Questions
Which syllabus does the Design of Concrete Structures course follow?
It follows the AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus for Design of Concrete Structures. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.
Will this help in the university examination?
Yes. Teaching is unit-wise as per the AKTU scheme, with previous-year question practice, MCQ tests and doubt sessions before the semester exam.
Is SP 16 and detailing taught?
Yes. Design is done with IS 456 and SP 16 charts, and each design ends with a reinforcement detail sketch as expected in AKTU exams.
