Purpose and Background
This webinar includes a discussion of several vintage structural systems, some of which are over 100-years old, that are encountered in existing older buildings. The presentation will also include an example renovation project involving a vintage reinforced concrete slab system.
Benefits and Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:
- Explain one and two-way hollow clay tile and unit masonry joist systems
- Describe design and construction aspects of the SMI System.
- Explain an adaptive reuse project that involved the SMI System.
- List different types of vintage reinforcing systems.
- Explain hollow clay tile arched floor systems.
- Describe one and two-way hollow clay tile and unit masonry joist systems.
Assessment of Learning Outcomes
Students' achievement of the learning outcomes will be assessed via a short post-assessment (true-false, multiple choice and fill in the blank questions).
