Summary
Within this subject students will gain skills how to design and assess reliability of precast reinforced concrete structures.
This subject directly follow on the subjects Elasticity and Plasticity, Building Structures, Actions on Building Structures, Concrete Structures Elements, Concrete and Masonry Structures, Prestressed Concrete and Concrete Structures.
By study of this subject students acquire knowledge about design and reliability assessment of precast reinforced concrete structures and as well about their fabrication and erection.
