Self Restrained Cracking of Reinforced Concrete Elements
2017It is widely considered as almost impossible to avoid cracking of concrete in a common structure under service loads: a variety of reasons contribute to develop cracking, but the main principle is that concrete is a quasi-brittle material with a low capacity for deformation under tensile stress.

Concrete Shear Failure in Reinforced-Concrete Elements
Journal of Structural Engineering, 1996Orthogonally reinforced panels subjected to in-plane shear and normal loads in certain cases fail by a mode called concrete shear failure, because of a considerable sliding which occurs between the faces of the ultimate critical crack. This mode is observed when the transverse reinforcement is considerably less than the longitudinal reinforcement.

Finite Element Analysis of Reinforced Concrete
Journal of the Structural Division, 1973Cracking, crushing, and yielding of reinforced concrete beams is investigated by the finite element technique. Three-dimensional, 20-node isoparametric elements are used. The analysis incorporates the elasto-plastic behavior of concrete and reinforcing steel and the cracking of concrete stressed in tension beyond a limiting tensile stress.

Finite element analysis of reinforced concrete elements in a cracked state
Computers & Structures, 1990Abstract The finite element analysis of reinforced concrete beams in a cracked state is presented. The modeling of moment-curvature relationships is analyzed and the different definitions of the effective or mean inertia are unified by means of the Tension Stiffening Function.

Embedding of reinforcements in reinforced concrete elements implemented in DENA
Computers & Structures, 1991Abstract A model for embedding reinforcements in concrete elements for analysis of reinforced concrete structures is presented. The mathematical formulations and implementation procedure is explained. The model is implemented using the software DENA. A numerical example is used to verify the validity of the model.

Reinforced Concrete Membrane Elements with Perforations
Journal of Structural Engineering, 1990An experimental investigation is decribed in which perforated reinforced concrete panel elements were subjected to uniformly distributed, monotonically increasing edge loads. Test parameters included the presence of a perforation, detailing of the reinforcement, and type of load condition.

A theory on the performance of reinforced-concrete elements
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Construction Materials, 2019It has always been assumed that the bond between concrete and rebars, whether plain or ribbed, provides adequate engagement for the desired performance of reinforced-concrete elements. However, it is conceivable that the surface conditions of rebars could influence this performance.

Bamboo as reinforcement in structural concrete elements
Cement and Concrete Composites, 2005Abstract It is a fact that the construction industry is the main consumer of energy and materials in most countries. The pursuit of sustainable development, defined in the Brundtland Report 1987 as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”, has become a major issue

Structural Fiber Reinforced Concrete Elements
Solid State Phenomena, 2017The building industry offers a wide range of materials which can be used for the production of various structural elements. Fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) is a material which is more frequently utilized for concrete structures. The reason is its physical and mechanical properties which contribute to traditional concrete elements and structures various

Local Stress of Reinforced Concrete Elements
Key Engineering Materials, 2016The subject of the article is to apply the European standard when appraising the element’s bearing capacity in concentrated pressure under the anchoring slabs of pre-stressed reinforcement units. Method of concentrated pressure analysis. Method of performing expertise of the effects of lateral tensile forces.
