to various buckling modes which control the design. Buckling considerations of the compression flange, web in shear and bending must be evaluated to determine the plate girder's load capacity.

The document discusses reinforced concrete continuity and analysis methods for continuous beams and one-way slabs. It describes how steel reinforcement must extend through members to provide structural continuity. The ACI/SBC coefficient method of analysis is summarized, which uses coefficient tables to determine maximum shear forces and bending moments for continuous beams and one-way slabs under various loading conditions in a simplified manner compared to elastic analysis.

This document discusses bond and development length in reinforced concrete. It defines bond as the adhesion between concrete and steel reinforcement, which is necessary to develop their composite action. Bond is achieved through chemical adhesion, friction from deformed bar ribs, and bearing. Development length refers to the minimum embedment length of a reinforcement bar needed to develop its yield strength by bonding to the surrounding concrete. The development length depends on factors like bar size, concrete strength, bar location, and transverse reinforcement. It also provides equations from design codes to calculate the development length for tension bars, compression bars, bundled bars, and welded wire fabric. Hooked bars can be used when full development length is not available, and the document discusses requirements for standard hook geome

1) T-beams are commonly used structural elements that can take two forms: isolated precast T-beams or T-beams formed by the interaction of slabs and beams in buildings.
2) The analysis and design of T-beams considers the effective flange width provided by slab interaction or the dimensions of an isolated precast flange.
3) Two methods are used to analyze T-beams: assuming the stress block is in the flange and using rectangular beam theory, or using a decomposition method if the stress block extends into the web.

Particle Swarm Optimization–Long Short-Term Memory based Channel Estimation with Hybrid Beam Forming Power Transfer in WSN-IoT Applications
Authors
Reginald Jude Sixtus J and Tamilarasi Muthu, Puducherry Technological University, India
Abstract
Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) helps to overcome various difficulties in future technology wireless communications. NOMA, when utilized with millimeter wave multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, channel estimation becomes extremely difficult. For reaping the benefits of the NOMA and mm-Wave combination, effective channel estimation is required. In this paper, we propose an enhanced particle swarm optimization based long short-term memory estimator network (PSOLSTMEstNet), which is a neural network model that can be employed to forecast the bandwidth required in the mm-Wave MIMO network. The prime advantage of the LSTM is that it has the capability of dynamically adapting to the functioning pattern of fluctuating channel state. The LSTM stage with adaptive coding and modulation enhances the BER.PSO algorithm is employed to optimize input weights of LSTM network. The modified algorithm splits the power by channel condition of every single user. Participants will be first sorted into distinct groups depending upon respective channel conditions, using a hybrid beamforming approach. The network characteristics are fine-estimated using PSO-LSTMEstNet after a rough approximation of channels parameters derived from the received data.

The Network on Chip (NoC) has emerged as an effective
solution for intercommunication infrastructure within System on
Chip (SoC) designs, overcoming the limitations of traditional
methods that face significant bottlenecks. However, the complexity
of NoC design presents numerous challenges related to
performance metrics such as scalability, latency, power
consumption, and signal integrity. This project addresses the
issues within the router's memory unit and proposes an enhanced
memory structure. To achieve efficient data transfer, FIFO buffers
are implemented in distributed RAM and virtual channels for
FPGA-based NoC. The project introduces advanced FIFO-based
memory units within the NoC router, assessing their performance
in a Bi-directional NoC (Bi-NoC) configuration. The primary
objective is to reduce the router's workload while enhancing the
FIFO internal structure. To further improve data transfer speed,
a Bi-NoC with a self-configurable intercommunication channel is
suggested. Simulation and synthesis results demonstrate
guaranteed throughput, predictable latency, and equitable
network access, showing significant improvement over previous
designs

Concrete and Reinforced Concrete
Concrete has high compressive strength and low
tensile strength.
Reinforced concrete is a combination of concrete
and steel. The reinforcing steel is used to resist
tension.
Reinforcing steel can also be used to resist
compression (columns).

