Structures these 3 r relatively easy CV6108 Analysis and Design of Tall Buildings This is a bit tough, but ll be very useful.. Philosophy and design criteria of tall buildings; structural systems for tall buildings: momentresisting frames, shear walls, braced frames; P-Delta effects and instability; structural design process: functional requirements; design criteria and loading: dead, live, wind, and earthquake loads; preliminary and computer-aided proportioning; analysis of tall buildings; very tall buildings including framed tube, tube in tube, trussed tube and hat trusses, etc. CV6109 Advanced Concrete Technology if interested in theory, can take this Concrete constituent materials; properties of fresh concrete: workability, superplasticizer, selfcompacting concrete; hydration and microstructure formation of concrete: hydration process, microstructure; durability of concrete; cement replacement materials; evaluation of concrete structures: cracking in concrete, testing of hardened concrete, assessment of concrete quality. CV6313 Shallow and Deep Foundations u r expert in this anyway.. Footing and raft foundations: design considerations, bearing capacity, settlement, combined footings, soil-raft interaction analysis, pile-raft foundations. Deep Foundations: response of piles to vertical and horizontal loads, load transfer, dynamic pile testing and static pile load tests.
