Reinforced Concrete Design | Topic 8: Design of RC Beams Summary | Eurocode 2

Описание: Welcome to our Reinforced Concrete Design series to Eurocode 2.
In this lecture, Topic 8: Design Summary of Reinforced Concrete Beams, we bring together all the key concepts from previous lectures to outline the complete beam design process — from initial sizing and analysis to detailed reinforcement layout and serviceability checks.

📌 In this lecture, we:
✅ Summarise the ultimate and serviceability limit state design of reinforced concrete beams
✅ Explain the key design stages — from preliminary sizing to detailed reinforcement design
✅ Define the effective span of beams and how it is calculated per Eurocode 2
✅ Discuss member sizing, cover requirements, and practical section dimensions
✅ Explore the advantages of continuous beams and the role of moment redistribution
✅ Highlight additional design factors — including anchorage, curtailment, and detailing of reinforcement at beam-column connections

👷‍♀️ Delivered by Dr Margi Vilnay – Senior Lecturer in Structural Engineering, Chartered Engineer, and Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
