Abstract:Reinforced concrete structure course is a compulsory subject for students majoring in civil engineering, which is also a significant theoretical foundation for their future design and construction. Engineering accidents are often caused because of defects of materials, construction and design. Based on the structural analysis, these accidents can be considered as the large deformation and failure of the load-carrying members, e.g., beam, column and plate. In the teaching process, theoretical analysis of selective cases combining with the main points of the course can strengthen students' understanding of the knowledge topics and improve their safety awareness. Meanwhile, reinforced methods and preventive measures can be proposed according to the knowledge from the course. This pattern based on practical engineering can develop students' interests in reinforced concrete structure course and establish a theoretical foundation for their further design and construction.
