This volume is considered part of a series of books that covers the subject of Reinforced Concrete Design. The success and the positive feedback that we have received from our students and colleagues have provided the inspiration for us to proceed with volume three. Due to the numerous changes in the provisions of the 2007 edition of the Egyptian Code of Practice ECP 203, the publication of this volume became more of a necessity than mere addition. ‘The first vol _.e covers the fundamentals of reinforced concrete design and the design of beams whereas the second volume focuses primarily on the design of slabs, columns and frames. This third volume covers the following topics: ‘+ Arches, Special Types of Frames and Vierendeel. ‘+ Deep Beams and Corbels. + Control of Deflections and Cracking. ‘+ Design of Shallow and Deep Foundations. + Strut-and-Tie Model. * Prestressed Conerete. Numerous illustrative examples are given, the solution of which has been supplied so as to supplement the theoretical background and to familiarize the reader with the steps involved in actual design problem solving, To ensure the accuracy, all of the examples in this book are solved and verified using EXCEL, spread sheet programs that were prepared exclusively for this book. In writing the book, the authors are conscious of a debt to many sources, to friends, colleagues, and co-workers in the field. Finally, this is as good a place as any for the authors to express their indebtedness to their honorable professors of Egypt, Canada and the U.S.A. Their contributions in introducing the authors to the field will always be remembered with the deepest gratitude. ‘The book is aimed at two different groups. First, by treating the material in a logical and unified form, it is hoped that it can serve as a useful text for undergraduate and graduate student courses on reinforced concrete. Secondly, as a result of the continuing activity in the design and construction of reinforced concrete structures, it will be of value to practicing structural engineers. The authors strongly recommend that the Code be utilized as a companion publication to this book. TABLE OF CONTENTS = 41.

ARCHES, SPECIAL TYPES OF FRAMES AND TRUSSES _ Photo 1.1 Arched reinforced concrete bridge. 1.1 Introduction This chapter presents the use and design of reinforced concrete arches. and trusses as supporting elements of systems that cover halls having relatively large spans. It covers also the design and the construction of the saw tooth roofs in which the light from the windows is directly reflected by the roof inside the hall giving a uniform distribution of natural light. Choosing the most economical structural system depends on many factors such ‘as the type of soil, the architectural features of the building, and most femal I" importantly the span that needs to be covered. ‘Table 1.1 gives the suitable TOrETt COCO structural system according t0 the span of the hall (short direction). For example, simple girders are suitable for relatively short spans (7-10 m) while frames are appropriate for medium spans (12-25m). In contrast, arches and trusses are suitable to cover large spans. od L ‘Table 1.1 Choosing of structural system according to the span v" * Seo, AA ipestaeacn Span — | 2 simple beam subjected to uniform loads Simple girders 710m Frames Bm ‘Arch with ate 240m — certs compecsion Trusses 2040 m Vierendeel Systems 30-40 m - \ 14) bg 300-400 mea F Frame Spacing (2) !

A-A and Sec. B-B. At Sec. B-B the inctined simple beams and the roof slabs are at the level of the frame. At See. B-B, these elements are at the top level of the posts. As shown in Sec. C-C, the frames are connected together in the out of plane direction at three levels, namely at the girder level, approximately at mid-height of the column (frame leg) and at the level of the foundations where semelles are provided to-support the walls. Note: As the rain water is accumulated at the lowest point of the slab, it is essential to choose the shape of cross-section of the girder of the frame in the form of a Y-shape so that there is sufficient space for the rain water and the necessary slopes for the gutter.

One of the disadvantages of reinforced concrete trusses is that formwork of concrete and the detailing of reinforcement are complicated. However, in special cases of saw-tooth roofs in which the north is parallel to the span of the hall, the truss may give a convenient solution. Figure 1.9 shows the general layout of a hall 20.0 ms wide and 25.0 ms long in which the north is parallel to the short direction and is covered so that a uniform, distribution of natural light is provided. Reinforced concrete trusses are utilized as the main supporting elements and are arranged parallel to the short direction of the hall. ‘The statical system can be summarized as follows: ‘+ The trusses are arranged every 5.0 ms in order to obtain a reasonably economic system. ‘© A system of horizontal continuous beams (called the Y- beams) are supported on the trusses every 5.0 ms. ‘+ The inclined roof consists of a system of one-way slabs. At the location of the trusses, the slabs are supported on the diagonal members. Between trusses, inclined beams are provided to support the slabs. The inclined beams are simply supported at posts from one side and directly at the Y-bear from the other side ‘+ The posts are supported directly on the Y-beams and are connected in the plane of the ¥-beams by the ridge beam. ‘These posts can be assumed to resist axial forces only. 30 515.0:250m of ae 415.042 Plan Fig. 1.10a North-light saw-tooth system (Truss) (Noth direction is parallel to the span) 31 (Cquo.)

