6 sections • 14 lectures • 2h 23m total length

Introduction to PROKON4:37
in this Lecture will Discuss the Following:

1-General Information about the course
2-Why it's Widly used
3-topics will be talking about in the course.
4-Differences Between PROKON and Similar softwares
5-PROKON interface.
Structural System.3:51
Types of Slabs will be Discussed:
1-Solid Slab
2-Ribbed Slab

Will not Be Discussing "Post- Tension slab" Because this type is a little complex and the pre-stressed concrete course is a MUST to Fully Understand it.

Slab Prokon Interface15:55
Navigate the slab design interface to input dimensions, depths, material properties, and load cases, and review bending moments, deflection, and reinforcement outcomes.
Load Calculations5:05
Calculating Each Dead Load and Live Load acting on the Slab Depending on the type of Structure use.
Excel Sheet is provided for Dead Load Calculation.
Design using PROKON (Data Input).8:54
How to correctly use PROKON and how to input the right data to get the right Results.
Reinforcement and Moment Deflection (Output).15:11
How to and determine if the design is correct and read the Reinforcing depending on the Moment Diagram delivered by PROKON.

Solid Slab Design and Layout2:23
design a solid slab layout with cross ribs to ensure uniform thickness and even load distribution. reinforce bottom and top per minimums, and select rib count by span and load.
Solid Slab input and Design From A to Z11:24
in this Lecture, you will learn how to Design a solid slab ready to be constructed, using an example.
Excel Sheet of Load Calculations is provided, Note that you will use the same Excel Sheet used in Ribbed Slab but in this sheet make sure to enter the value 0 for rib weight and thickness.
Please Check Resources for the provided test example.

Requirements