Disadvantages of Reinforced Concrete
Forms are required to hold the concrete until it
hardens. Formwork is expensive.
Heavy. Concrete has relatively low strength when
compared to its unit weight.
High unit weight translates into large dead load.
Concrete members are relatively large, which
increases structural dimensions. Deep beams lead
to larger story heights and taller buildings.
Quality control is difficult.

Building Codes
• All reinforced concrete structures should conform to
certain minimum specifications and requirements,
imposed by building codes, with regard to design and
construction.
• Each nation, or group of nations, must have its own
code for reinforced concrete
• In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Saudi Building Code
(SBC) 304 was issued in 2007.
• SBC 304 was inspired from the American ACI 318 code

Reinforced Concrete Design-I
Limit States and
Design Philosophy
Limit States
• Limit state: A condition at which a structure or some
part of a structure ceases to perform its intended
function.
• When a structure or part of it becomes unfit for its
intended use, it is said to have reached a limit state
• Violation of a limit state does not necessarily mean
that the structure has failed or collapsed. It implies
failure in the sense that a clearly defined limit state
of structural usefulness has been exceeded.
• There are three groups of limit states
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 12
7. 24/2/2013
CE370 Prof. A.harif 7
Limit States
• There three groups of limit states:
1. Ultimate Limit States
2. Serviceability Limit States
3. Special Limit States
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 13
1 - Ultimate Limit States (ULS )
• Ultimate limit states (ULS) concern structural
safety against total or partial structural
collapse.
• Since this may lead to loss of life and major
financial losses, ULS must have a very low
probability of occurrence.
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 14
8. 24/2/2013
CE370 Prof. A.harif 8
1 - Ultimate Limit States (ULS )
Major Ultimate States are:
a) Loss of equilibrium (total or partial)
b) Rupture (total or partial)
c) Progressive collapse (successive member
failures, e.g. during explosions)
d) Formation of a plastic mechanism (yielding of
steel)
e) Instability (such as local or global buckling)
f) Fatigue (failure caused by cyclic loading)
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 15
2 - Serviceability Limit States
• Serviceability limits state (SLS) refer to the
performance of structures under normal service
loads, with use and occupancy of structures.
• There is less risk of loss of life than in ULS. A
higher probability of occurrence is tolerated.
• To satisfy serviceability limit state, deflections,
cracking and vibration must not be excessive.
• Violation of serviceability limit state may disrupt
the use of structures but does not usually involve
collapse.
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 16
9. 24/2/2013
CE370 Prof. A.harif 9
3 - Special Limit States
• Special limit states refer to structural damage
or failure caused by abnormal or exceptional
loadings:
Extreme earthquakes
Fire, explosions, vehicular collisions
Effects of corrosion and deterioration
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 17
Limit State Design
• Serviceability limit state is usually more tolerated
than ultimate limit state as it is less dangerous
(no loss of life risk)
• Design is generally performed using the ultimate
limit state, and then serviceability limit state is
checked (deflections, cracks, vibrations)
• Exceptions: Water and liquid containers (no
cracking allowed, service limit state is more
important)
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 18
10. 24/2/2013
CE370 Prof. A.harif 10
Design Philosophy
• The object of reinforced concrete design is to
achieve a structure that will result in a safe and
economical solution.
• The structure resistance must always exceed the
applied loads effects:
• Resistance ≥ Load effects
• Variability in structure resistance and in applied
loads must be considered
• For safety, design loads must be increased and
design strength must be reduced
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 19
Design Philosophy
• Resistance ≥ Load effects
• For safety, design loads must be increased and
design strength must be reduced
• fRn ≥ α1L1 + α2L2 + ...
• Rn = Nominal strength = Real specific strength
• fRn = Design strength = Nominal strength
multiplied by a reduction factor (less than unity)
• f = Strength reduction factor (less than unity)
• L1 , L2 … : Various load cases (dead, live, …)
• α1 ,α2 … : Load factors (greater than unity)
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 20
11. 24/2/2013
CE370 Prof. A.harif 11
Design Philosophy
• Resistance ≥ Load effects
• For bending moments (using Dead and Live
loads):
• fMn ≥ αDMD + αLML + ...
• For shear forces and axial forces:
• fVn ≥ αDVD + αLVL + ...
• fPn ≥ αDPD + αLPL + ...
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 21
Design Philosophy
• fMn ≥ αDMD + αLML + ...
• fVn ≥ αDVD + αLVL + ...
• At ultimate state the, combined effect is called
“ultimate” (ultimate moment, ultimate shear…):
• fMn ≥ Mu = αDMD + αLML + ...
• fVn ≥ Vu = αDVD + αLVL + ...
• At serviceability state, the combined effect is
called “service” (service moment…)

