Plagiarism
An assignment is designed to be a product of your own study and your own thought. It is not intended to
be a piece of work which merely reproduces details, information or ideas from a study guide, from booksor articles, from the Internet.
If you do this, you commit plagiarism. Plagiarism is the act of copying word for word withor without
acknowledgmentfrom study sources (e.g. books, articles, the Internet). In other words, you must submit
your own ideas in your own words, sometimes interspersing relevant short quotations that are properly
referenced.
Yes, simply copying a few pages from the prescribed book is plagiarism. Pasting paragraphs from
Wikipedia into your assignment is plagiarism. And it does not stop being plagiarism if you mention the
source.
Skilled scientific writers can use direct block quotations to make a specific point. They know what they
are doing. You still need to develop your own voice, your own style of arguing the point. Do not
plagiarise.

Note that you also commit plagiarism if you copy the assignment of another student. We do encourage
you to work together and form study groups, but you are expected to prepare and submit your own
assignments.
When we receive two or more identical assignments, we are unable to work out who copied from whom.
We will therefore penalize both students.
If you commi t plagiarism you wi ll be penalized and given no marks for your assignment. This will
have a serious effect on your chances to succeed in your studies because you wi ll have no
semester mark.
Furthermore, you may be penalised or subjected to disciplinary proceedings by the University.
Plagiarism is also an offence in terms of the law.
A Signed Declaration
Every essay type assignment we receive must include the following declaration along with your name
and the date:
We will subtract marks if this declaration is absent from assignment, just as we will subtract marks if yourassignment does not have a Table of contents, List of references cited, and so on.
I declare that this assignment is my own work and that all sourcesquoted have been acknowledged by appropr iate references.

QUESTION 1
A reinforced concrete beam and slab system for an office block is as shown in Figure 1. Assume the
total factored design load for the slab to be 12 kN/m2. Calculate the flexural steel reinforcement for the
slab. Use characteristic strength of concrete (fcu) = 25 MPa and of steel (fy) = 450 MPa, assume severe
exposure conditions. Sketch the slab layout with reinforcements.

QUESTION 2
The beam shown in Figure 2is part of a reinforced concrete frame structure. The nominal design loads
on each span are dead load (Gk) = 160 kN and imposed load (Qk) is 120 kN. Calculate the area of steel
reinforcement steel maximum sagging and hogging moments. Take characteristic strength of concrete
(fcu) = 30 N/mm2, characteristic strength of steel (fy) = 450 MPa and cover to reinforcement c = 25 mm.

QUESTION 4
It is proposed to construct a cantilever retaining wall on a spread base to support level ground and a foot
path adjacent to a road. The existing ground may be excavated as necessary to construct the wall, and
the excavated ground behind the wall is to be reinstated by backfilling with a granular material. A graded
drainage material will be provided behind the wall, with adequate drainage system at the bottom. Given:
Height of fill to be retained is 4.5 m above top of base
Surcharge due to the foot path is 20 kN/m2

QUESTION 5
The height from floor to floor of a 10 storey reinforced concrete frame structure is 3500 mm. The
structure is braced with beams about the y-y axis only and all beams are 550 x 250 mm and slabs are
180 mm thick. If the column dimensions are 500 mm in the y-direction and 400 mm in the x-direction
calculate the effective height for the column about each axis and state whether the column is short or
slender.
A central circular column is 500 mm in diameter and supports approximately equal arrangements of
beams. If the column carries an axial load of 3500 kN at the ground floor level and given the
characteristic strength of concrete as 40 Mpa and steel is 450 Mpa design the column. Information not
given shall be reasonably assumed.
