Concrete reinforcing bars and bar systems have been evolving over the last century. In this webinar, we will provide an overview of late 19th and early 20th-century concrete reinforcement systems. We will focus on three aspects of concrete construction from this era: a) the forgotten, but not obsolete, variety of reinforcing steel bars, b) the bars systems used for beams, columns, and simple one-way spanning floor slabs, and c) the girderless concrete floor system (two-way flat slabs). In addition, we will learn about the use of epoxy-coated reinforcing steel (also known as green bar or epoxy bar) and glass-fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) in an effort to reduce or eliminate the corrosion associated with reinforcing steel. This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of course materials.
Note to Webinar Attendees:
Our live webinars (web seminars) are considered as "Courses of Learning" (live courses) by the New York State Board for Engineering and Land Surveying and as "Timed & Monitored Courses" by the Ohio State Board for Professional Engineers and Surveyors. Unlike the traditional seminars held in a classroom setting, our webinars deliver live instruction to your home or office. You will be able to interact directly with our instructor during a webinar through audio channel or chat box. However, you must attend the webinar at a scheduled date and time. We will verify your attendance through our online webinar platform. The certificate of completion will not be issued unless you attend the webinar and pass a quiz (all quiz questions will be reviewed during the webinar). Thank you for your cooperation.
