This course is structured for Civil engineering students as well as professional civil engineers to give them concept and theory behind the reinforced concrete design.

Becoming a civil engineer is a dream of everybody nowadays. But nobody wants to practice. Practice is very important in order to learn.

But wait, what to practice? You should know something first in order to practice it.

This is the first basic course where you will learn the basics of Reinforced Concrete Design and basics of Civil Engineering as well.

In this course, the students will be able to understand the basic concepts behind RCD. The main topics that are going to be covered are Concrete,, its ingredients, Why we neglect tensile strength, why we provide reinforcement and finally terms and concepts behind singly reinforced beam and then design problem.

I have made some other courses related to the field of civil engineering like, solving determinate beams and frames, and deflections of beams. Make sure to check those as well.

If you really want to learn the first module of civil engineering, then this is for you.

If you have any problem understanding the course then shoot ma a message and I will provide you the most appropriate answer to help you in studies.
