CE6016            PREFABRICATED STRUCTURES                            L T P C 3 0 0 3

OBJECTIVES:
To impart knowledge to students on modular construction, industrialised construction and design of prefabricated elements and construction methods.

UNIT I             INTRODUCTION                                                                                                       9
Need  for  prefabrication  –  Principles  –  Materials  –  Modular  coordination  –  Standarization  –
Systems – Production – Transportation – Erection.

UNIT II            PREFABRICATED COMPONENTS                                                                         9
Behaviour of structural components – Large panel constructions – Construction of roof and floor slabs – Wall panels – Columns – Shear walls

UNIT III           DESIGN PRINCIPLES                                                                                               9
Disuniting of structures- Design of cross section based on efficiency of material used – Problems in design because of joint flexibility – Allowance for joint deformation.

UNIT IV          JOINT IN STRUCTURAL MEMBERS                                                                      9
Joints for different structural connections – Dimensions and detailing – Design of expansion joints

UNIT V           DESIGN FOR ABNORMAL LOADS                                                                         9
Progressive  collapse  –  Code  provisions  –  Equivalent  design  loads  for  considering  abnormal effects such as earthquakes, cyclones, etc., - Importance of avoidance of progressive collapse.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
OUTCOMES:
The student shall be able to design some of the prefabricated elements and also have the knowledge of the construction methods in using these elements.
