Strut-and-Tie Model and Numerical Simulation of Sleeve Grouting Connection for Concrete-Filled Steel Tube Column

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
To study the performance and failure mechanisms of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) column sleeve grouting connections, theoretical analysis and finite element simulation were performed for the structure in the connection.

Application of strut-and-tie models for assessing RC half-joints not complying with current code specifications

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2022
The work described is concerned with an investigation of the effectiveness of the use of strut-and-tie models for the structural assessment of half joints. Such elements form a part of many existing bridges which, although not complying with current code

Modified interactive strut-and-tie model for shear strength prediction of RC corbels

open access: yesEngineering and Applied Science Research, 2019
On the basis of the modified Kupfer and Gerstle’s biaxial failure criterion ofconcrete, amodified interactive strut-and-tie model (MISTM) to predict the nominal shear strength of RC corbels was derived and is proposed in this paper.

Punching shear in flat slabs by strut and tie model [PDF]

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2021
Abstract Research on behavior of flat slabs under punching shear, performed by Kinnunen, Regan and Muttoni influenced the main design recommendations. Meanwhile, studies about strut and tie model developed by Schlaich for beams, deep beams and corbels also influenced these design codes.

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 ...

Experimental investigation of the strut efficiency factor of bottle-shaped struts on local models and reinforced concrete deep beams [PDF]

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
The design of concrete structural elements with discontinuous stress distribution is often done using strut and tie models and involves the design and detailing of reinforcement, as well as verifying the strength of struts and nodal zones.

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 ...

Reliability analysis of strut-and-tie models for the design of deep beams according to NBR 6118 (2023) [PDF]

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
The strut-and-tie method (STM) applied in the structural design of deep beams is a semi-probabilistic method, that does not take directly into account both the uncertainties associated with the variables involved and those inherent in the calculation ...

Investigation on shear behavior of reinforced concrete deep beams without shear reinforcement strengthened with fiber reinforced polymers

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
Shear failure is an undesirable type of failure in terms of structural safety. Particularly, reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams without shear reinforcement are vulnurable to shear failure. In order to improve the shear behavior of such beams, externally