C-C ‘Fig. 1.10d North-light saw-tooth system (truss) (cont.) 34 Approximate Analysis of RIC Trusses Unlike steel trusses, reinforced concrete trusses are subjected to direct loading from the surrounding slabs. Moreover due to the rigidity of the members connecting bending moments are induced. Truss members are mainly subjected to normal force, and therefore bent bars are not. used in trusses and the reinforcement is distributed symmetrically ‘The intemal forces in the members of a truss are: 1- The axial forces due to the concentrated loads at the joints. 2- The bending moments and shearing forces due to the direct loads ‘on the members of the truss on which the slabs are supported, and 3- The bending moments and shearing forces due to the fact that in reinforced concrete trusses, the joints are partially rigid ‘The intemal forces can be obtained using the computer programs. It should be noted that the effect of the partial rigidity of the joints has to be evaluated. ‘The approximate dimensions of the truss can be obtained from Fig. 1.10. spa 36 a Fig. 1.10 Truss approximate dimensions 35 1.4 Vierendeel Girders Vierendeel girders are similar to trusses except that they do not have diagonals 4s shown in Fig. 1.11. Moreover the connecting joints are rigid such that they develop moment. Vierendeel girders are often used in transfer floors of high-rise buildings to support planted columns giving a wide space in the floor below as shown in Fig. 1.12. They also can be used in saw-tooth roofs when indirect sunlight is required as shown in Fig. 1.13a and Fig 1.13b. A Vierendeel girder consists of a top chord, a bottom chord and vertical ‘members. The system is externally statically determinate, while itis internally indeterminate. Internally, itis 3n times statically indeterminate, where n is the ‘number of panels. ‘The exact analysis of a Vierendeel girder is quite compticated. In the past, approximate solutions were used to calculate the force in the different members. Nowadays, computer programs are used to compute the straining actions. In Such a case, the members are modeled as 2D frame elements, while the joints are modeled as rigid joints that permit moment transfer among members.

Thermal effects induce additional straining actions that lead to additional reinforcement in the structural members. For example, continuous beams running over several spans are affected by the stresses induced due to temperature. The ECP 203 specifies the use of these joints when the dimensions of the building exceed 30- 35 m in hot regions and 40-45 in warm regions. Expansion joints are achieved by a complete vertical separation in the super- structure at the location of the joint. This is usually achieved by placing foam sheets with a thickness of 20 mm. No need, however, for separating the foundations at the location of the expansion joint as shown in Fig. 1.15. Expansion joints are made in such a way to prevent water and moisture from Penetrating the building by providing insulation material. The insulation ‘material is provided at roof level as shown in Fig. 1.16a as well as at the Aifferent floors levels as shown in Fig, 1.16b. It should be mentioned that the requirements of the ECP 203 can be waived if the designer carry out an analysis that takes into account the temperature effects. 40 7 | I$ s Z| |Y-beam, ig 2 a5 7 ' ptt < + | 1- Frame with Y-beam (L < 20m). 2 true (0-20 0n) ‘A-Main system parallel to the north ;-—_ sen LA ‘Seo 8-8 ‘Main system normal to the north Fig. 1.14 Choosing the appropriate structural system according to the span and the direction of the north 4- Frame (L <20 m), 6 5 stab ' 2 Arch witha to(L=20 - 40m) 1 i 7 “Fe .3- Vierendee!

If the loads of two adjacent columns differ significantly, the differential settlement becomes large ‘and could affect the foundation. This is can occur in case of low rise building adjacent to high rise building as shown in Fig. 1.14. The footings in this case should be completely separated (20 mm apart) to allow the settlement of each column to take place independently Photo 1.6 Settlement joints is provided between low and high-rise buildings fee eee ge eee ee eee 1 . 1 | high rise i Setiment building [tarot tice wang |} stant oa Low tee tain etaka Section 1 Low te “Gum Caen Aettored Conroe conpressie ‘| ral ssvap foam Pain Conroe Pate roy roar at Detail-A Fig. 1.17 Settelment joint details. 45 4.6 End gables End gable consists of a group of columns supporting continuous beams instead of the typical frames used as the main system of the hall as shown in Fig. 1.15a. ‘The spacing between the columns is chosen in such a way that the area of the enclosed walls should not be more than 25-30 m?. This is to facilitate the construction of the brick wall, to reduce its buckling length, and to increase its capacity for resisting wind loads If a future extension of the hall is expected, another system is provided at the fend as shown in Fig. 1.15b. In such a case, a frame is used at the end of the hall, End gable consists of a group of columns that are connected to the frame by dowels to reduce their buckling length and to allow for possible future Gemolishing the wall. The length of the dowels should not be less than the development length of the steel bars (La) as shown in Fig. 1.15c.
