Design of deep pile caps by strut-and-tie models [PDF]

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2019
There are many methods for designing pile caps, but there is still no consensus on which one provides the best approach for the practical engineers. In Brazil, many structural designers use the classical Blévot method; however, the applicability of the ...

Proposition and analysis of strut and tie models for short corbels from techniques of topology optimization

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2021
Reinforced concrete short corbels are components characterized to represent typical conditions of geometrical and static discontinuity. In general, the classical bending theory is not valid for their design.

Analysis of confined masonry with Strut and Tie models [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2020
Strut & Tie (S-T) models are used quite commonly for the analysis of reinforced concrete structures and in the calculation of masonry structures. Creating the S-T model of the confined masonry is slightly different from models of reinforced concrete or ...

Automated optimization-based generation and quantitative evaluation of Strut-and-Tie models

open access: yesComputers and Structures, 2020
Strut-and-Tie modelling (STM) is a well-known approach to design D-regions in reinforced concrete structures. Because the STM method is based on lower-bound analysis, finding a suitable truss-analogy model is the most important aspect to guarantee good ...

On the optimal strut-and-tie models and design approach for the cable-pylon anchorage zone

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2019
The cable-pylon anchorage zone is a typical D-region in a cable-stayed bridge, for which there has been no uniform simplified design method until now. In this paper, based on the extensive statistics of actual projects, topology optimization techniques ...

Proposal and experimental validation of simplified strut-and-tie models on dapped-end beams

open access: yesEngineering Structures, 2019
Dapped-end beams are frequent precast concrete elements. Spalling on the top of the hanger reinforcement has been observed to be often their governing failure mode.

Graphic statics in a continuum: Strut-and-tie models for reinforced concrete

open access: yesComputers and Structures, 2020
This research bridges the gap between the numerical layout optimization method and the geometry-based analysis and design method of graphic statics. The study connects the two methods for the application of strut-and-tie models in reinforced concrete ...

Strut-and-tie models for linear and nonlinear behavior of concrete based on topological evolutionary structure optimization (ESO)

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2019
The search for representative resistant systems for a concrete structure requires deep knowledge about its mechanical behavior. Strut-and-tie models are classic analysis procedures to the design of reinforced concrete regions where there are stress ...

STM-based symbolic regression for strength prediction of RC deep beams and corbels [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
This study uses symbolic regression with a strut-and-tie model to predict the shear strength of reinforced concrete deep beams (RCDBs) and corbels (RCCs).