Design Procedures
• There are two main methods for the
design of reinforced concrete,
prestressed concrete, as well as steel
structures:
The working stress method
The ultimate (strength) load method
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 23
Working Stress Method
• The basis of working stress method is that the permissible
(allowable) stresses for concrete and steel are not exceeded
any where in the structure when it is subjected to the worst
combination of working loads.
• There is no load magnification but the strength is reduced to
allowable limits (dividing by safety factors greater than unity)
• The working (allowable) stress method can be expressed as:
FS = Factor of safety, greater than unity
R = Resistance
Rall = Allowable resistance
L = Working load effects

Ultimate Limit State Method
• The object of design based on limit state method is to achieve
an acceptable probability that a structure will not reach a limit
state in its life time . Ultimate state limit is most used.
• This method of design takes into account the uncertainties in
the material properties and loads through strength reduction
factors and load magnifying factors.
• The ultimate limit state method can be expressed as:
f = Strength reduction factor, less than unity
R = Resistance
Li = Working load effects
αi = Load factors, greater than unity

αi = Load factors, greater than unity
• The summation sign denotes the combination of load effects
from different load sources, such as dead load, live load, wind
or earthquake loads, etc…
• In the limit state concept of design of reinforced concrete
structures, f and αi are called partial safety factors and are
determined using probabilistic methods.

ULS method versus WS method
• With a well reduced allowable strength, the working
stress (WS) method uses linear elastic analysis.
• The WS uses a single factor of safety whereas the
limit state method uses various partial safety factors
which can be adapted to the various uncertainties
associated with strength and loadings.
• This is the major advantage of the limit state method
• The working stress method does not account
properly for the variability of strength and loads and
is therefore unable to deliver an objective estimation
of the level of safety.
24/2/2013 February C370: Prof. A. Charif 27
Design strategy
• Usually members are designed using ultimate
limit state and serviceability limit state is then
checked (deflections, vibrations, cracks)
• Exceptions: Water tanks and similar liquid
containing structures

LOADING
• Accurate estimation of the loads that may be
applied on a structure during its life is very
important. It is a difficult task faced by the
structural designer.
• No load that is reasonably expected to occur
should be ignored.
• After loads are estimated, the next problem is
to decide the worst possible combinations of
these loads that might occur at one time.

Loading
Structural loading includes various types
• Dead load
• Live load
• Environment load (Wind, Earthquake..)
• Loads are specified in SBC 301
24/2/2013 February CE 370: Prof. A. Charif 31
Dead Loads
• Dead loads are loads of constant magnitude
that remain in one position. They include:
• Weight of the structure under consideration
such as beams, columns, frames, walls, floors,
ceilings, stairways, roofs etc.
• Any fixtures that are permanently attached to
the member or structure.

