Numerical Evaluation of the Opening Effects on the Reinforced Concrete Slab Structural Performance
A finite element method was used in this study to investigate the effects of openings on the resistive behavior of concrete slabs. The presented modeling procedure is used to conduct numerical analyses on the response of reinforced concrete slab subjected to in‐plane monotonic loads in X (perpendicular to the beam) and Z (parallel to the beam ...