Dead Loads
Weight of all permanent construction (includes
self weight SW + superimposed dead load SDL)
DL = SW + SDL
SDL = Weight of any material resting on
member
Dead load is constant in magnitude and
location
Live Loads
• Live loads can change in magnitude and position. They include
occupancy loads, warehouse materials, equipments, …
• Other types of Live loads:
• Traffic loads for bridges: Concentrated loads of varying
magnitude caused by groups of trucks or train wheels.
• Miscellaneous loads:
– Soil Pressure (Retaining walls)
– Hydrostatic pressures (Water pressure on dams, tanks …)
– Blast loads (caused by explosions, sonic bombs, …)
– Centrifugal forces (as on curved bridges)

Loads produced by use and occupancy of the
structure.
Maximum loads likely to be produced by the

Snow or Ice loads
• Snow is a variable load, which may cover an
entire roof or only part of it.
• In the colder regions, snow and ice loads are
often quite important.
• The snow loads that are applied to a structure
are dependent upon many factors, including
geographic location, the pitch of the roof,
sheltering, and the shape of the roof.
• No snow load in KSA

CE370 Prof. A.harif 20
Rain loads - Ponding
• If water on a flat roof
accumulates faster than it runs
off, the result is called ponding
• Ponding causes the roof to
deflect into a dish shape that can
hold more water, which causes
greater deflections, and so on.
• The ponding process continues
until equilibrium is reached or
until collapse occurs.
• Ponding is a serious matter. A
Large number of flat-roof failures
occur due to ponding every year.
39
Wind
• The wind loads vary with the wind velocity as well as the
structural surfaces exposed to wind pressure.
• Each country has a “Wind Map” giving maximum wind
velocities
• Forces resulting from wind pressure are proportional to
exposed surfaces
• Wind action is dynamic in nature and generates inertia
forces

Seismic or Earthquake Loads
• During earthquakes the ground is displaced (acceleration),
and because structures are connected to the ground, they
are also displaced and vibrated. As a result, various
deformations and stresses are caused throughout the
structures.
• Although both dynamic, seismic and wind effects are very
different (a heavy structure is desirable to resist wind
loads, but increases seismic forces)
• Seismic forces depend on distribution of the mass and
stiffness in the building
• Each seismic country has a “seismic map”
41
Lateral Wind and Seismic Forces
• Wind ad seismic loads act mainly in the lateral
(horizontal) direction
• They also have vertical components but of less
magnitude.
• As any lateral direction can be considered, it is
common in design to consider two perpendicular
(principal) axes.
• For each direction, positive and negative orientations
must be considered.

Selection of Design Loads
• Building codes and specifications provide
conservative estimates of live-load magnitudes
for various situations.
• Commonly used specifications are:
• In KSA, SBC 301 define loads in buildings
• For highway bridges, American Association of
State Highway and Transportation Officials
(AASHTO).
43
Load Factors
• Load factors are numbers, almost always greater than
unity, which are used to increase the estimated loads
applied to structures.
• These factors account for the uncertainties involved in
estimating their magnitudes.
• They also account for possibilities of combining different
loads together
• Note: Load factors for dead loads are much smaller
than the ones used for live and environmental loads
because dead loads can be estimated more accurately
than live and environmental loads.

SBC Load Factors and Combinations
• SBC defines the critical design load effect (ultimate) as resulting
from any of the following seven combinations :

Load factors less than unity result either from small probabilities of
combinations of some load cases, or consider indirectly the upward
vertical seismic / wind effects (by reducing dead load).
Options in combinations (2) to (4) and alternate orientations of
wind / seismic loads, result in more than seven different values.

For single independent load effects (beam bending, shear…), the
critical combination is the one giving the maximum value.
For dependent load effects (such as axial force and bending in
columns), the critical combination is in general not obvious. The
designer must check safety for all possible combinations.

Example
47
The axial force values acting on a column have been determined:
• Dead load = 670 kN
• Live load from roof = 265 kN
• Live load from other floors = 1335 kN
• Wind compression = 310 kN Wind tension = 265 kN
• Seismic compression = 220 kN Seismic tension = 178 kN
• (Wind and Seismic loads acts in two opposite directions and cause
compression or tension forces on the column)
Determine the critical design (ultimate) axial force using SBC
Combinations (single load effect).
D = 670 kN, L = 1335 kN, Lr = 265 kN, W = 310 / - 265 kN
E = 220 / - 178 kN , F = T = R = H = 0
